Ph balance

I know this a weird question but Do condoms throw off ph balance.? Cause I been messing with someone and we done it multiple times ph balance has always been good and fine but this time my ph is off since we had sex two days ago with a condom unless the semen actually got there or the condom broke on accident.

Setraline experiences

Got diagnosed with severe anxiety and borderline depression today and they’ve given me setraline. Going to start taking it tomorrow but was wondering everyone’s experiences with it. Obviously it affects everyone differently but how did you guys get on with it
