I recently had my first pelvic exam they told me I have Cervicitis And Bv. Does this mean that my boyfriend has NGU? If so is it possible that my Cervicitis was caused by NGU. I recently was tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea and trich and syphilis and HIV all came back negative. Do I need to get tested for other std s that I’m not aware of?
Had protected se** with an extremely high risk woman. As far as I remember it was quick and the protection didn’t break. I had several tests done: rna pcr at 11 days, combo elisa’s at 26, 47, and 60 days as well as a standard antibody at 60 days which was offered for free with the last combo elisa. I was ready to move on until I started feeling symptoms at the 9 week mark. For the past two weeks I’ve had higher than normal body temperature but nothing serious; like maximum 37.8 from the mouth. What’s odd is that the the increase in body temperature is not all day for the past two weeks- it seems to come and go at intervals during the day. Also, I have lost 5 KG in the last few weeks. ( It could be the past two months). I also have an abnormal toe nail fungus on both toes and a lymphnode in my neck that doesn’t hurt but feels strange. How accurate are my results and is my stress and anxiety overblown to the point where it’s causing me all these symptoms? Do I need to retest at 3 months? I was told combo tests are conclusive at 6 weeks post exposure. I’m also extremely confused with the whole window period thing. Is it possible for someone infected with hi*** to start producing antibodies and consequently symptoms at such a late stage? Or Do government agencies just state three months to be careful for medical legal reasons? I’m extremely worried and do not know what the next step should be.

My Name is (…) I live in Ethiopia i have a medical problem with may wife
my wife always complains of back pain sore throat and frequency of urine but no more urine when she goes to the toilet. Then we visited health institution in last night he diagnosed PID + uteres infection.
I confused when the lab test has written Anti body positive so what means anti body positive please give good knowledge is may wife hiv positive or not???
I am a 43 year old male and I feel so stupid. I got drunk in Las Vegas with some friends at a bachelor party, and ended up having sex with a “massage parlor” worker later in the night, a girl from Thailand. She gave me oral sex and then we had vaginal sex. I didn’t touch her vagina with my fingers. Earlier in the evening, i had trimmed myself in my pubic area and had a slight abrasion, no bleeding. I used a condom with her, and she even checked to see if it was intact, it was. She then wiped me down toward the tip of my penis with a Kleenex. I then went to the bathroom and urinated. About 6 hours later, my penis slightly felt discomfort after I peed again.
Now i am scared that i caught something, this all happened 4 days ago. The next day after the sex, I took a pill of Viread (tenofovir) and took it for four days. Viread is for chronic hepatitis and also used sometimes for HIV. I read that some people used it for post or pre exposure prophylaxis to HIV (as a part of Truvada). I was given some Viread pills from a close friend who actually had extras because he does have chronic hepatitis. What are my chances of having caught a disease or HIV? Do I need to worry about this because I am very worried. What should i do doctor? Do I need to be on meds or do I need to get tested? Thank you!

I recently had a case of Syphilis and was treated with 3 dozes of 2.4 million units of Benzathine Penicillin – I was diagnosed on August 9th and – and received 3 weekly shots on August 9th/ 16th and 22nd – my last shot was on August 22nd – I took a blood test on August 16th and as expected my ALT – AST – GGT and ALP levels were elevated significantly – I was given various medications for improving Liver Function by my general doctor and then 3 weeks later took another blood test – this time my ALT was .097 from 2.52 – my AST was now 0.56 from 1.09 3 weeks earlier and my GGT fell from 5.03 (3 weeks before) to 1.77 (still elevated but much better – and my ALP feel from 4.06 to 1.86 … So obviously the medicine was working and improving – however the reason I am writing is that on 8/16 my AMYLAZA level was 1.28 and when taken 9/7 (3 weeks later) had risen to 2.48 – and as well my LIPAZA level had risen from 0.39 on 8/16 to 2.10 on September 7th … I am concerned about the rise in those 2 enzymes and wanted think that this rise could be caused by the large amounts of Penicillin and have possible caused Pancreatitis ??? Or is this normal ??? That the Pancreas could be effected by Syphilis ??? Should I be concerned ? Are the numbers very elevated ??? I would appreciate any information you may provide …

I met a sex worker more than a month ago, and came down with a fever/headache a week later. The headaches were really bad and lasted for around 10 days, and the doctor said this was some kind of viral fever. I did not see any blisters or sores on my genitals during this time. A week after it subsided, I got a few red spots on my glans. I went to the doctor and they said it’s just thrush and I was given an anti-fungal cream. The spots reduced the next day and it responded well to the treatment. They also tested me for STDs (everything except herpes) and it was all negative.
It’s been a month since my last sexual encounter. But I’m worried this whole thing was due to herpes. Should I go back and get a herpes blood test?

