STD’s are transmitted through direct contact through broken skin, open wounds, but mostly through mucosal membranes which is not what above scenario describes. A reliable site is cdc.gov in clarifying STD transmission in general. High risk sexual behavior may exacerbate health (STD) related anxiety.

Noticed boyfriend has red discoloration around groin/ penis. He scratches often. No STDs and had sex only once. Could this be a yeast infection?

Red discoloration: Yes she could have a fungal infection or he may be putting something on that area that he is allergic to. Even a strong soap could cause that problem.

Yes that is possible if he does have an STD. Both you and your partner should be checked for STDs by your PCP,
Be careful and use a condom.
