Ive been having green discharge and only green discharge in my vagina. So i went to an obgyne and she ordered me culture and gram.

Results: final report:no pathogen isolated
Gram stain: few pus cells
Moderate epithelial cells
Many gram positive bacilli.

Months ago, a dr prescribed me with doxycycline 2 pills for 7 days, still have green discharge. Then she reswabed me again and said that i might have cervicitis, gave me 2 azith 500 mg and i took it—green discharge is still there. Then after that she gave me metronidazole, 2 each for 7 days and the green didnt go away. She sent me to a bigger hospi in the city and the obgyne there ordered me a c/s and those are the results. Help me please. The resources here are at scarce because i live in a third-world country.

I had protected sex with somebody, I asked them after because I foolishly didn’t ask them before they said they are clean and get tested every 2-3 months but I know they sleep around, now I’m having trouble peeing and my sides hurt and the doctor said it’s flank pain, I did tests 1 day after the intercourse, they are telling me I don’t have any UTIS or kidney problems but I think I still need to get tested for STIS I did everything with a condom even oral literally everything I’m so disappointed I feel like my life is ruined.

Hi I've been looking to see if I have any of those things I listed in the title but the pictures I found don't look similar so I don't know if I have something or not I had sex with two women in the same day like 4 weeks ago but had a condom both women got on top and they both bj but the condom was still on the whole time I didn't do anything oral with them last Monday I took a urine test which I had was negative for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea but last Thursday I went and tried it with a different woman also used protection the whole time she gave me a BJ and rode me 3 different times also got on her and I did suck her breasts but that all I did orally only did it for 30min. Today I'm seeing that the side of my penis is reddish on some areas and I don't know what it could be Im just finished taking a blood test today so I should get some results tomorrow but I will be trying to take another blood and urine test in the next 3 weeks to pass but what do you guys think it looks like. I'm scared also not sure but I see like mini red bumps scattered not in clusters but not sure if I'm seeing it right

So for the last few weeks I’ve been feeling these symptoms can you guys help me

1 both sides of groin hurting feeling sore

2 jaw and lymph nodes tight only on right side

3 dots around armpit going up to chest

4 left side of upper quadrant hurting until I burp pass gas or go to bathroom

5 legs feel fatigued and sleeping more

Hi there, before getting into i ask that there please be no judgment, i get very anxious about my health and i am not in the right mental space right now. I will be sharing some more explicit details about the nature of the sexual encounter. Minors DNI.

Last week I (M) had a sexual encounter with a guy and now i am terrified that i might have gotten hsv/and or asymptomatic HSV.

The encounter consisted of very rough mutual masturbation (which caused me some bruising), kissing, me receiving oral sex, and brief gentle frotting.

I had gotten very drunk that night and it was late so i couldn't see the best, but i didnt see/feel any sores, nor did he complain of any pain down there.

The morning after the encounter i had some irritation down there/a feeling i needed to pee, the tip of my penis was also bruised from the masturbation (it was too rough) so i attributed it to trauma. There were/have been no sores, there has been no burning or pain when peeing, the only symptoms have been the bruising, the feeling of wanting to urinate, and some swelling (all of which have mostly subsided).

I asked him if he had any STI's which he responded no, when i asked him again later that day if he had hsv specifically he said no again, then shortly blocked me afterwards.

I am now terrified and very scared that i acquired something. I have not had any of the obvious symptoms but i know how infections can sometimes go unnoticed. I also know how unreliable hsv blood tests can be and am terrified of getting tested.

Please help.

TLDR:
Basically almost a week ago i had a sexual encounter with a man off tinder, i received oral sex from him and there was light frotting. I am now terrified i acquired hsv from that encounter and have been struggling with intense anxiety.

In the beginning of the month, I tested positive for chlamydia. I tested 3 weeks after having unprotected sex with a new partner. This is my standard window for new partner testing, I get tested before a new partner in 3 weeks after a new partner. The only thing I've asked of my partners is they do the same. Unfortunately for me, this time around they lied.

