Have you ever had a pap or std check?

Please PLEASE use condoms. Perhaps you don't know what you're putting yourself at risk for. You have your whole life ahead of you. Your health is in your hands. Protect it. I can't stress that enough. Even if you don't have any stds now, hpv is extremely common and even while practicing safe sex using condoms I have a strain of hpv which has put me at risk for cervical cancer with the possibility of never having children. You don't want to deal with this. It's no fun. You have control over your sexual health. Take the measures to take care of yourself :)

this is not related to hpv... the infection/ swelling you got may have occured due to vaginal dryness at the time of intercourse, which should get back to normal within days... you should see a doctor if your condition persists...

Without condoms, you are always at a high risk of acquiring sexually transmitted disease/ infection... you should not opt to go for unprotected high risk encounters... better safe than sorry...
