I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on what they think might have happened here..

I’ve had some problems with cervix / ovaries, which were discovered when I was pregnant. I don’t think any cysts were detected, but either way, I was recommended to come back for a check-up after I had my son. Well, I never did (I know, I know, bad idea), and my son is now 2.

For the past few months I have noticed my cervix feeling tender whenever I have sex. Positions that are normally enjoyable feel "too deep," like my cervix is being bumped, and I can only have shallow penetration, which is unusual. Then a few days ago, I was having sex and the same feeling occurred. We stopped for a moment because I said it hurt, but the pain did not subside, it just intensified. For a good 20 minutes I was curled in a ball sobbing, feeling abdominal pain that can only be compared to the pain I felt during labor contractions.

My boyfriend and friend ended up carrying me to my car to take me to the ER, but on the way I took some pain relievers and by the time we got there I the pain was calming. I don’t currently have health insurance, so I convinced them to just take me back home instead.

A friend of mine told me it sounded like I had a cyst burst. I have no idea what’s going on, but I’m definitely a little freaked out. I went today to get on a new health insurance plan so I can see a doctor, but until then — any ideas??
