Hi guys, I’m 18 & I’ve never been on BC, (I’m still not on it rn either.) However, I am sexually active & I also experience pain during sex (sometimes, not always) & I also experience pain even when I’m NOT on my period, just regular days throughout the month I’ll have pain in my lower stomach on my left & right side.. I understand completely you guys aren’t my doctors or anything so you can’t tell me what’s wrong with me or what to do but

1. I’ve never been to a Gyno or had down there checked.. so I’m nervous to make an appointment!

2. I’m worried something is actually wrong with me, and then I’ll get depression after finding out what’s wrong..

3. I’m worried I might not be able to have children if something is really wrong with me.

So, my question to YOUU guys is.. do you/ have you ever gone through this? Pain in, I’m pretty sure my ovaries? Have you guys got it checked out and what did it end up being? Is there anything I can take or do to make it stop or like less painful? And what are some tips or advice for making an appointment, what should I say, do, what will happen when I go etc.. thanks guys, for listening & whatever you guys end up commenting, I appreciate it a lot, I’m really nervous & shy so making an appointment will be a big step for me.. and for those who will mention me not being on BC is dumb, my doctor never recommended it even though I did say I’m sexually active (for over 2 years now) and I’m a bit nervous it might mess up my cycle (which is REGULAR every month) but if they do recommend it to help with this pain, I’ll definitely take it. Thanks everyone 💕💕💕 if anyone has anymore questions or things I’ll answer the comments or I’ll edit this!
