Question
I lost my virginity on Saturday (today is Wednesday) and I have been bleeding on and off.
Saturday: barely
Sunday: none
Monday: a lot
Tuesday: none
Wednesday: Lightly
I also have had diarrhea for the last two days. I do not know if that is from something I ate or if it's directly related. I am 20 years old, but come from a strict family, seeing a doctor would mean I would have to go through my parents' insurance.
Please help.

Answer
At 20, you can ask the doctor to please be careful what is billed for as your parents will see the statement from the insurance. Please do go talk to your doc!
