Infection? Posted: 07-04-05 01:59am
Within the the last three weeks I have
been experiencing strange symptoms. I am
a virgin but did receive oral sex before
my symptoms began (this was my first
sexual experience with a partner). Still,
I highly doubt it's an std; my partner has
also not had any prior sexual experience
with a partner or any sort, and I had a
slight itching sensation prior to the oral
sex. I'm fourteen and I assume my mother
would think I have an std so I haven't
talked to her. About three weeks ago I
devoloped bumps on my upper labia majora.
They felt somewhat like pimples.My first
thought was that it might be herpes but I
read that warts caused by herpes are
painful and oozing. Mine were not
painful. I tried to pop them and they
reacted like pimples. There was a little
puss but there was more of a clear oily
liquid. Soon after the mysterious pimples
I devoloped something a little more
frightening. I had alot of discomfort
with my urethra. I felt a slight amount
of pressure there constantly. When I
would urinate it wouldn't hurt, but when I
was near to finishing it would tense up,
so when I would finish it would hurt.
After a few days, I started noticing a
strong odour when I would urinate. Since
then, the pimples have completely
disappeared and I haven't experienced any
pain with my urethra but the odour,
however, does remain. I'm very concerned
for my vaginal heath and if I do have an
infection or any kind of ailment, I fear
it could effect my ablity to bear
children. However, I do suspect that
these are seperate incidents.

Uti Posted: 07-04-05 09:59am
You describe a uti, urinary tract
infection, bacteria gets pushed up inside
of the urethra by force, oral or regular
sex...They can grow up further and cause a
bladder infection so you should get it
treated...
Btw, you play with fire you're going to
get burnt, you did have sex, so don't kid
yourself, even if you didn't do the dirty
with genitals...
Why don't you chalk this up to your early
stupidity, realize you're only going to be
a kid once in this life (because you are
still a kid frankly), and just revert to
some innocence, after you're a kid, you're
never going to be a kid ever, ever again.
There will be plenty of time for a real
relationship with a real man with some
real meaning down the road.
You will definitely end up with an std or
pregnant or at least with a series of
broken hearts if you don't quit this which
may even be worse, and you're chewing away
at your innocense, your pristine sense of
self, that you are a great whole person
who doesn't give in to a boy's lines, who
at this age is simply hormone driven and
basically a dog-animal sexually, have some
self-respect girl! Go masturbate, but
stop this, it's meaningless and dangerous.
You know it's wrong, that's why you're
ashamed to tell your mother...She loves
you and knows what is best for you, she's
not trying to steer you wrong and prevent
your expressions or anything. It's just
that sex, even oral sex is part of a more
important picture, and that is your self
respect, your happiness, how you will see
yourself as a woman down the road.
Go to the water slide park. Buy some
cute fingernail polish. Put streaks in
your hair. Learn spanish. But for
god's sake stop reinventing the wheel!
Unless you are just stupid, or amoral, but
mostly stupid...Know what the boys call
girls like you? Cunts, sluts,
prostitute, 'hos, bimbos, trash, while to
your face they say "sweetie, lover, cutie,
babe"...Get real, please, before you're on
here with hepatitis, aids, a pregnancy
before you finish algebra...

I knew very well what I was doing. I’m
not some wild teen who's constantly having
sex with different people. I haven't even
had vaginal sex (so yes technically I am a
virgin). You may have been able to be
child at this age but i’ve had to grow
up a lot quicker than most kids. I know
the risks of stds and pregnancy. I've
educated myself about everything that I
need to know. I’m not stupid. In fact,
my boyfriend and I have decided not to
have sex because I know i’m too young.
So please don‘t have the audacity to
assume you know anything about me and my
situation, and by the way, I do
masturbate! (a lot). I understand that
you might have taken this tone because of
your own experiences, but keep in mind
next time that you do not know every side
of the dice, and all I wanted was a
non-judgmental suggestion as to what I
might have. Nevertheless, I will be
looking up on urinary tract infections and
I thank you for your time.

