A member asked:

I had sex a week ago and 3days. no symptoms just coughing like a real lot. does that mean i have std? reply asap...i am freaking out...thank you.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Std: Unprotected sex leads to spread of stds, not many of which lead to a cough. Practice protected sex and see someone about your cough. You may have caught something other than an std from your partner.
