A member asked:
The adult male i am dating is being treated for oral yeast infection. i have no symptoms, how long ago was he exposed, is he a cheater. me worry?

You should worry: Oral yeast infections in adults suggest some form of immune suppression, the most common of which in this day and age is HIV disease. You should be checked for stds including HIV and have only protected sex until you know what is going on. That is particularly true if you think he is "cheating".
