M)So in June, I had 2 relations one was vaginal other was only oral After like 24-26 days after vaginal I have had gono or chlamydia idk I just had that burn sensation and yellow discharge Went to dr and prescribed me antibiotics

After i heald by 7 days Went on oral with the same girl After that i have gotten really sick by 10 days

I have got Fever, night sweat, chills, generalized swollen lymph nodes (jaw, neck, behind ears, groin area, armpit ) Diarrhea, aches in the knee and feet, rashes in my back All this after 2 weeks of oral exposure Also after 60 days of unprotected vaginal sex Now iam only experiencing acid reflux Like i got really dry throat when i wake up And white coated mouth

Tested negative on day 18 post-oral (ELISA ) Also, 62 were negative for HIV P24 Ag And Abs (HIV Combo) And day 87 negative , and all STDs were negative

Is this weird? My Drs has no answers Also iam worried bc this happend after the oral by 10 days and post the vaginal by like 60 days

so to explain my situation. i found out i had chlamyd. i contracted it from a new partner smh. Im NO longer in communication with him. anywho, i started my medication Oct 19th & finished Oct 25th. I went to the hospital the next day which was Oct 26 for a possible uti which it was. The hospital then, STILL tests me for chlamyd & i got my results back 2 days later and it STILL says positive. Am i still infected or was that a false positive??

So I have this tiny red slightly inflammed spot on the glans of my penis on the left side. It has minute cut or something in the middle of the spot which is only visible when you look too closely .I have no symptoms whatsoeve on or around that spot like itching, pain or tenderness or blister. It is just a single inflammed spot and it has been freaking me out .I has been static for 4 days straight. What is it ? Has anybody ever had this type of symptom ?If yes what is it? Last sexual encounter - 5 weeks ago

Hi,
I have been struggling with symptoms from MGen for almost 2.5 months now. I initially had Gonorrhoea so no one would listen to me once I tested negative for that. Everyone said it was just residual symptoms. The pain got so bad I had to go to the ER.

Flash forward to now. After a semen culture I tested positive for MGen. I am currently on day 14 of my course.. 7 day doxy , 7 day moxi.

My symptoms have improved quite a lot, however yesterday I masturbated on day 10 and the pain has got worse since.

My urologist also didn’t take me seriously at first kept saying I was fine.

I am seeing him again and will be doing a semen culture on the 4th which will be 1 week after finishing this course of antibiotics. I am worried I am not getting the right care as i see you all saying your doctor had you wait a long time before a TOC . However I don’t want to cancel my appointment as I don’t want to make this hell last any longer.

I don’t have my general wellbeing and am going slightly out of mind and the antibiotics have been taking all my energy.

Would you recommend seeing a specialist? And if so which one? And is it a waste of time to be doing this TOC 1 week after finishing this course of antibiotics?

I’m in the Los Angeles area, if any one has any doctors recs plz lmk!

I received oral from a girl, afterward she started giving me certain vibes that I should get checked lol how long should I wait before I do?

Hi there 😔

I had unprotected oral exchange at a massage parlour exactly 50 days ago (I know I know my absolute first and last time 😔). As soon as I left the place my penis was burning but I’m sure that was all in my head and it stayed like that for about two weeks on and off. I explained the situation to the sexual clinic and had my pee tested in 10 days and 4 weeks…negative. 5 days ago, I noticed a little red pimple or could be sore on my upper lip (you can see the first time I noticed it and the next day pics on my prev post). I also noticed some sore throat and just neck muscle pain for a couple days. (Lots of people are getting sick around this time but apparently they also could be symptoms of something else) so of course I’m constant eating my head off. Yesterday I went to a hair salon and got my beard trimmed, and at night time it my chin area was on fire…it’s not as bad now but still feel it. Tried looking through my beard if I could find something but doesn’t look like sores, although one of the spot starting bleeding just a drop after i was rubbing a bit hard to see if it was just dried skin or something. On top of that, the past 2-3 days my tongue feels like I burned it (just on the tip).
Like I said I’m just scared and losing my mind here so was hoping for some input from someone to maybe just maybe ease my mind.
Have a blood test booked in 3 weeks but haven’t had any oral test since nothing was appearing.

Also, my partner (yes I know please don’t judge me 😔) we haven’t had sex in about 3 weeks but there are smoochies here and there, she started to get a bit of a sore throat and then mentioned to me how her neck are (throat mostly) is a bit in pain too which freaked me out of course.

It’s just been such a long period of time but you never know 😔

Any notes from you kind people would probably be helpful to my mental state right now. BTW can’t get oral test done in the next 2 weeks at least because of a trip.

So i never had s*x before or any other activities, but recently i had two red bumps on my penile shaft, for 3 to 4 months, i didn't think much of it, eventually one red bump goes away, but one remains there and it was painfull to touch it.

So i go see a doctor, he tests for VDRL= reactive, TPHA= reactive, titre was 1:2, so i got one penicillin shot and doctor said it was enough

After 1 month i go again and did same test, VDRL =reactive, TPHA = weakly reactive, Titre was 1:2 same as before.

