I totally get that! I recently got an IUD and had unprotected sex one time. Even though I knew the chances of IUD failure are very low, I totally gave into the compulsion. Went out and bought a pregnancy test (AFTER I got my period, which by itself should have been proof enough that I'm not pregnant) but it's like I didn't trust my body. The two pregnancy tests were negative, of course. It's actually not uncommon for women with IUD to be paranoid about pregnancy, since the IUD can make your period stop. But if you're using both IUD and condoms, you're being very safe.

Same exact thing happened to me. We had unprotected sex about 2 times and that was a long time ago. But when we had sex with a comdom I got so paranoid because I started feelings things, so I went to get a test and it came out negative. I’m the one who/who is going to initiate whether to have sex without a condom, but it’s still scary even when I don’t have thoughts at the time!

@bubbless Yeah I regret not using a condom. It was my first time so I wasn't sure when exactly he was supposed to put the condom on, and he never did. I didn't get pregnant, but I got BV and I'm still dealing with yeast infections 2 months later. I later found out he's been seeing other women. I already got negative tests for STDs but I wanna go get tested again cause I feel like something is wrong. I feel like I'm being punished for having sex 😔

Oh love I am so sorry!! I just want to let you know that having sex should not result in feeling like you’re being punished. Yes it’s the thoughts, but don’t ever feel ashamed for doing something that is natural. I’m also sorry about that jerk. You deserve so much better. But eventually his karma will come. I also had to deal with having my bf get tested. It turned into me having to negotiate with him which made my ROCD skyrocket. But eventually, after three long conversations + one with his dad, he realized how dumb he was being. He has yet to be tested cause of covid but I’m just glad he’s in the process now.

Thanks for the encouraging message! Yeah it was a semi-casual long distance thing, it got messy. I'm never doing long distance or casual again, I can't handle that lol. Gonna book a gynecologist appointment for my IUD followup and see what the doctor says. Hope everything turns out ok for you and your bf!! Relationships are hard enough without OCD

@sugarfiend07 You’re absolutely right. They are hard regardless I know that now. But I’m just glad that we continued our friendship throughout our relationship because it can’t just be about sex and being with someone you know? And that’s great!!! I’m glad your getting a follow up, I hope things go well. You’ll find a great person to share your life with, and they’ll be lucky to have you. :)

A few days ago, I posted how proud I am of myself, that I managed to go to the doctor to get a vaccination. Now, two days later, I find myself panicking and ruminating. It was a practice where they also test a lot for HIV and other blood diseases and in my mind, the needle/syringe they used for my vaccination was somehow contaminated with blood from another patient. Maybe by accident but sometimes my mind would make up a scenario where they would do it even on purpose. I was so proud of myself, that I managed to go there on Monday and now I am making up scenarios how I caught HIV by going there - I am feeling guilty because I was „careless“. Any tips for the moment? ❤️

so about a week ago around june 12 or 13 coming back from the beach i was having vulva pain on one of the lips then eventually i went to grandmas house and everytime i bent down or moved around i was having some sharp pain “down there” eventually i was scared and then it started to kinda hurt to pee… and i was like ok this is kinda worrying me eventually i forgot about it for two days it didn’t hurt but then i come back and start to have it again. so then i was like okay i’m just gonna schedule a doctors appointment. i schedule my doctors appointment got tested and i was negative for UTI but i was having bad lower back psi so they sent off a cultural test and told me a few days after that i have bacterial vaginosis so i was like ok i’m guessing to get antibiotics for it… i get the antibiotics yesterday theyre capsules i can’t swallow them but i cut them and put it in apple sauce where it was so gross the smell was awful and the taste was awful… atp i got a liquid i haven’t took it yet.. but my stomach has been hurting and had numbness and weird tingling feeling down there… where it’s scaring me and now my stomach hurts almost like cramps but it makes me so nervous… i keep thinking i have ovarian cancer or some type of cancer or a cyst or kidney stones… even tho they told me i have bacterial vaginosis somehow i can’t believe them… but i soon start my period on the 30th and my OCD gets so bad 2 weeks before my period and symptoms start a week before my period… idk i’ve never had this OCD go out for so long but like my urine looks fine it’s just when i pee now it’s almost feels weird idk my stomach is hurting rn when i lay down and i’ve been freaking out ugh. and this morning i had sorenness down there… i also had some inner thigh pain… i can’t stop googling i keep thinking it’s something worse than i have from what the doctor told me

So basically, I’ve been with my husband six years already I’m 24 and he’s 25th. We don’t have that much money at the moment but I’m trying to work as hard as I can to save so when I become a mom I can be able to stay at home. But last week our condom broke during my ovulation period and I’m afraid I may be pregnant. My husband say that he loves me but he doesn’t want babies at this moment and he want me to drink something to take “care” of it. I don’t want to but he said we don’t have money and he’s not able to give us the life he wants for us. I’m having suicidal thoughts and my anxiety it’s just driving me crazy. I don’t know what can I do to calm down and stop thinking about it cuz it’s driving me crazy .
