Can anyone please be so kind and direct me to a website that discusses the Halachos of what is permitted/forbidden to recite (Shema, Hashem's name, etc.) after relations?

Try jewishsexuality.com I think think that's the web address & they should have info on that.
As far as I know you should try to say Krias Shma B4 but if you didn't you still have to say it yes with Hashems name.

What do you mean? As long as you wash your hands, everything is permitted...

Although Chassidim try to go to the Mikva, we don't pasken anymore today that one should not daven before mikva. We hold that "divrei torah ainum mekablin tumah - words of Torah and prayer to not recieve impurity"

Hope this helped.

Uri, it's the Bochurim who are actually lucky. "The less you feed it, the less you need it". This is the real- real truth, not just a saying. A Bochur, with a little hard-work in the beginning, can learn to completely let go of lust to the point that he just forgets about it, while a married man has to keep walking a tight-rope of balance!

Uri,

I wish I would have dealt with this head on  when I was a bachur! Do you know what kind of damage this wreaks in a marriage? I'm not going to get into details - do you know how difficult it is to appreciate a Bas Yisrael when she's competing with sdom v'amorah? And don't you think she feels that - and creates a horrid cycle.

You are the lucky one; IY"H b'ito u'bzmano you will be able to start with a fresh start with your wife ; not have to rebuild like the rest of us. And B"H rebuild we are - but what a bracha to meet a kallah b'kedusha u'b'tahara! (And of course, we can't reiterate enough - marriage will not cure any of this! Doesn't matter who you marry! No way Jose!)

I am sure the married chevra agree.

Chazak V'Ematz! And I"YH you will be paid back 100 times more in your married life for all of you difficulties now.

As far as insensitivity, Rabbenu Guard, Uri has a point, us married chevra do use this forum for posting about shaalos about marital intimacy; while some is obviously going to be in our post and shouldn't be avoided because it's so part and parcel of our issues - specific issues as here - such as permitted acts , hanhagos, niddah issues - perhaps should have a separate board or section, so that our dear bachurim don't have to read them if they want to avoid them, just as there is a separate board for women's issues for we who would like to avoid them?

Kanesher and Uri, I hear you... I don't know if these kind of issues come up enough to warrant a board of its own, and if I did make one, the Bochurim addicts would probably feel compelled to check it out anyway
