Having said that, it might be nothing to do with condoms at all. Could be an allergy to bubble bath, a thrush infection, or a number of other things, including STIs. Think about going for a checkup.
If you have problems every time you have a new partner, make sure you take it slowly the first time, and use some water-based lubricant.
The bladder problem thing - you may be prone to Cysitis which can be cause by too much sex...
Try using different hygeine products - no artificial colors, perfumes etc... and used Glycerin based soaps. Even try changing your Washing Machine Powder!!
Also what may be happening is that the condoms can make a woman more dry and you may be cutting/stretching the skin and making it really sore. Get a big tube'o'lube - KY or something...
But best advice, Like Karla said - go talk to the doctor about it - especially the bladder thing. Get yourself tested at a clinic - professional, friendly and frankly non-embarrasing... just for peace of mind... plus you can get a supply of the essentials!
So i would sya change the type of condom you use and see if that has any effect.