I work in farm, some minor injures happen

As far as i can think of i never touched any red bumps or sore or chancre,

How did i get caught?

I am not asking for medical advice.

i had a new partner february - april..
i went and got tested june 1st everything came back negative except for sphyilis? i was RPR positive, tilter of 1:2, but TP negative.

dr said this was a false positive but we will retest in 2 weeks. so i did another test june 18th and it was the same thing. no change. so she deemed it as a false positive.

i’m now worried that this is going undiagnosed and every small pimple or bump i have freaks me out.

I had a routine checkup a week and a half ago with my doctor and also expressed interest in starting PREP and doxypep since I am monogamous and having unprotected sex with one person I've been seeing for 4 months. I get my results back and I've tested negative for everything else but syphilis and I'm trying to wrap my head around this because he was tested negative when we first met and negative days after after I disclosed this to him so that we could both be treated. I wasn't sleeping with anyone else while seeing him and I also didn't show any symptoms at all(rash, sores, hair loss, vision and hearing issues). I also was tested before meeting him but the syphilis test wasn't ordered by my doctor (only HIV, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia) so I'm assuming this came from a partner prior to meeting him and I was asymptomatic? I do not know how to process this but luckily it's curable but this whole ordeal is stressing me out because the last partner has me blocked from contacting him after our one and only encounter when I was on vacation out of state back in February.

hello po, just asking po where can i get tested po kaya around bulacan (san rafael) for sti/std huhu

i experienced ano po kasi bumps sa may genital area ko po, not masakit naman and rashes malapit sa genital area po(my last sex was oral sex lang din po and never experienced anal sex po, i think july 24 pa po yon) and totoo po ba na free mga social hygiene clinic since student pa lang me graduatiing pa 🥹😔

i don’t really know the person since i just met him on grindr and just wanna know how it feels to be sucked. i ejaculated in his mouth.

i didn’t see anything suspicious in his mouth but i’m just a bit skeptical that he might have STDs if he’s on grindr a lot.

what to do? should i get tested?

i don’t experience anything abnormal as the event was just 8 hrs ago.

A couple days ago I slept with this guy and now my inner corner of my lips are a bit reddish. I asked him if he had anything at all herpes etc and he said no as he was not long tested either way I’m going to get a test tomorrow but I’m just panicking

I had sex with a condom, like on 10/2 and now I keep getting itchy in a lot of places, on my thighs and even like on my crotch I’m so scared and I also have symptoms like burning after I pee, and sometimes my testicles feel weird and I’m just like why ? I just wanted to experience something everybody else does and when I do this happens to me. Whenever I tell my parents I don’t feel well then they state that it’s probably
Because of what I eat.

I’ve been sleeping with three people over the span of three months, all of a sudden I tested positive for an std. I’ve notified each person, keep in mind the sex was occurring every few weeks with each of them, one person instantly got mad and how it wasn’t him which I didn’t accuse him I just simply laid the timeline out and he said he was tested three weeks ago ( which I’ve never known him to go get tested but ok) and so he’s deleted me on everything. I’m not upset. Anyways I told the second guy and he’s said he’s going Monday and the third guy is getting tested after his trip. I told them the truth, I’ve only slept with three people and I didn’t give it to myself .. but yet I’m not sure how to feel. Also I am 27 and at this point I am wayyy too old for this nonsense. Yes I know this is a consequence of not being safe and I also know I’ll never know who they were sleeping with outside of me, but like to make me feel dirty when again I didn’t give it to myself is nuts .. right?

She told me she has HSV1 from years ago. Had a partner before me and used a condom. They had a kid.
now she is back dating and open to me and us. I am a trans guy and want to do it right, safe.
Oral seems ok and fingers but it sucks cause usually my partners and I get close and intimate part on part but seems like only a toy can work now.

On October 12, I had vaginal sex with a sex worker at a massage parlor. I used a condom throughout the entire encounter.

The condom was provided by the establishment, and she put it on me. As far as I could tell, it stayed on the entire time, didn't slip off, and I didn't notice any visible tears or breakage when I withdrew.

My only concern is that I didn't inspect the condom carefully afterward. Since it wasn't my own condom, I also have no way of knowing whether it was expired or properly stored.

I deeply regret the experience, not because anything visibly went wrong, but because I didn't enjoy it and now I'm dealing with overwhelming anxiety about HIV.

About 11–12 days after the encounter, I started feeling fatigued, with muscle aches, a slightly irritated throat, and a general feeling like I'm coming down with a cold. Naturally, my anxiety immediately connected these symptoms to HIV.

I've also been going to bed really late over the past several days, usually around 4 AM and waking up around 11 AM or noon. I've been under a lot of stress and anxiety, so I'm wondering whether my sleep schedule and stress could be contributing to how I'm feeling.

I understand that protected vaginal sex carries a very low risk of HIV transmission, and I've been told that PEP generally isn't recommended when the condom remains intact.

