No: Not STD, not related to HIV. It can be cured once diagnosed, talk to your treating doc about the best plan going forward.

Agree with Dr. P: H pylori causes infection in stomach and can result in ulcers. It is transmitted through food, not sex. It is treatable with antibiotics. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
