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.

How can I get twins?

A woman has a higher chance of having twins if she conceives with the assistance of fertility treatment or is aged 35 years or over.A woman has a slightly higher chance of having twins if she has a family history of twins. A family history of twins on the motherâs side increases this likelihood more than a family history on the fatherâs side. However, this only applies if conception takes place without the use of fertility treatments.