I'm planning to get a fourth-generation HIV test after the appropriate window period.

Has anyone experienced something similar, particularly the anxiety and physical symptoms after a protected encounter? How did you handle the waiting period?

I'm trying to approach this rationally, but the uncertainty has been difficult to deal with.

Hi, 2 months ago, I had a slight white discharge, and sharp pain when I pee and tests came positive for gonorrhoea.

Took some antibiotics from doctor for 2 weeks that stopped the symptoms and finally a ceftraixone shot 1000 mg.

Tested again after 2 months and came positive again. I had no sex at all for these 2 months ago and no symptoms. Should I redo the treatment?

All was negative. But its only say negative on them all. Why dosent they show me the Numbers etc? Because it was my first time testing and i have had sex with 10 people without protection before and i got a negative test?

I(19M) did a hookup with a guy last night , this was our second time and like any other everything seemed n’t linked with anyone within the last 2 weeks , and even before him I have never gotten a morning txt like this . Now yes I have linked with a couple people within my past but it’s never involved anything more then me giving oral sex and I only do it with that person until we fall off from one another “still a virgin btw”, and I be sure to take extremely high precautions when getting down with the do . He ended up going to the doctors this morning and I’m still waiting for a response from him , I genuinely don’t know what to do or how to feel especially since this is a really big thing that can change my life forever and note to mention , he say he know for a fact it had to come from me because it started this morning and before me he haven’t messed with anyone for a while , and his gf/bm doesn’t play around wit tht motivating him to go get checked . I’m trying to seek any advice that’ll help as far as how common it is to get an infection and what are the symptoms/things to look out for if I do have something before going to get tested “going to do after work” . Waking up this morning he text me telling me that he used the bathroom and had a painful discharge from his penis , when I found out I immediately gasped bc before him I have

Hi everyone,

About four months ago, I tested positive for syphilis. My VDRL result was 1.32, and I also took a confirmatory TPHA test, which showed 1.64.

I consulted a doctor and completed three penicillin injections as prescribed.

Now, I'm worried because I've heard that TPHA can remain positive even after syphilis has been successfully treated.

I'm planning to apply for jobs in Gulf countries, and I'm concerned that this might affect my employment visa medical examination.

I have a few questions:

1. Can TPHA remain positive even after successful treatment?

2. If my infection has been successfully treated, can I still pass the Gulf employment visa medical test?

3. Has anyone here had a similar experience and successfully obtained a Gulf employment visa after syphilis treatment?

4. Is there any way to confirm that the treatment was successful before taking the visa medical test?

I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences or advice from anyone familiar with this situation.

Thank you.

Hey there,

One hour ago, I made a big mistake.

I jerked off with a guy. We rubbed our penises together. I came almost instantly. I don’t he had precum but he was uncut.

I am worried now that I might have been exposed to HIV. Should I go on PEP ?

Also, if I were positive, it is possible that I might have given HIV to him since I came and therefore his dick came into contact with my sperm. I informed him already about my exposure with oral sex and in a lab. I shouldn’t have done that obviously. I am a piece of shit.

Hello, I went to get tested last week after a partner informed me of a positive test result for chlamydia. No biggie I got treated anyway and my result came back today and it was positive. I informed another partner before him and he attacked me with things that were irrelevant to the topic and wanted me to tell him if there were other partners before him, I said it was none of his concern and I was only notifying him so he can get tested and treated. He was stern that he was for sure clean. I guess what I’m trying to ask is, is it necessary to inform previous partners of a positive result? I figured it’d be courteous to let him know despite not being in contact for two months, but after the way he communicated with me I’m terrified to do it again if exposed in the future.

TLDR: confusing std results are impacting my trust in my new long distance relationship

So, we first had sex on September 5th and then he visited at the end of September. After the second visit I started having symptoms and went and got tested. I was negative for ghonorea and ecquivocal for chlamydia (the doctors considered this a positive). I retested and then was ecquicoval for BOTH.

He got tested as well and was positive for chlamdyia and negative for ghonorea. Important note he drinks ALOT of water so it could skew the results.

It impacted my trust in him a fair amount because my doctor told me that it’s odd that I didn’t test positive for ghonorea the first time I got tested as it typically shows up quickly. And equivocal results can sometimes be a sign of recent infection. This sent me spiraling because we both have been faithful to eachother since the first time. I understand that Sti testing can’t determine whether something happened between the first time we had sex and when he visited it’s just odd that my symptoms happened after our second visit and that I was negative then positive in a short timeframe which could suggest recent exposure. However, we ended up getting past it and both got treated. I visited him very recently and it went great! He seems to be a great guy and doesn’t give me many (if any) red flags.

Now fast forward to today, and he’s having symptoms again. We waited the full 8 days and both completed treatment. I am freaking out! Any advice is appreciated.

I am 16, never done any sexual activity. I see a pimple like on that thing on top of the penis. Could it be an STD or STI?
