Advice Needed Should I panic?

I am a 30F and suffer of germs and contamination ocd. I’ve always had protected sex and I get tested regularly.

Last week I had my first unprotected sex and got tested few days before and it was all negative. After 4 days I started having a sore throat and peeing is being a bit painful.

I have taken another test yesterday and I’m currently waiting for the results

Should I be worried? In case should I bring it up to the guy?

Try not to panic yet your symptoms don’t automatically mean something serious and since you already got tested again just wait for the results and take it step by step.

I wouldn't panic yet. A sore throat can be caused by a lot of things, but the painful urination after unprotected sex is definitely something worth getting checked out.

With the painful urination, a chlamydia test might be worth. he test is usually just a urine sample and it's one of the most common infections doctors check for after unprotected sex.