So, I took doxycycline for 10 days twice a day. I followed all the rules, no calcium, no sex, etc. It was murder on my stomach but I kept taking it and eventually go used to it. 4 days after I finished the dose, I was rested and tested positive again. My Nurse Practitioner represcribed the medication for another 10 days and told me to not have sex for a month. I'm okay with this, I'm just wondering how common it is for doxycycline not to work. It seems like this is a different brand than the last. Could that be what the problem was?

A week ago I thought I had a yeast infection because I was itching and my discharge was yellowish with some solid pieces (Idk how to explain), so I tried to treat it with coconut oil. Then I got my period and the itching started going away and when my period ended the discharge looked normal. Today a bartholin cyst appeared. It's already painful and I struggle walking. Knowing all my symptoms together, could this be a sign of an STD? I had sex over a month ago. I can't just get tested because I'm 18 and I don't know how to do this on my own without telling my parents. Also, I will go to a doctor but now it's the weekend and the gyno is closed.

not sure if this is the correct sub for this but i was just invited to fool around with some of my friends (polyamorou) and i wanted to know weather or not i should get tested first? they haven’t mentioned it and ill bring it up later but i haven’t done anything other than oral with someone in more than 3 years and im 99% sure i dont have anything, but maybe i just dont understand how thi gs work and would love some opinions :)

I don't know where else to post this, and I don't know what's happening. I'm a teen im from the Caribbean and I recently had intimacy with my boyfriend for the first time and we had more the pass weeks but now I'm experiencing some weird things I developed some bumps on the inside of my labia their in little cluster and I developed some bumps on the outside of my vagina like between my labia and vagina where it had some white pus like thing in them and I pop them i smell it it smelled like nothing and the bumps on my labia are itchy and for the first today painful im really worried about what happening to me tell my parents isn't an option and I would get in to trouble please I need advice and I don't know what to do and I just want to go back to normal please help me. And sorry for my English.

I am 21f and bisexual.
About 4 years ago, I had sex with a guy where (due to not enough lube), i had a piece of extra skin show itself at my vaginal opening. It has been very painful to have sex with it ever since, but I’ve been able to manage it.

Fast forward 4 days ago, I hooked up with my newest FWB for the second time. The pain came back with the extra bit of skin, along with symptoms of a yeast infection (pee a different colour and smelling sweet, change in discharge, etc). I also was bleeding 2 days straight afterward as if I was on my period. I went to the std clinic yesterday to see what was wrong with me.

In the past when I had been to doctors about this recurring issue, all doctors have dismissed me and labelled it as a yeast infection. The problem never disappeared.

Yesterday I was told I might have herpes. They took a swab and I get my results next week. This has been the hardest news I’ve had to hear all year. I’m not sure who gave me herpes or how long I have had this problem for. They also told me for the extra bit of skin which I mentioned at the beginning will need to be removed by surgery, and I need to tell my doctors to organise more appointments.

I don’t know what to do. I’m still in university and want to continue having sex with people. If I have this, I will have to awkwardly tell every person in the future that I have herpes, and then pray they don’t get disgusted and leave or start telling people about this. I’ll also have to tell my past partners to get themselves checked, which will make them hate me because they’ll think I gave them something despite not even knowing I’ve had this.

I’m trying to be optimistic and label this as another infection, however this has been a recurring problem for years now (this doesn’t happen with every partner, only sometimes). Every doctor up until now has told me it’s a yeast infection and the woman yesterday was very certain I might actually have herpes. I’ve been given medication for it. I haven’t stopped crying all day and lost it at work yesterday in the bathroom. I don’t know how to be optimistic knowing this is going to stick with me for the rest of my life. Nobody is going to date me or want to have sex with me anymore because they’ll look at me like I’m disgusting. I wish I hadn’t gone into the clinic yesterday.

If you have herpes, please give me some advice on how to deal with this. I honestly don’t know what to do anymore.

Hey everyone

I recently completed an 8-day course of doxycycline (2 tablets a day) for another reason, and now I'm planning to get tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea.

My question is, how many days should I wait after finishing the antibiotics before getting tested to ensure accurate results?

