bowel discomfort during sex

I am an 18 year old female and recently lost my virginity. My problem is that while having sex, i feel a very uncomfortable pressure in what feels like my bowels, like i'm going to have to go to the bathroom.  I often feel this during digital penetration as well. It is very disruptive to sex and i often worry that i am going to lose bowel control. The second time i had sex, i noticed what seemed like a small stain in my underwear which seemed like some kind of anal leakage.  I have no history of gatsro problems, except for acid reflux. I am very petite, and my boyfriend is not,  if that means anything.
What could this be? It is causing me to be very anxious and is also preventing me from really enjoying sex. Any advice would be helpful. thanks!

It definitely sounds like you have a backed up colon. Make sure your bowels move at least once a day, preferably more. Drink LOTS of pure water to flush out your system. Once your bowel movements are working efficiently, you may see a difference in your acid reflux.

Hi Julie2,I've had that same problem before too.It does get annoying.The only advice I know to give is what I done for myself.I all ways made sure I had a bowel movement before sexual intercourse,all so try relaxing your self.If you feel up tight or uncomfortable it will happen.All so since you are all new to this part of your relationship,you might feel a liittle insecure,don't it's all a part of life and the reproductive system on a woman and a man.You will become more comfortable with your partner,try more fore play to help you relax all so to help get you more in the mood all so.I hope this crash in SEX ED has HELPED,but I'm sure you've heard it all before.Good Luck.TNT406.
