I'm 17 years old and I lost my virginity in August 2010. I have had 8 sex partners since then and have unprotected sex with some different people. The people have had near 20 other sex partners so I'm scared I have something. I have a boyfriend now and I'm won't let him go down on me because I'm so self conscience of it. We tried to have sex but it was painful I don't know if that's cause I'm to tight or its from an infection. My symptoms are constant yellow discharge, itching, and a unpleasant odor even after a few hours after I shower. Please let me know what this could be ! :((

Hi blueeyesx3,

It sounds as though you likely have some type of infection. It can be due to a number of possible causes, so you really do need to have it checked by your doctor. Do you have a gyn? If not, it is time to start seeing one. Some infections can be easily treated, and have no lasting effect, others can cause you problems with fertility and your health.

It really is not worth the risk to have unprotected sex. Hopefully, once you are able to get things sorted, you will also speak to your doctor about choices in birth control. A condom for your boyfriend, EVERY TIME that you have sex, is a must... then include an additional for of contraception for you to use as well. YOU have to protect yourself as no one else is likely to do it.

Please see your doctor as soon as you can.

Its sounds a lot like chalmydia to me, best to get it checked out as soon as possible. This is the most common sti and is easily spread.

OK thanks guys. I do not have a gyno but I made an appointment at planned parenthood for this upcoming Thursday so hopefully I found out then. I really hope its not clymedia !

If you are this sexually active you need a gyno, and should be on speed dial and having regular check ups.

It might be chalmydia.. that's the same thing that happened to me about a yr ago and went and got checked out... you seriously need to get it checked out because waiting too long can cause some problems.. don't stress yourself out about it though because if it is chalmydia its real easy to get rid off.. good luck and I hope everything is fine

Hey guys so I had my appointment today and so far they told me I had a urinary tract infection.. I'm still waiting for the others tests back.
