Hi
Yes it is possible to be related to the recent sexual episode. I would suggest you opt for a blood test namely the serum beta hcg 2 weeks after your sexual relations. This will clarify the presence or absence of pregnancy. Please share the report when ready.
The reason I'm asking you to rule out pregnancy is that such lower abdominal pains can be caused due to it and we need to know if they are.
Another thing can be urine infection. However that doesn't cause such discharge. Nevertheless if you do have any urinary difficulties I strongly suggest you opt for a urine routine microscopy culture sensitivity test and share that report as well. Once I have the reports I can guide further
Next Steps
serum beta hcg
urine routine microscopy culture sensitivity
Health Tips
later on we may need an ultrasound. as of now not required.
