Syphilis conceals itself for years, showing no signs. This dormant phase might stretch over decades. However, once symptoms emerge, they include sores, rashes, and flu-like sensations. Fortunately, syphilis responds well to antibiotic treatment, so your friend must consult a doctor promptly. Even without obvious symptoms, treatment remains effective. It's good that your friend got tested, uncovering the situation. Remain vigilant, and offer support during this journey. With proper care, syphilis can be managed successfully.

is it possible to get pregnant if the fingers had pre cum on but he wiped it with his shorts and touched other things then after many minutes he touched my wet clitoris?
Female | 19
Being pregnant from your situation is quite uncommon. Pregnancy needs sperm traveling into the vagina and meeting an egg. Pre-cum might contain sperm, but becoming pregnant from only touching it than your clitoris is highly improbable. Using protection during sexual activity prevents pregnancy best. If you're worried or have strange symptoms, speaking with a gynecologist about your specific circumstances is a wise choice.

1 year ago I do unprotected oral sex and there is a redness on my penis head sometime it’s look totally red sometime it’s look I am fine recently I tested for vdrl,rpr, treponemal,hiv,hcv,hsbag reports are negative so what should be the problem and what test should I do now??
Male | 24
The redness on the head of your penis can be the result of irritation or a mild infection. It may be beneficial to visit a dermatologist to get a more concrete picture. These people can do a physical examination and may even recommend other tests. Wash the area frequently and stay away from strong soaps or lotions that may further irritate it.

Hi Doc. I'd like to ask after the healing process of viginaplasty, can trans women still feel sexual feelings, and do they also feel satisfaction during intercourse?
Male | 25
After getting a vaginoplasty, trans women can feel pleasure during sex. It takes weeks or months to heal. Some pain is normal at first, but it gets better. Listen to your plastic surgeon for an easy recovery.

Growing a desire to engage in sexual activity becomes one of the most characteristic features of the time of puberty. But if you want to cut back a bit, you may try looking for some hobbies or activities.

Premature ejaculation, I masturbate in my fast, senen passes with urine, when I talk or chat with my girlfriend automatically Water type liquid comes from my penis
Male | 28
You might be experiencing premature ejaculation and urinary leakage, which are common issues. Premature ejaculation occurs when a person reaches climax too quickly during sexual activity, while urinary leakage can occur due to muscle problems. The fluid may resemble either semen or urine. Engaging in relaxation exercises during intimate moments and following advice such as pelvic floor strengthening sessions or consulting a medical professional can help address these concerns.

I'm a 20 year old. I notice that each time I erect, I end up releasing cum(sperm) what seems to be the issue please?
Male | 20
You might be having what’s known as premature ejaculation. This is when you release sperm too quickly during erections. It’s common and can be caused by things like stress, anxiety or even being too excited. To deal with this, you could try deep breathing techniques or distracting yourself with something else while you’re being intimate. Always remember that it’s okay to talk to a sexologist if you want more help or advice.

Can i do marriage after any cure or medication.
Male | 30
It is common for people to do what you do. This act does not usually hurt male sexual power. But, if you have issues like being unable to have sex or low want for sex, it might be due to other things like stress or health issues. To improve your sexual health, you can focus on living a healthy life with regular exercise, eating well, and managing stress. It is good to talk to a sexologist if you have concerns or lasting symptoms.

Sex related Time increase with partner on bed without harming any thing
Male | 26
It's normal to wish for a longer stay in the bed with your partner. Being tired or stressed can sometimes delay this. As a good habit, the tougher the day ends, the better you will feel. Running, yoga, and sleeping herbs can also be helpful. If anxiety continues, booking a consultation with a sexologist should fix the issue.

I am 28 year 7 month old male,i masterbatele daily 4 times since last 13 years ,I am physically and mentally weak,I took antidepressants last 6 month ,but I feel week physically and mentally,what I do sir
Male | 28
Seems like you may be feeling low in energy and strength both physically and mentally due to too much self-stimulation. Doing it 4 times each day may make one tired or weak, so cutting down on the frequency would be good for your body’s recovery. Try to develop healthier routines like working out regularly, eating balanced meals, and resting enough. In case the weakness persists, seek medical advice from a sexologist.

I had protected sex with a prostitute will i get hiv although i had tested result was negative will i need to test again ??
Male | 28
If your results were negative, then that is great news. Do not forget that it might take several weeks for the virus to be detected in tests. If you are still concerned, it would be prudent to go for testing again after a couple of months.

I am 22 years I have premature ejaculation
Male | 22
Premature ejaculation is a condition that is characterized by the fact that the man finishes too soon during sex, in most cases a minute. The most common symptoms are the quick finish, the stress, and the avoidance of intimacy. Causes can be anxiety, excitement, or bad experiences that one has gone through. Don't panic, there are ways to help, such as breathing exercises, changing positions, or talking openly with your partner to reduce stress.

I have a protected sex last night, should I take unwanted 72 pill, I m 21 years old?
Female | 21
If you had protected sex and the condom didn't break, you likely don't need to take Unwanted 72. However, if you're worried or unsure, it’s always best to consult with a gynecologist for personalized advice.
