WHEN i PEE IT BURNS. WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF i DONT GO TO THE DR?!
Question: Ok well my man swears he hasnt cheated on me, but just yesterday it kind of started to sting a little bit when I go pee. and now there is kind of an increase in discharge, im confused because I am just getting off my period at the same time these other things are happening.If it is an STD and I dont go to the DR for whatever lame reason I come up with, what is the worst that could happen if left untreated. And like is there any way that if it is an STD it would just go away on its own, (like how when ur sick with a cold, and eventually after a week it will go away) could this do the same? (and I kno I prolly sound like the biggest idiot in the world, bcuz duh if something is bothering u and u have the means to go to a DR to get a cure, then y wouldnt u! LOL) but on the real this is embarrassing. and please miss me with all the comments about needing 2 leave my man, and needing to do this and needing to do that, beleave me Im well aware of all that.

Don't jump to conclusions - this could just be a UTI (urinary tract infection). Actually, UTI's are fairly common when women are on their periods.
Make sure that you're keeping yourself WELL hydrated with lots of water and cranberry juice. Yogurt can help too. But get yourself to a physician for diagnosis, because simple UTI's can turn into full blown bladder infections which can continue on to damage your kidneys if left untreated for a long enough period of time.
There are over-the-counter meds that can help with the relief of symptoms, but it's very unwise to take them and think the problem will go away. AZO Standard will help with the burning/itching (it will turn your urine bright orange). AZO also makes a UTI test strip (like a pregnancy test, but for UTI's) but that won't get you an official diagnosis or prescription meds.
See your doctor and take it easy on your man until you get the results! :-)
Good health~
infection and worse pain!
Ok it could be STD, but it also sounds like an infection. Go to your doctor.
Get tested right a way. We tend to lie.
Okay that happened to me about 5 years ago. So you could have a developing illness. Because it might be UTI. It's very bad, go to the doctor.
Sometimes having sex will cause you to get a bladder infection. Increase your water intake, drink cranberry juice. If you don't feel better in a couple of days, then go to your doctor.
You need to go get tested. Chances are you just have a UTI. In the mean time drink LOTS of cranberry juice! LOTS AND LOTS!
go to the doctor asap! it may not be an STD so no jumping to conclusions about cheating boyfriends and whatnot. go to the doctors!!! a little embarrassment is totally better than an STD that will be there for the rest of your life
GO TO THE DAMNED DOCTOR!
STD's don't go away on their own. There is not a single STD that just goes away, they either have a cure (but you have to get treatment!) or there is no cure. With the incurable ones, even after you get better you still have the illness in your system. There are excellent treatments for STDs now to improve the lives of people who have them, but for those who don't get treatment, STD's cause a host of long term problems such as brain damage (like syphillis) and cancer and DEATH (like HPV). Many others can render you unable to have babies later on. If you think I'm exaggerating about that, just google it. You should find hours and hours of fun reading on how STD's kill and maim people.
And what about years down the road, when you've broken up with this guy... and you give some totally innocent man whatever it is you've got, because you were too embarrassed to see a doctor????
All that being said, you probably just have a simple bladder infection. Even so, bladder infections almost never go away without antibiotics, so not seeking treatment will mean serious illness, and if you really play it stubborn, a stay in the hospital. If you think you hurt now, sister, wait until this thing goes on a few more days! Cranberry juice and lots and lots of fluids will help, but they can't kill bacteria, and a bladder infection is a bacterial infection. (By the way, when people say you may have a UTI, that stands for Urinary Tract Infection.)
Why on EARTH would you not get treatment when you can? Millions of people suffer from illnesses and injuries all over this world, in places where there are no doctors, and you live in the developed world and WON'T go to the doctor??? That's just crazy!
That could be a number of things such as a uti, vaginal infection or an std like herpes, chlamydia...etc. You should really see your doctor. By waiting the problem will only worsen or it may subside ans cause PID, Sterility, kidney infection....etc.
Rather than risking your health and waiting for what might happen, I highly recommend going to the doctor as it could be an STD or an infection and will be essential in quickly diagnosing/relieving the problem.
Also as rare is it may seem he could have a yeast infection and has transmitted it to you.
Go get checked for TRICK but it could just Vaginitus ... TRICK is treated with two pills called Flaggyl (both partners have to take it) and Vaginitus is treated with a cream used vaginally for I believe one week ...
GO GET IT TREATED!!! STDs and UTIs do not go away on their own, they just get worse! The DR doesn't care why or how you got it, just to figure how to cure it... You don't want to become interfertile or worse cuz you let an infection go wild...
If your man hasn't cheated on you then I would say you have a uti. A urinary tract infection. If you don't go to the doctor, it will definitely get worse. I suggest going to the doctor. If you suspect your man cheating I would definitely go to the doctor and get tested for an std. Std's do not go away for anything unless treated with the proper medication. Some std's can affect your fertility in the future. That is definitely something to think about. The longer you wait the worse it gets. tick tock. Good luck!
STDs will not leave on their own and could leave you infertile, scarred, or have chronic pain. As with any infection there is also risk of death due to sepsis which is where the infection/bacteria enter the blood stream and grow. This can lead to extreme fever, low blood pressure and eventually death.
Go to the doctor and have yourself checked immediately!
Go to the local ER they can treat you there or gop to dept of public health and explain you have a possible STD.
Seek treatment!
Firstly, why would you come up with an excuse not to go to the Dr? Burning urination is usually a bladder infection. You need antibiotics for that. Some other things could be STD's. There are many different kinds of STD's, and they all need to be treated differently.
If you are suspicious, I would start protecting yourself. I am not going to lecture you. BUT you need to take care of yourself and protect yourself. For whatever reason you have suspicions, take care of yourself. Perhaps by starting with that small step, you can take the next steps for your own well being.
