Brief Answer:
STD unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to HCM. Thanks for writing to us with your health query.I understand your concerns regarding the issue. Chances of STD are less as there is no itching, no foul smelling discharge or rash . Chances of pregnancy depend on your last sexual encounter. Can you tell me when was your last period date, and when when you had sexual intecourse ? . But it is too early to tell about the pregnancy as ovulation occurs approximately 14 days from last period. So the chances of pregnancy are very less. Sometimes pink discharge can be due to remnants of blood left because of last period which mixed with normal vaginal discharge appears pink. I hope I have helped you.In case you have any other query please feel free to write. Regards Dr Manisha Jain
