Vaginal Cuts? PCOS related?

I am 16 and sexually active. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 14 but I am now 16 and having sex. I have realized that I am now having to stop during sex because I am bleeding. When I go the restroom to look it looks as if the bottom layer of my vagina has a straight cut going down.. I first began to think that this was normal as it happens everytime I have sex causing me to have to wait weeks to have sex again.. I’ve been texted for STDs and everytime I go to the doctors they tell me they don’t see anything and won’t be able to tell anything until I come to them before the cuts heal... advice? Very nervous and have yet to tell my mom i’m experiencing the cuts..

If you have a fresh cut, go see the doctor. I don't see any reason to discuss it with your mom, just tell her you want to see the doctor because of something more innocuous (like you want to rule out a yeast infection or a uti). A doctor can't do much if you present with a healed cut, but he will probably be able to tell you where the cuts are coming from if you show up with one. Are you having unprotected sex? and if so, does your partner have genital warts or something else rough about his skin, or does he do something rough with his fingernails every time? (And if you are having unprotected sex, is it because of thinking PCOS will provide protection against pregnancy? If so, please think again and use protection until you can get an IUD or on the Pill.)
