Before you dive into the blog I just want to say one thing:
no matter how much you love your bf and you dont want to
embarrass him, if he has genital warts -
HE MUST TREAT IT.
Or you'll both suffer. Dont just let it be cause you'll pay dearly later on.
If you dont feel comfortable to confront him just do what I did - I got him this really amazing cure after seeing it on ABC news, and I used it to treat him without him even knowing anything about it :)
In the end of the day it doesnt really matter if you take this cure or any other
just treat it and dont ignore it.
Live healthy and enjoy my blog,

my friend just notified my that she got genital warts and thought it was from this guy that we had both had sex with. she told me to get checked to make sure i didnt have it or to get it treated. i was wondering if there was anywhere to get examined for stds where a parent doesnt have to be present because i dont want my parents to find out? for instance does plan parenthood do examinations?
Is this possible, can you catch any other stds like that?
I had sex with a guy last night he told me he didnt have any stds but his friend told me he has genital warts but we only had sex for 10 mins and i told him 2 stop because i didnt want to do anymore without a condom. Can i still get genital warts even though he didnt cum in me? Also his friend said he is taking treatments right now for the genital warts he has medicine for it but he still has the warts.
The tip of my dick is a tad bit red and a little swollen. It came out of nowhere all of a sudden like there was nothing wrong with it this morning or any time prior to now. It stings a lil bit when I touch it. I dabbed a little bit of hydrogen peroxide on it and it did bubble up, so I’m assuming it’s an infection. Most infections I’ve gotten recently have gone away with simple application of alcohol,hydrogen peroxide/vinegar wipe downs as well as neosporin application. But since this is my penis and not my finger, I’m wondering if this should be enough to have it go away in the next few days, as well as holding off on sex. I have no other problems with it no other pains bumps nothing just this little mishap. I also carry no STDs. Should I worry or just give a little time?
After intercourse today, I had small red bumps on the head of my penis. They are very small, have no discharge coming from them, and they itch slightly after intercourse, but the itching goes away. This happened a few weeks ago, and I went to the doctor and was given a cream and it went away. I was tested for STDs, but they messed up on my test and didn’t test me for everything. My girlfriend, who is the only partner I have ever had, has been tested on multiple occasions, and always was clean. I think that it is irritation, because she usually isn’t wet when we start having intercourse, so there is a lot of uncomfortable rubbing. Do you think this is an STD, a yeast infection(she doesn’t have one), or just irritation?
Okay…I know the best answer to this question is: simply abstain from sex.
So I don’t need you to tell me that.
What I’m looking for is if there’s any way that I can minimize the chances of spreading the virus to my partner and still have sex.
I currently have HPV (the most common of all STDs) and it is manifesting itself as anal warts. The warts are entirely concentrated around my anus and are nowhere else (i.e. on my penis or scrotum or anywhere around it).
I understand that HPV can be spread through skin-to-skin contact. But what I don’t understand is: does that mean contact with any part of the skin in my genital region, including the parts that don’t have any warts (i.e. the penis), or does it only mean contact with the skin that has the warts on it (i.e. the anus)?
I’m sorry to ask such as gross question, but it’s kind of serious. I really dont want to spread this virus but I would also really like to be able to have sex with my partner.
I think if we were careful having sex, it would be pretty easy to have her not come into contact with my anus area, and just with my penis (wearing a condom of course).
If I could find some way to even cover up my anus, would that be a good way to prevent the spread of the virus? Any suggestions for this?
Thanks
I think I still need to clarify more.
I have NO intention of my girlfriend doing ANYTHING near my anal area. Thats not my thing.
All I want to know is: Can contact with my penis transmit this virus or not?
Is it possible for an uncircumcised penis to cause an infection in a woman, even if the guy DOESN’T have any STDs?
I’m 14, I’m athletic, and I have a healthy penis. I don’t have any STDs, but there are these small, skin-colored bumps on my penis. They’re not highly noticeable, but they’re there.
Consider this quote:
…the Christian Right is distorting the government’s relationship to science. One example is that we now have a vaccine for the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus, which causes cervical cancer, of which 5000 women die every year in the US. The vaccine, which can be given to girls at age 11 or 12, is safe and effective. Yet evangelical Christians at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention – political appointees – have argued that we should not use this vaccine, because it will remove one of the natural deterrents to premarital sex. Reginald Finger, who’s on the immunization advisory committee of the CDC, has said that even if we had a vaccine against HIV, he would have to think long and hard about whether to use it, because it might encourage premarital sex.
If you worked at the CDC, would you promote the vaccines? Suppose we had cures for ALL STDs, as well as safe, reliable birth control. Would this change your views on premarital sex?
The quote is from an interview with philosopher Sam Harris in the September 2006 issue of The Sun. He made this statement while referring to an article by Michael Specter in the New Yorker.

Ooopsss…the "who" in my question was supposed to be "would" so it should have read: If you had the power to cure all sexually transmitted diseases, would you do it?
Ebemdpa: Your response reminds me of a joke I once heard. A town was flooding and trucks arrived to help people evacuate. One family refused to leave, saying that God would help them. As the flood waters rose higher and higher, the family climbed up on their roof and prayed for God to save them. A coast guard boat arrived. The family refused their help, saying that they had faith that God would save them. The flood waters kept rising and soon a helicopter arrived and lowered a ladder, but the family refused to climb because they were still convinced that God would save them. Eventually they drowned and went to heaven. They were curious and asked God: Our heavenly Father, why did you forsake us? We prayed and prayed, but you let us drown. God shrugged His shoulders and said: “I sent a truck, a boat, and a helicopter. What more do you want?”
Why should you know about sexually-transmitted diseases or infections? What all apply?
A. Some STDs are passed on through genetics
B. Some STDs cause cancer
C. If you have an STD you won’t be able to date anyone
D. Some STDs can make women unable to have children
I’ve had two pap smears and they came back normal. I’ve been tested for all Stds and the results were negatve.
From time to time ( I shave and I’ve stopped shaving and having sex) I get 1 flesh colored bump and then after like a week it will shrink. Sometimes the bump is itchy or it gets irritated.
Is it an ingrown hair?
What do you think it is? And how do I test for it if there is no bump?
Tomorrow I have an appt with my doctor. I’ve been to two other doctors what gave me a visual diagnosis saying what I have is a ingrown hair bump. The health dept that I went to said they only do visual testings for herpes and genital warts. My question is what do I say to my doctor for him to test me for what’s needed for those two stds, I want to know for certain? What test do I ask for? Thanks