Sorry -- Please Take My Advie Posted: 07-04-05 10:31am
Hello karengotshot.
What is that name all about anyway-- I am
not that old I am in my early 20's but as
you I have also grown up very quicky, my
family life was not good and my mother
left her children with me at 17 which is
only 3 yrs older than you so for someone
in society to veiw a 14 yr old in this
time as not a young adult is ignorant and
naive in these days and times every
fourteen yr old is having sex. Although
I waited until I was 18 I did stuff just
as you starting at I think 15 yrs old.
How old is your bf? Anyways I dont know
your life story but it seems that you are
alot older than your age which leads me to
beleive you probably shave in the area and
if you do those bumps were purely in grown
hairs although the other symptoms do sound
like a uti the smell does not correlate
with a uti. Being as mature as you I
would attempt to go to a free clinic or a
planned parenthood. Or I guess suck it up
and tell you mom that it hurts when you
pee you dont have to tell her the other
symptoms just so she gets you to a doctor
these things will probably not go away on
their own.
As to the above respondent...
I hope if you have kids you dont think
that they are not doing exactly or worse
than this girl is... I do agree tho
please cherish your childhood you will not
get another one but at this point it seems
to me your childhood has already gone far
away and I am sorry for that. If at all
it can be saved please do so and enjoy
life.
I hope this helped.
Pls write back

Hi Posted: 07-04-05 18:13pm
As a medical prof. Std warts are caused
by human papilloma virus hpv and are not
painful, there are other forms of hpv (16)
that cause cervical cancer that have
absolutely no outward symptoms and can
likely be transmitted orally (better get
pap smears), herpes is painful and is
caused by herpes simplex virus (both oral
and genital), urinary tract infections are
caused mostly by escherichia coli or
certain anaerobic bacteria but are mostly
treatable with antibiotics but you
shouldn't wait because it can progress to
a bladder or renal infection if left
untreated...
Here you are at 14 educating yourself on
the world of sexually transmitted
microorganisms, how wonderful you should
do great in biology when you get to this
unit!
Here are a few more you may need to know
about soon: acquired immune deficiency
syndrome or human immunodeficiency virus,
hepatitis b and hepatitis c, chlamydia,
gonorrhea, syphilis, mononucleosis, there
was a letter on a forum from a teenager
who had hepatitis c and herpes and she
wanted to kill herself, but alas, you are
smarter than she is
good luck

I think the bumps were just pimples and
not related to my urinary pains. My
urethra hasn't hurt in a week. The only
thing that remains is the strong odor of
my urine. My vaginal fluids have no
odor. I maturbate with an object on an
almost daily basis. That might be a
factor (more so than the oral sex which
only happened once).

You should still get checked out for a
bladder infection, just pee in a cup and
they can see, and if you're embarrassed
about your mom knowing go to planned
parenthood they have a sliding scale fee I
think.
I just don't get it though, why blow your
childhood innocence on these worries? Go
ahead and get all the sex toys you want, I
understand hormones and libido, look i'm
an adult and if I could get back my
childhood and the fun simple easy times I
would but I can't and to hear you blowing
that innocence on std worries at your age
it just breaks my heart. Don't you want
to face your future husband someday and
state that you respected your body and had
great restraint with it sexually? Don't
you want to be able to tell your children
not to endanger themselves as you are now
because you didn't either?
Learn to sing in the choir, play an
instrument, do volunteer work at a
homeless shelter, bake brownies for old
people...There's so many other options to
feel good about other than this risky
stuff. Count your blessings and tell
your boyfriend you understand he's frisky
but to find another girl who is willing
and if that's the basis of his "love"
foryou then to find another girl because
you're worth more than what's between your
legs.

Actually i’m the aggressive one in the
relationship. He never tries to force
any kind of sexual activity on me. If
any cuddling, necking, or kissing is
taking place i’m the one who initiated
it,which sometimes can get frustrating
but I know he’d never try to pull
anything on me. This isn’t a situation
where some sex-crazed teenage boy is
forcing his innocent girl friend into
doing sexual act, so please refrain from
demonizing my boyfriend.
