    your symptoms sound like a UTI but go to the doctor to check it out. It doesn't sound like anything more serious than UTI but you still need to get it treated asap

    good luck!

    I'm almost 15 and i dont need judgement. However, i would appreciate advice. I recently lost my virginity 6 days ago, and lately (since yesterday) i've noticed i have had to urinate frequently. While i urinate there is no burning sensation, that comes after i finish, it stings for approximately a minute.
    I am confused and paranoid as to whether this is an STD, or a simple bladder infection (which i have gotten twice before)
    My symptoms consist of slight burning after urination, and frequent visits to the restroom, occasionally (mainly throughout the mornings) i get nauseas, and some abdominal pain. I urinate about every 1-2 hours, and while it isnt the normal somewhat long length of my urination, it isnt too short either.
    All advice is appreciated, thank you all for your time.
    (by the way, i need advice as to if i do have a sexually transmitted disease such as Gonorrhea or Chlamydia on how to go about treatments, since i would preffer my parents not to know i am sexually active, [and yes i have learned my lesson.])

    Assuming you are a girl, the urinary tract problem could be something called cystitis. It is an irritation of the urethra sometimes caused by having sex. The nausea and abdominal pain could just be from worry. If it keeps up go see a doctor. It is probably just a urinary tract problem.

    Having said that, I just read that one in every 20 sexually active teenagers has a sexually transmitted disease. If you must engage in sex at your age (which I would strongly discourage) PLEASE, PLEASE ALWAYS use a condom!!!!!!!

    Heyy. I'm 15 as well and also lost my virginity about 2 weeks ago or so. I had almost the EXACT same thing as you (burning sensation during and after urination, peeing a lot, feeling like I need to pee but barley anything comes out, etc).

    So I went to the doctor and he told me I had a UTI (urinary tract infection). These are pretty common when you first become sexually active, because of all the new bacteria and all. Trust me, I know, haha.
    They're easily treated with a course of 3 day antibiotics.

    You need to go to the doctors to get antibiotics tho. A UTI cannot be treated without antibiotics. If you leave it untreated it can spread to your kidneys and that can cause some complications.

    From the symptoms you have described i would suggest that you have a UTI. (urinary tract infection)
    your soo young i really wish you weren't having sex but since you are im pretty sure you wont stop but please!!!! WEAR A CONDOM EVERY TIME YOU ENGAGE IN SEXUAL INTERCOURSE NO MATTER WHAT THE DUDE TELLS YOU.
    go to the doctor as soon as possible so the problem doesn't get out of control and casu further complications ! thanks
