Condom slippage?
During intercourse with my boyfriend, the condom slipped off (without ejaculation).
At that moment, we didn't realize it might have fallen inside the vagina, and we continued with a new one.
The next day, I noticed white discharge with blood streaks and some mild pain in my lower abdomen.
Could this be a sign of inflammation? Is there a possibility of pregnancy?

More Info
When a condom slips off during intercourse, it can understandably lead to concerns about potential infections or pregnancy. In your case, since the condom slipped off but there was no ejaculation, the risk of pregnancy is significantly reduced, although not entirely eliminated. Sperm can sometimes be present in pre-ejaculate fluid, but the likelihood of conception without ejaculation is low.
Regarding the symptoms you are experiencing—white discharge with blood streaks and mild abdominal pain—these could indicate a few different things. First, the presence of white discharge can be normal, especially if it is not accompanied by a foul odor or significant discomfort. However, if the discharge is unusual for you, it could suggest an infection, particularly if it is accompanied by other symptoms such as itching, burning, or a strong odor.
The blood streaks in the discharge could be a sign of several conditions. It might be related to ovulation, especially if you are near the middle of your menstrual cycle. Some women experience spotting during ovulation, which can be mistaken for other issues. However, if the bleeding is more than just spotting or if it continues, it could indicate a more serious issue, such as a vaginal infection or irritation, especially if the condom slipping off caused any trauma to the vaginal walls.
Mild abdominal pain can also be a common symptom related to various factors, including menstrual cramps, ovulation, or even anxiety related to the incident. However, if the pain worsens or is accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, severe discomfort, or persistent bleeding, it would be wise to seek medical attention promptly.
In terms of infection, if you are experiencing symptoms such as unusual discharge, pain, or discomfort, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider. They can perform a thorough examination and may conduct tests to rule out sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or other vaginal infections. It’s important to remember that some STIs can be asymptomatic, so if there is any concern about potential exposure, testing is a prudent step.
In summary, while the risk of pregnancy is low in your situation, the symptoms you are experiencing warrant attention. It is best to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide a proper evaluation and guidance based on your specific circumstances. They may recommend tests for STIs, a pelvic exam, or other diagnostic procedures to ensure your health and peace of mind. Additionally, if you are sexually active, consider discussing contraceptive options with your partner to prevent similar situations in the future.
