Hi,

This can possibly be due to a hypersensitivity to sperm protein or any of the other chemicals in the semen.

Please do look into any other contributory factors for the same. Good genital hygiene is important and needs to be practiced.

It is advised to look into other causes of the itchy rashes in your wife.

Do consult a Dermatologist and get the routine investigations done.

With Regards
