Hurting After Sex

I've been with my boyfriend for a year and he is the only guy i've slept with. We have sex often and it doesn't hurt. Well at least it didn't. For the first few times, everything was fine. Every once in a while a little blood would come out, but not enough to worry me. So idk what that means, I always took it as he just sort of hurt me cuz Im new at this. But over time I've begun having abdominal pain, or what feels like my ovaries. It is a searing pain where I can't even get up for a little while. It never happened until recently. So I don't know if it has to do with sex or what. All I know is it has become something me and my boyfriend worry about. I also get a shooting pain on my right side. It hurts so bad and hits so randomly that I could just be walking one second and the next im on the floor crying from the pain. When this happens I can't move without it hurting and it even makes breathing deep breaths painful. Im worried this is something serious, considering my mother had ovarian cancer. Please, tell me what this is!

I recently picked up an std from my unfaithful partner.. and the first noticeable symptoms were a light bleeding after sex, and discomfort during sex.. it just felt like my vagina was not the same.. though it is not likely you have contracted any sort of std.. it is a mild possibility.. You should definitely go to the doctor.. it is awful to live with pain.

I would see your doctor. You could have a cyst on your ovary.  Also are you wet when you're having sex? If you're dry that can make you sore. If you aren't wet enough try some lubricant.