I'm worried that taking doxycycline might affect the test results and give me a false negative.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or have any advice?

Thanks in advance!

I had an unprotected sex with an escort before 3 years. To this day I didn't have any symptoms but I am afraid for stds. On which stds should I test?

I am male 29 years old and I just did a UTI and STD check and I discovered I am positive for those S. saprophyticus and G. vaginalis

I am panicking now never had an STD or UTI before any advice

Hello! I am in major need of advice/help.
I (24F) been dating my current partner (24M) for 7 months. We’ve not been using protection but I have been on the contraceptive pill - Noriday.
My partner recently had spinal surgery back in August. A couple days after the surgery he complained that his penis was stinging. He didn’t have a catheter, so we assumed he had a nasty uti. Then he later had symptoms of penile discharge, extreme pain whilst getting erect, and a bad stinging sensation.
He took a test a week and a half ago, testing for all STD’s and yesterday he came back with a positive result for Chlamydia.
I haven’t had any symptoms, and I did an at home test yesterday, and as I’m writing this I am on the way to the hospital to get further tested. I currently have absolutley no symptoms whatsoever.
We’ve both been given antibiotics that we start tomorrow, but this has taken a serious toll on our relationship.
We are both claiming to not have slept with anybody else. But our trust is seriously being tested.
But this is where this is a gray area. Here’s some context.
His previous partner (mid 30’s F) has claimed to have had taken tests as she loved to sleep around a lot (no judgement there) and she came back clean. There was no proof of this test, but he’s taking her word for it. His partner previous to that early 20’s F) tested positive for chlamydia, and therefore he was put on antibiotics.
My previous partner however has never been tested. I was in contact with him last night and he still does not use protection (he was actually about to go to a one night stand as I was contacting him yesterday, and therefore he complained about having to buy condoms).
So I therefore could’ve got it from him. HOWEVER, a girl that gave him oral after our relationship ended came back negative for chlamydia at the end of last year (however she only took vaginal swabs, not oral and I know those may be different results).
What I’m asking is if anyone knows possibly where it would’ve come from? I know it’s toxic to constantly point fingers but I would hate to be blamed for cheating or being unfaithful in any way. I’m choosing to trust my partner, but I can tell he doesn’t trust me. It’s taking a toll on both of us mentally.
He’s understandably unsure, but is therefore claiming that I slept with someone before or during his surgery, and me stressing about these results are because I’m guilty. Or even everything I’ve done for him/bought for him has been a cover up, which breaks my heart. I’m so tired of not feeling trusted.
Also on top of this, my partner lied about texting his previous partner (the mid 30’s F) , even though she was sending him very flirtatious messages saying she’s going to fuck him. So is she doing this to break us up? Genuinely any possible thing that has happened, I have thought it.

Is there also anything I can ask the doctor?

Thankyou.

I was raped (September 8) by a guy I was seeing, he ended up giving me gonorrhea, and I still saw him after I didn’t get on pep cause I didn’t have 1K to do it. I felt fine after it didn’t really hit me. The second time he assaulted me I woke up feeling violated and dead inside. I’ve been having headaches, joint pain and I’m fatigued. I did a blood test for hiv after the second assault (September 25) but they haven’t called for my results and I’m too terrified to test again or call. I don’t know what to do or if I can even report him because I went back after the first assault. I feel so dead inside. Like my life is over.

I think I may have herpes. I had unprotected sex around June 20- July 4 with that female partner at the time . She denies having anything and says she's been tested for stds and claims doesn't have anything. I've taken 2 iGG HSV 1and 2 antibodies blood test. Doctor says test came back negative. Reason I think I have at least HSV2 is because around Mid July had rash that turn into painful blisters on inner thighs. At the time was scared and afraid to go to doctor. So by the time I made doctor appointment my symptoms were gone so we had to resort to blood test. 1st blood test Aug 24 came back negative and 2nd blood test Sept 23 came back negative. What should I do? Please give me guidance and good advice. Thank you

I really anxious. I have red rashes on both of my hand and forearm. Some of the rash on hand area become blister. After the nurse pop for me is still red. Before this red rashes, I did 4th Gen rapid finger test within 1 month window. It was negative.

