OK im a 16/f and ive only had sex twice.. i know for sure that neither of the people ive had sex with has an STD. But ive been having stomach cramps lately, and it burns when i go to the bathroom. Could that be an std?
babiigirl answered Thursday July 19 2007, 6:41 pm: Im not completely sure because im not a doctor but like alot of the others said it sounds like you have an UTI. I had one 10 days ago and i have 1 now. If you have the urge to use the bathroom constantly throughout the day but when you get the nothing comes out except a little and your bladder still feels full and it burns its probly a UTI.
You need to go to the doctor because there are not any home remedies or over the counter drugs that will cure UTI's. You can take the over the counter pill Uristat until you are able to get to a doctor but they say only use that for two days max. [ babiigirl's advice column | Ask babiigirl A Question ]
rubytuesday answered Tuesday July 17 2007, 5:12 pm: The other answers are correct. It could be a couple of different things, so you need to see a doctor.
But, the MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION here is that you are even concerned about having an STD in the first place. I'm assuming that you are asking this because you did not use a condom?
I certainly hope that that is not the case. But if it is, let this be your lesson for the future. Do not gamble by not using a condom, no matter what the circumstances, or you may have much bigger problems to worry about. [ rubytuesday's advice column | Ask rubytuesday A Question ]
clouded_bluee answered Tuesday July 17 2007, 12:47 pm: It could be possible that you have an UTI ( Urinary Tract Infection. ) This causing it to always make you feel as if you have to go to the bathroom, and when you do go to the bathroom it's a little tinkle and it burns. To stop the burning and the constant feeling of having to go to the bathroom you can take a pill called Uristat (sp?) which can be bought at a local drugstore, something like walgreens.
You can only take the pills for three days, and you must go to a doctor. The pills will make your pee turn orange. bUt that's normal. So, remember to go to the doctor, UTI's don't go away.
A UTI can be caused by wearing tight pants, not changing your pad/underwear/or tampon often enough, and not wiping correctly.
But I'm not sure you have this, so go to the doctor and find out.
Razhie answered Tuesday July 17 2007, 12:43 pm: It's possible you have an STD, but it's a bit more likely that you are either a bit sore from the friction (if the sex was recent) or that you have a Urinary Tract Infection.
UTI's are spontaneous, but more common in sexually active women. They do NOT go away on their own, but can cause serious problems if left untreated not to mention becomes hideously uncomfortable. A doctor can diagnose a UTI from a urine sample and will just give you a few days of antibiotics to take. No big deal, but you should see a doctor immediately if the pain doesn't go away in the next day. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]

aworkinprogress answered Tuesday July 17 2007, 12:25 pm: it could be an std. go to your local health department and you can get tested i think for free. it could be a bladder infection, but its probably not. even if the guys you had sex with claim they didnt have an std, they could be lying or didn't know if they did or not. i hope this helps you out.
