Ask the Doctor

Stomach aches and lack of xxx

I have been having occasional abdominal pains since I was 16 years of age. Now at 18, the abdominal pains have got worse. My friends say that the pains were caused by my lack of sexual activity and that if I start having sex, the pains will disappear. Is this true? I don’t want to have sex at my age. Please help.

It is not true. There is no correlation between abdominal pain and sex, therefore, ignore your friends and see a doctor to properly examine you so as to know the actual cause of your abdominal pains.
