Okay what makes you say that?
Brief Answer:
Your Symptoms point to Urinary tract infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello
I read your query and I understand your concerns about pain while passing urine.
This pain while passing urine commonly happens in sexually active women of your age.
STD is generally accompanied by other symptoms like thick or white vaginal discharge. Moreover you have used condoms which reduces chance of STD.
But pain you are experiencing is typical of simple urinary tract infection.
Therefore I suggest you get urine culture and sensitivity test done to confirm infection and medicines it is responsive to.
Antibiotics can be taken after the report. Meanwhile have lots of water.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Regards