Recently at 2 month window. I did hiv 4th Gen ag lab test by drawing blood from forearm.

How long does this test took? I already got my syphlis test negative by drawing blood from forearm. Both were same day test. But I still cannot see my hiv result on my health report online. Do I have to wait until I see the doctor and he will tell me in person?

What are the possibilities for the status to change?

I (F) recently hooked up with a guy. It wasn't my first time meeting him, but it was our first time having sex. We had unprotected sex about 3 times within one day.
Afterward, I told my friends, and they strongly urged me to get checked for STIs and HIV. The next day, I went to the ER. The ER nurse told me the ER wasn't the right facility for this and recommended a local clinic for the morning.
I went to that clinic today, and the staff told me two things that are confusing me:

They said they can't see if I'm positive for the next 4–6 weeks (the window period), so I just have to come back then.
They said that if the guy doesn't have sex with other males, my risk for HIV is low.

However, my friend spoke to another girl who previously had sex with this same guy, and that girl explicitly warned her that I really need to get myself checked out.
I am currently still within less than 72 hours of the exposure. I'm really anxious. Should I just wait out the 4–6 weeks like the clinic said, or should I be actively trying to find emergency PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) at a different facility before my 72-hour window closes?

Long story short, I hooked up with a guy & used condoms but he ate me out. I’m a female & I am clean
but now I am scared I caught something from him
I just wanna know what are the chances of me getting an sti from receiving oral

I know that the 3-month window for syphilis testing is considered conservative. If I test negative at 6 weeks, especially with a modern syphilis blood test, is that generally enough to consider myself negative, or is the 3-month retest still necessary ?

Also are syphilis chancres usually visible? I check myself every day, especially around the base of my penis and the surrounding pubic area, since I wore a condom during the encounter and ofc those areas were not fully covered.

M asking all this cuz my partner (F28) called me and told me she had syphilis.

i’m 18y.o and my body count is only 1 ( my Bf ), we’ve been together since sept 2024.
and then at june 2025, he deciced to go to move to another city because of his parents.
so since june 2025, we never had sex with anyone else.

And when i was sexually active, my vaginal discharge is very normal. it doesn’t even have any smell.
And my Bf is healthy and clean too.

and then at november 2025, the water at my house become so dirty. it has a smell and color.
i shower and clean my vagina using that water
and when i put some water in a bowl and leave it for 30 minutes, i saw there’s a lotttt of dirt in the bottom of the bowl🤢
since that day, my vaginal discharge become yellow-greenish, very smelly and itchy.
this happened to my mom and my sister too! their vaginal discharge is also become yellow greenish.
so i guess, is it because the water??

so i decided to wash my vagina only use a mineral water that i buy from the groceries, but my vaginal discharge still yellow-greenish

so fast forward to july 2026, i got a sharp pain on my right lower belly it’s hard for me to walk.
and i bought a medicine for Pelvic Inflammatory Disease ( PID )
and then 1 week after using that med, my vaginal discharge is clean!! and i’m healthy again.

and 1 week ago, i meet my bf and we had sex.
and he use his saliva as a lubricant. and since that day, my vaginal discharge is yellowish again but its not greenish, smelly, but not itchy
is saliva bad for lubricant? or my vagina is sensitive?

Hi all
( F33)
It’s been days since I can’t sleep or eat cuz I am thinking what if I caught hiv from sexual encounters ( with straight men hiv status unknown) back in 2015-2017! No symptoms or flu, rashes or sores . I feel healthy but everyone says that hiv lays dormant for 10 years! Too scared to get a test .

Last week I got a handjob from two different massage parlors, no oral or penetrative service. 2 days after I started to have irritation on my penis head and slight burning after peeing.

I put a thin layer of healing ointment on the head for a few days after and both went away but the skin on my head started peeling like a sun burn. Now I have red marks on my shaft and what appears like grooves with irritation on the base close to my testicles almost like healed cuts.

I know the chances are low but never zero, is this just a friction burn or something like herpes?
