Question 1

my bf has an std :"continum" in french..it looks like a flesh coloured patch of skin he said needs to be burned off..can u tell me what it might be?

Accepted Answer

Wart?: Usually we burn off warts in the genital area. There isn't another std that i can think of that sounds like that. Could it be "condylome"? That's the french translation of condyloma, or genital warts.

Question 2

can i get an std when i change a condom and put a new one on? chances?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: Probably not.  Using condoms is actually one the best methods to prevent sexually transmitted infections.

Question 3

can you get an std from wearing a new swimsuit without washing it? i wore a new one yesterday after removing the crotch liner and am now worried.

Accepted Answer

No worries, but...: Germs are presumed to survive only a short time outside the infected person, so if a swimsuit comes off an infected person and goes immediately onto a second person, it makes sense that the second person can catch the germs if she is the unluckiest person in town. If a swimsuit is washed before the second person wears it, the second person is safe. How unlucky are you?

Question 4

how can you approach an std test with a new partner?

Accepted Answer

Simple tell him: That both of you  need to be tested I am assuming that you are doing this as precautionary and tell him that if u get tested and he doesn't then no sex.

Question 5

Question 6

Accepted Answer

It should not: Having an std, or a history of an std should not be something that needs to go on a work health form.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Question 8

i accidentally purchased two used thongs. i washed both before wearing, but i could i get an std/sti/herpes/etc from wearing used thongs? i did wash first. once i realized they werent new, i threw away. could i get anything from used thongs?

Accepted Answer

: No worries, the wash cycle would have cleaned the undergarments completely.

Question 9

i had a single pimple like thing in my pubic area that i was able to pop like a pimple and have it go away. theres a new one. is it an std/sti?

Accepted Answer

Pimple : These can be "pimples" but they can also be infectious.  Some infections in this region of the body are transmitted sexually. I suggest you have your primary doctor look at the lesion. They can the. Advise you as to the cause and the treatment.  If you are worried that it is an STD then I would refrain from sexual activity until the condition is defined

Question 10

i received oral sex from a new partner. a day later, her past partner from a week prior told her he was having symptoms of urethritis. i began experiencing symptoms of urethritis 4 days later. we all got urine tested, all negative. could it be std?

Accepted Answer

: An STD is a possibility and all who have symptoms should get tested. If anyone is diagnosed with an STD, then all should be treated. Good luck!
