Can I take metronidazole to prevent sexual infections?
I am 21 years, I want to know if I can take metronidazole 400mg tablets to prevent sexual infections

Answered on 3rd July '24
Metronidazole is a cure for infections, but it is not used to prevent sexual infections. Unprotected sex could be avoided by using birth control. Sexually transmitted infections can occur by germs that are transferred during sex without a condom. Proper use of protectors such as condoms and regular medical check-ups should be covered. You can also see a doctor who can give you the right medicine if you think you are infected.

Can mastrabtion on bed cause any kind of stis
Male | 29
Masturbation can't give you a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Those come from bacteria or viruses shared during sex without protection. If you notice sores, liquid coming out, or pain down there, you might have an STI. See a doctor then, to get checked and treated.

I wiped my sperm with my clothe and again I wiped my girlfriend private part is become pregnant because she getting delayed periods it's been 5 days Till last month is was normal menstruation cycle
Female | 23
Feeling concerned is an expected reaction at the moment. Periods that are missed could be a sign of getting pregnant, but they can also be a result of stress, hormonal abnormalities, or other conditions. From what you told me, the probability of pregnancy is low, but it would be wise to carry out a pregnancy test for confirmation. I suggest letting a few days go by and then trying once more, if that is necessary. In case periods are still not settled or there are other issues, it would be better to take a gynecologist's opinion and help.

Hello doctor my age is 27 and I am facing sexual problems due to excess mastrubation, my sperm has become like water and my penis is also shrinked it doesn't takes 30 sex to ejaculate, after ejaculation my penis gets very small and any my sperm count has also become less, please tell me some solution about how can I stop this bad habit.
Male | 27
One thing to mention, reduce the number of times masturbate and the alternative to stress such as engaging in hobbies or involving yourself in physical exercise. Also, the points of view of those who have never masturbated can be offered as advantages. It would be most beneficial to exercise, eat healthily, and drink a lot of water. If the symptoms do not go away after some time or if they become more severe, then it is of utmost importance that you seek advice from a sexologist giving full cooperation to help you deal with certain conditions.

Postimor effective if taken today 11am but had unprotected sex some hours ago 9:00 will it still work or do i have to take another an how many times for a year can females use postinor?
Female | 26
Postinor's priority is the quickest the better. You can still take the doctor-prescribed pill even though it was not taken the hour prior but you can still get another pill just to be extra sure. Women are not permitted to use Postinor more than once every month. It is important to note that Postinor is an emergency contraceptive and should not be used as a regular storage of drugs. If any discomforts occur or strange symptoms show up, a sexologist must be consulted.

I'm 19 years old whenever I mastrubate i became fat and my ass brest fat become big I dont know what to do
Male | 19
Masturbation itself does not cause weight gain or changes in breast or buttock size. Factors like hormones, diet, and lifestyle can influence body composition and fat distribution. To promote a healthy body, consider regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and staying hydrated. If you are worried about your body image or notice significant changes, it may be helpful to speak with a sexologist. They can provide personalized guidance and support.

Hi doctor, my name is adil m 34 years old i am from oman, in my case i have met a women and she is from Sudan, basically she was call girl, i have touched her body and she was touching mine, i fingered her vagina and it was wet ( ejaculated, she gave her back i hugged her and my penis touched multiple times to her vagina thru in between her legs , also i rubbed my penis to her body not to vagina, and i ejaculated, after some hours my penis tip started burning and after couple of days the burning sensation and pain increased, i went to the doctor and after culture urine and crp test and cbc test they found i have bacteria and infection in my urine and prostate, but he didnt mention the name or type of bacteria, he prescribed me cefim 400 once day for 10 days, am i risk of hiv?
Male | 34
How Adil, I am the one who has of my son got troubles. It is very much natural to be worried after having such trauma. Burning and pain which you tell about almost any time are commonly peculiar for urinary or prostate infection, which is usually bacteria-caused. Cefim is a real help in the treatment, and one should still go through the entire course. As for HIV, your risk is most likely lower if there was no direct bodily fluid contact, but besides, it is critical to do the test for the overall confidence. Please consult your doctor for further advice and testing to ensure your health and that you have peace of mind. Take care!

