Answered on 22nd July '24
If one suspects to have been exposed to HIV, a regular test is one of the vital things to do. There are cases where the virus needs some time to be discovered during tests. HIV symptoms are different for example vomiting, fatigue, and enlarged glands (lymph nodes). The simple statement that must be kept in mind is that using a protector for the services is the one and that is the first option. In case of any issue, do not forget to consult a doctor.

I had an protected sex with an unknown lady a month back. I am afraid am i under risk of getting STI? Especially HIV?.
Male | 30
Yes, there is a risk of getting an STI, including HIV, even if you use protection, as no method is 100% foolproof. It's important to visit a doctor, preferably a specialist like a dermatologist, for proper testing and advice. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing any potential infection.

I forgot to pinch the tip of the condom while wearing it and there’s bubble on the tip of the condom but wore it properly and there is no breakage, spillage or leak. While the sperm came in the condom we immediately stopped sex and the sperm is inside the bubble in the top Is it consider safe?
Female | 19
If the condom didn't break and all the sperm is properly stored inside that bubble at the top, you should be fine. That bubble is there to catch any liquids, like sperm and is normal. Just make sure to remove the condom carefully to prevent spills. The bubble won't cause any harm.

I am 21 years old male. Recently had an improper unprotected sex with my girlfriend. But didn't ejaculated inside her but I am scared of getting her pregnant. It's our first time.
Male | Arun
It's important to get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) after unprotected sex, even if there are no symptoms. I recommend visiting a doctor, specifically a urologist, who can provide appropriate testing and guidance. Please ensure to discuss this with your partner as well.

Tadalafil 2.5 mg is a medicine used for erectile dysfunction. This means trouble getting or keeping an erection firm. The drug helps by increasing blood flow to the private area. Many things like stress, anxiety, or health problems can cause erectile dysfunction. Talking to a doctor about using tadalafil may help if you have this issue.

I had sex with someone I don't know. And I used condoms for safety. But my mind is full of thought about getting STD and HIV. Still now I don't have any symptoms. Am I safe ?
Male | 25
Using a condom for protection when having sex is good. Condoms are perfect at stopping STDs and HIV as long as they are applied correctly. No symptoms it is a great sign. Symptoms may include sores, discharge, or pain. If you want, get tested for peace of mind. You should always pay attention to your health.

The problem is not getting turned on easily even with a lot of foreplay and other stuff
Female | 23
Difficulty in getting aroused sexually may be due to a variety of factors, which include stress, anxiety, depression, hormonal imbalance, or some kind of medicine she might be taking. It is better to go for proper diagnosis and treatment from a qualified sexologist or gynecologist. They can provide counseling services, hormone therapies, or medicines that can help in this condition.

Male | 20
You seem worried after unprotected intimacy. Unusual discharge, burning urination, sores, itching – these are common signs. Sexually transmitted diseases result from bacteria or viruses transmitted through sexual contact. Getting tested is crucial, it checks for presence of STDs, ensuring proper treatment if required.

hello! so after my bf cummed, he has sperm on his left hand the most but on the other hand there are only a few or just a teeny tiny amount of sperm in it. he wiped both hands with a cloth and he rinsed both of his hands with milktea ( to ensure there are no other sperm alive and also bc that is the only liquid with us at the moment ) and used the same cloth to dry his hands and proceeds to finger me with the right hand ( which only has a tiny amount of sperm ) are there chances of pregnancy? i’m so scared bc i have been bloated since that day and was nauseous just yesterday. but the bloating part was on and off and it only occurs time to time
Female | 20
It’s highly improbable you could be pregnant now. There were very few sperms on the hand, moreover, they most likely died after being rinsed off with milk tea. The abdominal distention and vomiting might have nothing to do with pregnancy. The thing is that different things such as eating habits, stress, or hormonal background can cause bloating and nausea. If these symptoms do not go away, I suggest visiting a gynecologist who will help you figure out what’s going on and how to deal with it.

I had sex last night it was double condom, what are the chances of me getting HIV, and should I start PEP drug?
Male | 31
First of all, never use two condoms at once because they will rub against each other and could break, which would increase the chances of HIV, not decrease them like some believe. Also, did you know that there is still a possibility of getting HIV even if only one condom is used? Therefore I recommend asking a doctor about PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) drugs in case one had sex without protection.

Male | 30
Managing stress, eating well, and being active can improve such a state. Either of you experiences stress, fatigue, or certain health problems that make you feel less strong or big during the game. Lack of adequate sleep may also contribute to such feelings. In case you have any worries seek medical attention immediately by a sexologist.

Me and my girlfriend wear wearing the underwear and I rub my penis without any ejaculation will she be pregnant pls tell me I'm in stree
Female | 17
Considering the circumstances, it is improbable that your girlfriend could become pregnant if there was no ejaculation. Nevertheless, it is good to realize that any genital contact has some risk involved. Therefore, if she starts experiencing any unusual signs like missing her periods or having abnormal bleeding; I advise you to go for a pregnancy test so that you can be sure about everything.

Does masturbation causes following problem? Will I face it if I've been frequently masturbating since 13 and now I'm 23 year old? I read this in some article that said - "The prostate is a gland located exactly in the neck of the bladder, it secretes a whitish and viscous liquid that serves as a vehicle for sperm. This gland normally completes its development by the age of 21. When a young man masturbates before completing his development (21 years), the prostate atrophies, causing prostatitis after the age of 40, which is the enlargement of this gland that prevents him from urinating and he has to use the probe to do so. Later they have to operate and remove this gland." Should I worry? Please tell me.

Male | 18
When it comes to sexual issues; you need to know that they can affect anybody at any time due to various reasons. Common signs may include trouble with erections, low libido, and difficulty reaching orgasm. These problems might be brought on by stress, anxiety or fatigue from other areas within your life such as work or school among others; this could also stem from relationship challenges (e.g., arguments), not just illnesses. Please share your specific problem in detail for a better analysis and advice.
