Is something wrong or am i overreacting ?
Hi... I'm a 15year old female and in my country you are not allowed to see a doctor alone until you are 18 years old. I Think i may have a health problem but i am not sure...My mum and family think i could be just overreacting because in the past i went in the hospital for really minor issues that took place because inwas actually growing up..Anyway i know you guys here are not doctors but i just want to know if you guys here may have had symptoms like mine and what the outcome was. Ps.I realized that everytime someone talk to me about some disease i find myself observing my body and freaking out about things that i find abnormal or
that i have not notice before.. So the problems i have now began after some people came in my school to talk about STDS...I have never had sexually intercourse..Anyway my SYMPTOMS are as follows:
1.i recently began going "off" in the toilet every two days before it was every 3-4 days.
2. Stomach aches
3. On the left side between my legs hurt.(groin area)
4. Breakout on face that are small but in huge piles.

Maybe give some free advice about: What does it mean??
If you have never had any kind of sexual contact, then it is not an STD. It must be through some kind of contact, skin touching skin, sharing of fluids, like saliva and vaginal fluids and fluids from the male.
You can not catch it the same way you catch cold or flu germs, not through the air or by touching door knobs or other surfaces. So don't worry, its not an STD.
More likely since you are still going through puberty, it's related to those kinds of changes in your body and it's common for young girls to get cramping and pain with their periods. Some can get the cramping pain just on one side at the time when you are fertile and an egg is being released from an ovary. I experienced that later in life, cramping on one side, but as a teen I had the full cramps all over the abdominal region, so bad I'd be rolling around in bed in a fetal position. I know that Drs. now can treat severa heavy bleeding (bleeding that won't stop and no padding will hold) or severe cramping. Some cramping is usual and then everyone has a different pain tolerance. If the pain gets to where a pain reliever won't help, and it be comes disruptive of your routine, unable to go to school, some girls have been unable to even walk if it was so severe, then you need to see a doctor.
The breakout you have on your face also comes with puberty for quite a few kids. While most get occasional minor acne, thats what it is called, there can be a small percentage of teens who get severe cases will large sores, not just a few tiny bumps. I had 3 daughters and 2 of them got the acne, both on the forehead. It looked so bad that they requested I photoshop any photos of them on the computer that I planned to use, to erase the telltale acne sores. Drs have something they prescribe these days for the acne if its really bad, a cream to put on it. Doesnt work for eveyone but its worth a try. In case you're intereested, now that both daughters are in their 20's, they no longer have any acne.
So if you have any concern and want to see the Dr. talk to your parents again. Insist on seeing a Dr. and let them know how bad it is for you. If they think the skin problem isnt worth a trip to Dr. they should at least for heavy cramping and once at the Dr, ask them what they can do for your skin too.
