I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I'm 16, and a couple of days ago, I lost my virginity with my boyfriend. We used a condom, and it didn't break or slip, and he didn't cum in it, so I thought pregnancy wasn't a possibility. Still, I'm feeling stressed and anxious because since the day after, I've been having stomach pains. I haven't told my parents because of my age, and they don't know about the pains I'm having. Is it normal to experience stomach aches after having sex for the first time? I've been taking paracetamol because they seem to help with the pain. My period usually starts at the beginning of every month, and I only sometimes get cramps a week beforehand. Could these pains be related?

It is not uncommon to experience stomach pains after your first sexual experience, as it can be a new and sometimes uncomfortable sensation for your body. However, if the pain persists or becomes severe, it is important to seek medical advice. In the meantime, continue taking paracetamol for pain relief. Considering your concerns about pregnancy, since you used a condom correctly and it did not break, the chances of pregnancy are low. To further ease your worries, you can consider taking a pregnancy test for confirmation. For the stomach pains, you can also try taking antispasmodic medication like Buscopan to help with any cramping. If the pain continues or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.Last updated on 04 Jul 2025