Male | rahul
Nightfall is normal. Your body's dropping off some semen while you're asleep, that’s all. It could be activated by stress, sleeping in a weird position, or thinking sex-related thoughts before bed. Try not to get too excited before sleeping and practice good sleep hygiene – it might help stop things going bump in the night. If this doesn’t work after a while (like more than say three months), then maybe see a sexologist about it.

I have a spot on my penis that hurts and a constant erection I cannot get to stop.
Male | 21
The pain from the spot on the penis can mean an early sign of penile scabs due to an infection, or inflammation, therefore, one should immediately consult an urologist or sexologist. Like sexually transmitted diseases, such things can cause further injury or inflammation that would eventually lead to severe pain and a permanent hard-on of your penis.

My sperm discharge when I do the leg exercises for only 2-3 minutes, what should I do ??
Male | 15
Experiencing fluid discharge during physical activity may be linked to muscle contractions affecting nearby organs. This is not uncommon and could be related to excessive strain or heightened pelvic blood flow during exercise. To alleviate this, ensure you're warming up properly and consider modifying your workouts to lessen intensity. Staying hydrated and incorporating relaxation techniques can also be beneficial. However, it's important to monitor your symptoms. If this persists or causes concern, I recommend consulting a sexologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized advice.

I am 16 years old . I am having some issues with my penis . It is not standing. It is not getting hard . It's skin is getting bad . I have been masturbating for the past few years. I really want to make my penis thick and increase size .
Male | 17
The penis is a complex body part. Sometimes, it doesn't get firm during arousal. Skin issues around the penis may occur too. These problems often arise from excessive self-pleasuring. Penis size and girth are largely predetermined by genetics. They can't change significantly. Using a gentle lotion may help soothe irritated penile skin. Masturbating less frequently promotes stronger erections.

I have unprotected sex with my girlfriend and I don’t even know her status so she decided to start Pep within 72 hours.. The doctor gave me ltd tablets for 30 days The issue is on the 3th and 5th day I had unprotected sex once again so I’m now worried about the new exposure I’m now on the 7th day of my course and I’m drinking tablets every day
Male | 28
It's understandable to feel concerned about potential exposure after unprotected intercourse, especially while on post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). PEP is effective in reducing the risk of HIV, but it must be taken consistently for the full course. It's important to monitor your health for any flu-like symptoms, which can indicate an infection. I strongly encourage you to consult sexologist to discuss your situation and possibly explore additional testing. They can provide tailored advice and support, ensuring both you and your girlfriend are safe and well-informed.

Factors can include anxiety, arousal levels, or physical sensitivities. It's common for many men to experience quicker ejaculation, especially after a period of abstinence. If it becomes a recurring issue, consider discussing it with a sexologist who can provide guidance tailored to your situation.

While masturbation with a ballpoint-pen, I found my "ball-point" missing. Will it be inside my body? Will it do any harm ? How to remove it ?
Female | 34
If this circumstance is the one that you think about the most, then you should be worried. In case you find an object inside your body, you may feel symptoms such as pain, discomfort, or unusual bleeding. You should keep yourself calm. The most effective method is to look for medical aid immediately. At the clinic, the doctor can conduct a check-up and escort out anything that is necessary. It would be better to avoid the impulse to take it out yourself as getting hurt will be inevitable.

sir my problem is ,i am 26 years old but due to my bad habits my penis size is very small and thin ,time of sex is very less now how can i make my penis size bigger, thicker and increase time
Male | 26
It's common to feel concerned about the size of your penis, nevertheless be assured that size does not define your capacity for enjoyment of sex. Sometimes the issue of size may be due to stress or expectations that are not very realistic. Maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating well, working out, and dealing with stress. You can also train your pelvic floor muscles to be able to hold longer. You have to be aware that ultimate satisfaction is achieved through the connection and communication with your partner, not just through physical size.
