What Does Fever And Headaches After Intercourse Suggest?
Hello, I have a question that it seems like I cannot find a reasonable answer to it. I m afraid to know the consequences of my action, but I want to know what s going on with me. Yesterday my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex for the second time. The first time I lost my virginity to him I was fine, but this time I ran a fever of 101.5 just hours later. Is that normal or running a fever and my whole body act with a huge headache. Now I just feel so thirsty and hungry could I be pregnant? Its only been three weeks since I lost it to him. Can you help me figure this out?

Hi,
In case the sex was during fertile time (10th to 16th day after period)Pregnancy is possible with first act. This can be conformed by home pregnancy test after 8 days delay in periods. Fever with head ache could be a coincidence as if it was to be after sex, the male partner should be already infected by urine infection, throat infection or virally infection.
In case both the partners were healthy ,the fever can not be due to sexual act. Please take Tab. Paracetamol over the counter 2or three times a day and consult your physician for prescription of needful antibiotic.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
