Question 1

is there a difference between sexually transmitted oral herpes and obtaining oral herpes through genetics? can you do a test to find out?

Accepted Answer

I would not think so: I have not heard of genetically aquired herpes. Herpes is a viral infection that can only be transmitted by direct contact with an infected person with active lesions. Oral herpes can be spread orally thru kissing and genitally via oral sex. There is medication taken daily that greatly decreases your chances of having any active lesions called valtrex (valacyclovir). See your doctor for a prescription.

Question 2

i had a wart besides my scrotum and one in between my legs, or that zone and were removed. my family has many warts, and my grandfather had a wart on his genital zone. could it be genetics and its a common wart? im a virgin, no sexual contact?

Accepted Answer

Common wart: Various strains of the HPV virus cause warts in specific tissues. The location of the wart on normal skin surfaces like near the scrotum /on the legs/on fingers/is specific to the strains involved. Acquisition is by chance contact with the germ, not passed in genes.  Genital warts are caused by different strains passed during sex.

Question 3

i'm wondering what effect will a trauma to my testicles cause to the development of my sexual organs?

Accepted Answer

At your age: There is no more development, but there are consequences to trauma. See a urologist for evaluation/limiting the on going damage and future impaired function.

Question 4

can you please list the common causes of sexual aversion disorder?

Accepted Answer

Sexual trauma: I have worked with many people who were sexually abused as children or teens and some of them have a strong aversion to any kind of sexual relationship no matter how healthy. This aversion to normal, health sex can be helped by working with a psychologist who is trained in treated sexual trauma. There are other causes too but this is one I have seen. Be well, .

GYN: Time to get a pelvic exam and check for common female infections with cultures. You may need specific antibiotics depending on the results.

Question 7

with a diagnoses of schizoaffective disorder cause a person to change like sexual desire, motivation, and being social?

Accepted Answer

That is possible.: If someone had manic symptoms they may have increased libido, interact more with others & be very productive in activities. If someone had depressed symptoms they might have a reduced sex drive, isolate more from others & become less motivated. If the person is psychotic, how they behave may not be predictable. These are generalizations. But a person can change depending on what state they are in.

Question 8

does a sexual disease cause me to miss my period ?

Accepted Answer

Unprotected sex: Unprotected sex is great way to catch sexually transmitted diseases as well as to become pregnant. So while STD might not cause you to miss your period, pregnancy certainly could do so. Best way to find out is to take home pregnancy test.

Question 9
