I'm 17 and my boyfriend and I have been sexually active together now for over a year. (He has been my ONLY partner,how ever I'm his 3rd.) We do not use protection, but we're not stupid, he's never came inside of me and we make sure that he pulls out very early so I can finish him with either my hand or mouth.
However a few weeks ago (after just getting off my period a week before and this being the third day in a row of having sex), we were having intercourse outside and I noticed in the middle I had been bitten by a bug on part of my arm. It itched like CRAZY and blew up like a balloon. I noticed that later on that night, I was also unfortunate enough to have some of these bites on the right side of my genital area by the lips protecting the vaginal opening. Like the bites on my arm, they were EXTREMELY itchy and they swelled up considerably.
A few days later, I contracted my first yeast infection ever(due to the medication that I had to take for a sinus infection). Very gross stuff, I hope to never get one ever again. I itched so bad that sadly I ended up scratching myself considerably (I was not used to having long nails,for I've bitten then ever since I could fit my fingers in my mouth.) However, I never actually scratched myself, I would rub as to not irritate it as much with the infection. And I had a very yeasty discharge of the stereo typical cottage cheese looking discharge and it almost seemed very bubbly. Along with my vulva swelling up some and the (as stated before) ungodly itching.
After treating the yeast infection and keeping myself clean as best as I can, my pH balance began to become normal once more the bug bites on both my arms and near my vagina had gone away as did the swelling from the infection. (Thank goodness! I have a very bad anxiety to think the worse of everything.) Also, the scratches had healed and everything went back to normal.
Except now, I have noticed that I am still having a white-ish (what I can only think of to describe of as a milk-y looking) discharge. It's odorless and painless. It's not bothersome at all to me really. I just want to know if there are any types of bells or red warning signs that should say that I should go to a doctor to get checked out.
I currently have an app for my phone that helps me keep track of when I have intercourse and to mark when I get my period and such (since the app has STILL been able to accurately track when I'm supposed to get my period and I've had it since October of last year.) This app also shows the week of ovulation and the day that I am supposedly the most fertile. So we try to take every precaution we can as to not get pregnant.
Is there a possibility that I'm pregnant? I'm due for my period soon now for I'm noticing the sexual drive increase and the need to take afternoon naps, craving chocolate and sweets, the very drastic moodiness that I always get, and the abdominal pain that I get from cramping. (But I've also noticed that a lot of my PMS symptoms are identical to those of being pregnant.)
My mother does not know that I am sexually active and I'd prefer to keep it that way, but my health of my body is more important than that of my pride. Thank you for taking the time to read and respond!
