I really can't add much to what the other two adviser's have said other than to reinforce what they said.


Remember when you have sex with someone you are not only sleeping with him but everyone else he has slept with. A condom will protect you from some STDs but not all. In today's world it is important to know your sex partner and to know their sexual history. You should also know what to look for before having sex with them. If you are unsure about them it is not unreasonable to ask that they have an STD test before you have sex with them.

As for your problem to day; you need to see a doctor. If you are over 14 you can see the doctor in total confidentially. Meaning you can ask your mother to wait in the waiting room while the doctor examines you. By law, known as HIPPA, you are afforded this right once you reach the age of 14. The doctor cannot discuss with your mother anything that he finds during the examination or what he may treat you for without your expressed written permission.


HIPPA is a federal law. This provision was expressly written so young women and men could seek medical help for sexual and reproductive medical help without worry of parental interference. So go see your doctor or a Women's clinic.

Go to the doctor as soon as possible, it could be a number of things. A simple allergic reaction to the latex condom or lubrication, to a more serious and complicated std. So your best bet is to get checked out by a doctor. Just like pregnancy, it also takes only one time to contract an std.

Good luck.
