Question 4

i have a question about bv and yeast infections.  i have read horror stories online of having oral sex and sex with a yeast or bv infection and passing it on to a male partner.  i have read that the male partner can go symptom free, but live with bacteria

Accepted Answer

Little if any risk: I think you're searching the web too hard for bad news! Some cases of BV in women may be related to cunnilingus (oral-vaginal contact), but no known risk to the oral partner of women with BV. Yeast can be transferred to the mouth, but it's uncommon and easy to treat if it happens. Most yeast infections aren't from another person, but increased growth of the person's natrual yeasts already present.

Question 5

why are my questions not being answered is it because i use the free one?

Accepted Answer

We all answer: For free, there is no fee at least as i know for me. Sometimes the questions are out of our expertise and we skip, hoping that someone specialized for your question will answer it.  Sometimes, the questions are pushed down in order so we don't get to see them. Sorry, but if i see your question and i feel comfortable with it, i always answer.

Question 6

can there be anywhere i can get free online counseling?

Accepted Answer

Maybe, but....: Why not see someone face to face, which is a better way to talk about things?  There are places where you can get free or low cost in-person therapy.  Check with local universities that have graduate programs in psychology and counseling, agencies like family service agencies, catholic charities, or united way.  Since you asking this question from ny city, there are many places available.

Question 10

can you tell me about immunity and i am having a difficult time with finding information on hypergammaglobulinemia. so my question is what is it?

Accepted Answer

Low IgG: Immunoglobulins are a type of protein made by your body to help protect it against infections.  There are five types of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM.  Each of these has a slightly different function in infection fitting.  Hypogammaglobulinemia refers to low levels of IgG the primary infection fighting antibody.
