    Just had period, then intercourse, next day having cramps and discharge, help?

    Alright, so I am unsure of what to do here, My last period ended on the 24th of February (that being a week ago) on Tuesday the 26th my partner and I had protected intercourse, since then, I have been having menstrual- like cramps, constant clear watery discharge, and just recently now, yellow discharge, I am feeling a dull throbbing pain around my vaginal opening and lower abdomen, other symptoms I am having are lack of appetite and indigestion as well as diarrhea, I was a tad worried at first that there may be a possible chance of pregnancy, however I feel that it's a little early on in my cycle to be feeling symptoms of pregnancy, my next period is due around march 24th?? I believe, I am a regular 28 days, so I am worried that this is an infection? If that is the case, I am wondering what steps I can take in order to fix this...I'd also like to mention that I am 18 and my partner and I both agree that we would prefer to do this independently without parental intervention
    Also if it's of any help, last month, before my period I was having dark brown discharge, which had my partner and I a tad concerned, I did take a pregnancy test and it was negative
    So I am wondering if these symptoms I am having mean that damage is being done during intercourse?
    If anyone knows anything about this it has had experience with this please let me know your thoughts, and suggestions as to what I can do, I would greatly appreciate it!

    Doubt there's any intercourse damage. If you don't want to see a doctor,
    go see a pharmacist with your symptoms and maybe they can give you an
    idea and suggest something to treat it if needed.

      Okay thank you so much, ill see if I can figure something out, I'm still a little skeptical as to whether or not these could be pregnancy symptoms, but I feel it's probably much to early in my cycle for symptoms like this to start showing, am I correct?

        I'm not a medical expert but I definitely believe it's much too early for
        pregnancy symptoms. Sometimes just the fear of it brings on symptoms.

            You need to see a Dr. ASAP
            You could have a STD or Infection. Which either could get very serious if untreated and possibly even life threatening.
            Brown and yellow discharge along with pain and fever.. Is nothing to play with.

            If you are truly over 18 you should have no worries about talking to your Mother or another Adult Family Female. You do not have to mention you are sexually active ( to the parent ) but you will have to to a Doctor.
            Being 18 means you are an Adult, you should have nothing to hide from your Parents .

            Even if you are not 18, you need to see a Dr. if you are on your Parents medical plan, you need to get the Policy # from one of your Parents .
            If no medical you need to go to a Clinic that has low income medical plans/ payments .

            See a DR.. Get checked out, get tested for Infections or STD's .. Do it as soon as possible .
            We cannot diagnose your problem, we are not Dr's, you need Medical attention, be Adult enough to seek the proper help from the proper Professional, even if it means involving your parents .
            Your health is more important than hiding your sexual activities, because it could become very serious and they would find out anyway .

            Good luck..

              Hi,
              So to anyone who had been having similar symptoms to me, or who was curious as to what mine were; I visited a doctor a couple weeks ago and they did some urine tests. As I suspected I did not test positive for any stds or infections, which makes sense because I never had any of the obvious symptoms that are associated with stds such as burning or itching. There was also no history of stds, and I have not had multiple partners nor was I unprotected, so STD's and STI's were ruled out. I have since been doing some research and recently saw the doctor again, both me and the doctor suspect that this could be an ovarian cyst. Ovarian cysts cause a lot of symptoms that you would normally have during pregnancy (such as missed period, bloating, nausea, Breast tenderness, constipation, it can even cause positive pregnancy tests even with a blood test when you aren't actually pregnant due to the rise in hcg hormone levels) along with abdominal cramping and sharp pains. I am almost 100% positive I have a cyst, mostly likely on my left ovary, the doctor told me to just relax and give it a couple weeks and see if my hormones balance out and my cycle goes back to normal, if not ill have to go for an ultrasound to find the cyst.
              Thank you to everyone for your advice, I might post a separate thread containing information on cysts if anyone is interested. I hope this was helpful to someone who might be just as confused as I was
              Cheers