5 months ago, I had a one night stand with someone who’s sexual health I’m unsure of and can’t ask, but who clarified that he was clean and tested. The condom broke, which we only realized after the fact.
At the time, I took a morning after pill immediately after, and kept an eye out for symptoms. Although I didn’t get anything that warranted concern for STDs, I experienced symptoms that I thought were due to the pill: headaches, sweating, nausea, abdominal pain, and a delayed period (I took the pill a couple days before my period was due to start, it was delayed by about a week). These symptoms lasted 2-3 days. Since then, everything has gone back to normal and I haven’t experienced anything odd since.
However i have read that some of those symptoms could have been due to contracting HIV, and that’s begun to worry me. I don’t feel different and haven’t gotten sick since then. Is there a chance?
Could I have HIV? Should I worry about this?

I had unprotected sex with a girl over the weekend who told me the following morning she may have chlamydia. I went on Monday and got tested and treated. If I was infected, would that cure it before symptoms showed? I received treatment about 36 hours after exposure

Hi there, I’m a 20 year old male, 1.74m tall, 66KG weight.Approximately two months ago I had unprotected sex, a day or two after I noticed sores on my lips and swollen lymph nodes on either side of my neck and under my jaw, they are not visible but tender and can be felt with my hand. I may also have swollen Lymph nodes in my groin but I’m not sure as they are smaller than a pea. Approximately two weeks ago I’ve been coughing a lot of mucus however this has happened before. The coughing has been getting better. I have no other symptoms but really panicking i may have HIV as the nodes appeared after sex and two months later, they are still swollen. I am aware you can’t diagnose me but I would be really grateful if you could tell me the likelihood my symptoms are HIV or could other factors play into this. I am waiting for the 3 month mark to get tested. Thank you very much.

Okay. So I am a female and I had sex August 1st and August 3rd. I used a condom both times. On August 5th I felt like I was getting the flu. It really on lasted 2-3 days and wasn’t bad enough where I couldn’t work or anything like that. Then a week later, August 11 I went a water park. The same night I went out with friends and I wore this body suit thing that was pretty tight against my vagina and felt pretty irritating. The morning after I woke up and something felt off. There wasn’t any weird discharge or smells that I noticed. It was mildly itchy and just felt irritated in general. I tried monostare one day and took over the counter UTI pills for a couple days. Nothing changed. I also got my period a couple days later. Now, it still feels like same. Mildly irritated and a tiny bit itchy. Also, I found one small bump this morning on the inner lip of my vagina. Kind of near my cliterous area. It looks like an in grown hair (I shaved last night) but is there a chance I could have heperes (herpes) or another STD? It doesn’t hurt and it’s only one and it’s underneath the skin. Age: 27.

Hi. A question about hiv antibody/antigen testing. I have had untreated CLL for 8 years. Would a HIV test result still be accurate with this condition? Thank you. Age 65 Male

I am a 39yr old immunocompromised female. I have been living with herpes for 17yrs. I had been having recurrent episodes of herpes and a doctor prescribed 400mg of acyclovir per day for 6 months for suppression. Over the years, before taking the medication, I have noticed that I normally get the recurrent outbreaks between a few days before my menstrual period to a few days after. If I were to take the 400mg per day of acyclovir during only this period in which I normally get outbreaks to cut down on the cost of buying the acyclovir, would this still be an effective treatment method, and more importantly, would this intermittent taking of acyclovir increase the chances of or cause the HPV to become resistant to the acyclovir?

I was just told by my doctor that I might have herpes. I talked to my mother about it today to find out she and my father both had the virus before I was born. Is it possible I was born with the virus and didn’t show any signs when I was born because she didn’t have any signs of an outbreak.
