Some sort of infection maybe?


Question Posted Thursday April 17 2008, 7:12 pm

Hey, I had sex with my boyfriend friday night (I'm on the pill, we had a condom, it didn't break, he pulled out, ext.) And I know forsure I'm not pregnant. Well, my vagina really hurts, and it feels like, swollen maybe? And when I pee, it's weird smelling, and I'm having discharge stuff. This happened in November, and my friend said she thought it was a U.T.I. (urinary track infection) Well, this is pretty much the same as it was then, and, it went away on it's own last time, but, I was just wondering what it was for sure, and if there's anything I can do with out going to a doctor until I have to next month for more birth control. Thanks! sorry it was so long.

From how it sounds, it's most likely a UTI. I had that this year actually... and a lot of times it is caused from sex. The guy's penis can push bacteria up into the girls vagina during sex, and that bacteria can cause a UTI.

But you should definitely go to the doctors right away because it actually began to infect my kidneys. You'll be fine as long as you take antibiotics but it got VERY painful for me because I waited too long to go to the doctors, and when I was there my doctor actually lectured me because I waited so long...

But yeah next time you have sex, just make sure you pee right after. IT will actually get rid of some of the bacteria.

If it still burns, smells weird, or you get weird discharge... then it's most likely a UTI. Also, make note of if your back begins to feel like it's getting muscle pains. That's what happened to me when my kidneys began to get infected.

BUT GO TO THE DOCTORS RIGHT AWAY.

:)

good luck

You really need to see your doctor. If you
had the same thing in November I will guess
that it didn't get cleared up completely
with over the counter medicine. To be honest
OTC cures rarely cure anything unless you
catch it way early.

Since you are due to see the doctor next
month anyway, see if you can get the exam
for your pills early. Take care of both at
once. But see your doctor before it gets
more painful for you.

what you can do instead is call your doctor up and explain this. Then when you tell him/her about it, ask if s/he thinks that you should come in. This way you will know how serious this is or if its normal.
