Three weeks ago I had unprotected sex. He pulled out and I took a morning after pill the next day because he didn't pull out at the very beginning. Two days later, my vagina swelled up, hurt when I urinated, was very red and irriated. This continued for about 5 days. For a week, I was OK except for some discomfort.

Two days ago, I checked and noticed I had a little red sore, doesn't hurt, is not a blister or a wart. Just a red sore right next to my cervix. And I also noticed that my cervix turned to a very white or very light colored pink color. Usually it is all the same color, a healthy pink color. But, it is actually a different color than the rest of my vagina. It looks so light colored! I am not having any discomfort. Neither from the sore of the discoloration.

I'm so scared. I go to the health clinic tomorrow for std screening but I just would like to be able to have some idea if this is normal or not. I can't find anything that says it is or isn't.

I am 26, I haven't had sex in almost a year from the previous time, and it was with the same person I was with this past time. In the past, I used to be very sexual active and have been with a number of guys, but I have never had any symptoms such as these.

I'm just really scared. Any body ever have this happen?

You certainly have an infection of some sort.

Go to your appointment and take the tests. Sorry this happened. Good Luck tomorrow !

I'm curious has to how you examined your vagina without a speculum. Are you sure it is your cervix you are talking about?

I guess the question I would ask is "How would you examine your cervix. Did you have a speculum ? I hope you don't have a prolapsed uterus at 26." And to J_9 you are smart !
In March I took care of my best friend who died of breast cancer. God Bless you and amanda... Bless you both
