Having sex with a person of a different race

I'm white and my boyfriend is black.

Details: So ever since we started to have sex I get this feeling like a bladder infection but it is not. It is like an irritation. (Not a STD, we are both clean). It just itches and burns when I pee.

My doctor says it is because he is black (it sounds bad, but its not). What the doctor said to me, it is because he is black his immune system is stronger than mine and because it is stronger it causes my body problems and there is nothing I can do about it. The only thing I can do is take Azo after sex and the Cranberry Azo in the morning. And the only way to really stop it is to stop having sex, and we both don't want to do that.

I know there are other inter-racial couples out there, and I was just wonder what you do.

In order to believe what your doc said, you have to think that there is something in normal sex that involves your immune system, that it affects your bladder and that different skin color causes differences in immunity. That just doesn't make any sense.

If Azo works, the problem is a bacterial yeast infection in your urinary system. It could also be from soap residue or some product you're using remaining around the opening of the uretha. Using only a washcloth leaves soap in the area. Try taking a sit down bath after sex to make sure no soap is left there.

You should also have your urine tested for sugar. One of the symptoms of diabetes is burning when you pee. You can get ketone test strips at a drug store.

Bottom line, you have a bacterial infection and bacteria are color blind. If you can't resolve it, get a second opinion from an Ob-Gyn.

Quite frankly, your Dr. sounds like a racist clown.....I hope that you can find a better Dr. You deserve better care & advice. Good luck.

not to be a as but WHAT THE FUCK........

It is nothing you need to ask about. The doctor you saw never said any direct thing against inter-racial mating, which if he did would be disproven by science (I guess he was white anyway, wasn't he? See, I told you.).

In short, do you know why older people suffer the flu much less frequently than younger ones? or than when they were younger? Answer: because they acquire new/additional immnunity from all those bouts which they suffered, once they heal from them. Immunity they thus acquire is then for life. With passage of time, fewer and fewer types of the limited number of flu virues remain; and, it is those remaining ones which show symptoms in latter years. Younger persons are exposed more frequently until the fence up each time they have a new flu. And so on.

Soon, you will wither your complaint.

We also have a saying in Arabic which means the same thing. Also always remember, if it is not health-threatening and only sensational and time is in your favour, WHY BOTHER!?

Let's just forget race and immunity and look at the reality. This guy is infectious to you. The choice is clear get another boyfriend or keep suffering.

Through the ages many a specie has wanted to mate with other species. This no doubt caused problems, manly that when an animal had to pee it burned. This phenomenon baffled scientists right through the dark ages. Lucky a great man named Mozart Strous came up with an ingenious plan. He built an arc with two of every animal so his cousin Noa could keep an eye on those randy buggers. Lucky all the inter-specie erotica stopped and the world was saved from the terrible plagues of Egypt. So in short find a new boyfriend or use a bit of KY and a condom. But hey I think the story really gets the point across.
