A member asked:

Why do i have rib and uterus pain on and off for about 2 weeks now i do have unprotected sex with one partner what's wrong with me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not sure: Unclear why rib and uterine pain would be connected... Might not be. If you're worried about std then can always get a check. Ibuprofen for uterine pain. Rib pain is sometimes costochondritis. Again, NSAID is best. See doctor if persists.
