Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm a bit concerned because yesterday I did some dry humping while wearing my panties and shorts, and this morning I noticed some black accumulation that might be blood. Should I be worried about this? I'm not a virgin, so I'm a bit confused about what's going on. Can you help me understand what this could be?

Its possible that the black accumulation you noticed is old blood, which can happen due to friction or minor irritation. Since you're not a virgin, it could also be related to your menstrual cycle. If the symptoms persist or you experience discomfort, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.
