Question Posted Thursday October 16 2008, 11:50 pm
Well, this may be a bit embarrassing, but here goes. I'm 17/f Lately I have had this weird feeling when I pee. It is similar to burning, but it's a bit sharper. It comes on right after I'm finished peeing and it feels like it goes all the way from my urethra up to behind my clitoris. Since this started, I have been feeling like I really need to pee more often than is normal, but when I go to the bathroom, not very much urine actually comes out.
I'm a virgin, so I know it's not an STD. I have been taking birth control pills though (for hormonal issues, not birth control.) for about the past month.
I know that you guys aren't doctors, but I was wondering if anyone has ever experienced this or has an idea of why it's happening and how I can treat it. Thank you so much.

Believe me go into the doctor now before it get worse cuz believe me it will feel like you are going to die if you don't get rid of it now!! [ Cassiopea's advice column | Ask Cassiopea A Question ]

If you don't know what a UTI is, use the search below:
If it is one, it's wise to go to the doctor, incase it spreads (to your kidneys for example) which will make you quite ill.
If it is a UTI, you'll be given antibiotics. Simple and easy to treat. :) [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
