okay another v****a question. My bf fingered me and I bled again.. just a drop of blood BUT it was sorta like a little hardcore? but Im freaking out because I asked my friend who is a bit sexually knowledgeable and she told me that I could have an infection! where I bleed when being fingered! AND i wouldnt be able to detect it at first. Please tell me she's wrong because I do not want to go to a doctor about this. :[ Its not like everytime i get fingered i bleed its only sometimes and it goes away. I just had my period 2 weeks ago and i had slight cramps (at the places where my period cramps were at) the day he fingered me. Is this in my head? and if this could be an infection what should I do and how should I approach my parents about this?

So you bled from being fingered? Maybe he scratched you accidently with a nail and you didn't feel it? If you had an infection, I'd be more inclined to think you'd have a strong vaginal odor or discharged tinged green or something (although it's possible you had no symptoms as your friend said). BUT the only way to know for sure would be to see a doctor.
If you're being sexually active, you need to be mature and responsible about it, and that includes seeing a doctor. If you're not able to see a doctor without your parents finding out (if that's what you want), then you shouldn't be messing around sexually.
If you can't see your family doctor without your parents finding out, try looking into a Planned Parenthood clinic. I don't know the details (Lorien would probably know), but my guess is they'd have a doctor you could see for free and without your parents finding out.

well i suppose you're right.. :[
but im just wondering though how soon are the symptoms for an infection down there? and how severe do you think mine is ? AND what are symptoms for an infection..
just to stay on the lookout.. but i know for sure that a fever and back pain may be one of the symptoms..

It would really depend on the infection. It's hard to say really because we can't diagnose through a computer screen even if you are listing theoretical symptoms of what you could have.
Until you go see a doctor and get it looked at, anything on our part is pure speculation. You could have a yeast infection or, for all anyone knows, it could be something more serious. I really think the most likely explanation is that he scratched you without knowing it, but if you're worried then go see a doctor. A doctor could tell you if anything was wrong, plain and simple.
I -could- list symptoms of potential infections, but I a) don't know what they are, and b) wouldn't anyways because I don't want to freak you out more than your friend already did. To do so would be irresponsible on my part. I'm not trying to be mean, just encouraging you to go see a medical professional who can give you a definite answer, whereas we can only speculate and that's not reliable, nor is it a substitute for medical attention.

Niko is right.
He probably scratched you with his fingernail. It's nothing to panic about. It happens a lot, and it usually heals just fine on its own.
But having a scratch does leave you vulnerable to infection. And you may or may not notice symptoms. So seeing a doctor wouldn't hurt. The doctor could look for signs of infection that you might not notice, such as redness or swelling.
Planned Parenthood and Family Planning are clinics that will see you even without your parents. You can visit www.plannedparenthood.org to look for a clinic near you.
I know it's not fun to go to the doctor, but it's something we all have to do from time to time. You're going to have to get a vaginal exam in order to get hormonal birth control and to have your paps done before long anyway. So you might as well start getting used to it now. 3nodding
