I’m 19, been sexually active for about 2.5 years. I’ve never gotten wet on my own before. Never knew i was supposed to get wet till i was 18 and heard people talking about it. Looking back, it explains why my first time was uncomfortable. I don’t think it’s an issue of “finding what i like” or emotional connection to my partner.

I usually rely on receiving oral but when I don’t, it’s really uncomfortable especially if a condom is used. After I was r*ped two years ago, I started getting chronic yeast and BV and I think my dryness is making me more susceptible to it. Gyno said my estrogen levels are probably fine. I just want to have sex without being self-conscious and then having to treat the yeast/BV that comes after.
