Question 1

can men be tested for hpv?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There are both serum tests (antibody response) and clinical tests for what appear to be HPV lesions. Their  doc  can arrange this.

Question 2

should men have thier blood tested to see if thier hormones are off balance?

Accepted Answer

Doesn't hurt : As men age, their testosterone levels will drop  and this may be evident externally with a protruding abdomen and enlarged breasts.  Libido changes will accompany this.  Would be prudent and check levels if these situations are occurring.

Question 3

how do i tell my bf i have hpv? my last few papsmears came back normal but i got it 3 yrs ago. what does it affect men and how do they get tested?

Accepted Answer

Just tell him: Most women have a few hpv strains on board. If he's worth having, it won't be a problem for your relationship. You may have gotten them from him, and if you've had unprotected sex, he's probably gotten it too. It's a cancer risk for an uncircumcised man and he'll have to keep tabs on himself, but he's an adult that that's not a problem.

Question 4

got two men tested for paternity test on my bby. i only slept with those two about two or three weeks apart. both test came back negative how is that?

Accepted Answer

Impossible...: If you only had sex with two men, then one of them is the father.  Either there was a "testing error" (labs are reliable, if they got the correct specimen this is very unlikely), one of the two men didn't actually get tested, or you have forgotten about another possible father.  Good luck.

Question 5

how should men be tested for std and aids?

Accepted Answer

Blood and Urine: A healthcare provider will order blood and urine tests for HIV and STD screenings after proper counseling and consent.

Question 6

am i pregnant? last mens aug 13.ive tested sept 11 but negative result.but having ahot feeling and other signs of being pregnant

Accepted Answer

Delayed or missed: period? Take another test if you do not get you period a week after the day of your expected period .

Question 7

if i'm a fat gay man with breasts that are larger than other men my same weight, should i get tested for klinefelter's syndrome?

Accepted Answer

One could: but it would mean it is hard to get into good shape; not tht it is impossible. it would not mean that exercise would be worthless--likely has same benefits. Doesn't mean you can't lose someweight..just would be more difficult.

Question 8

can men with atypical cystic fibrosis have children? i have 2 children, i have no symptoms of cf and i am 32 years old. never tested for cf.

Accepted Answer

Yes: Men with CF are not sterile. they get blocked ducts in the reproductive organs from thick secretions. The atypical or late onset CF patient may not get as much blockage and may be able to have children.

Question 9

should people with recurring iritis be tested for lgv? most say no(apparently it's rare in canada and us and is common in gay men and ppl with hiv)

Accepted Answer

LGV: This disease is incredibly uncommon in the usa, and the complication of iritis is even more uncommon in individuals who have lgv.  Let your ophthalmologist make this decision.

Question 10

i cultured positive for herpes.  my igg/igm were negative.  i dated two men during that time prior to exposure. one i kissed platonically. the other i slept with.

the one i had sex with was tested a month  had igg of 26.  did he give it to me?

Accepted Answer

More info needed: Was the positive test oral or genital? It's rare to catch herpes from a platonic kiss. Your sexual exposure was with a partner who almost certainly is infected. If new genital infection, that person is the source. However, 30% of people with HSV1 have negative blood tests. If your positive test is HSV1 not HSV2, and especially if oral, you've had it a long time, not from either of these persons
