Question 1

I had oral sex with a girl and ejaculated in her mouth back in November 2018 and I didn't know her blood status. Eight days after the encounter, I did a PCR RNA test and it was negative. Then, at one month, I took an HIV Tridot and syphilis test, both negative. At 75 days, I repeated the HIV Tridot and Syphilis VDRL tests, and they were also negative. I took the HIV Tridot and Syphilis VDRL tests again on January 30. Those came back negative too. Is the HIV Tridot test accurate after 82 days? I'm really anxious about this...

Accepted Answer

It's understandable to feel concerned, but based on the tests you've had, including the HIV Tridot after 82 days, it is highly accurate, and a negative result is reassuring. HIV testing generally gives reliable results after 3 months, so you can have peace of mind. If you still feel anxious, consulting with a healthcare provider for further guidance is always a good step.

Question 2

I've been struggling with a habit that started when I was 13 and now at 19, it's become something I do daily. I find myself watching porn regularly and I really need some advice. What can I do to change this? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Breaking the porn addiction cycle requires self-awareness, support, and strategies. Here are daily steps:

Self-Awareness

1. Recognize triggers: Identify situations, emotions, or people triggering cravings.
2. Set goals: Define why you want to quit (e.g., relationships, mental health, productivity).

Strategies

1. Replace porn with healthy habits: Exercise, meditation, reading, or hobbies.
2. Use website blockers: Tools like Freedom, SelfControl, or Cold Turkey.
3. Seek support: Share with trusted friends, family, or a therapist.
4. Practice self-care: Get enough sleep, eat balanced meals, and engage in relaxing activities.
5. Challenge negative thoughts: Reframe porn-related thoughts with positive affirmations.

Additional Tips

You're not alone. Overcoming porn addiction takes time, effort, and patience. Stay committed, and seek help when needed.

Question 3

I'm 31, pretty active, and married, but I've noticed my sexual desire is really low. Honestly, if I'm not pushed, I could go without even thinking about sex. It's starting to get to me mentally, and with plans to start a family soon, I'm a bit worrie...

Accepted Answer

Your symptoms are complex and multifaceted. It's great that you're seeking further evaluation.

ENT specialists can help diagnose issues related to:

- Ear pain and clogged sensations
- Sinus and throat issues

However, neuralgia or nerve issues might be better evaluated by:

- A neurologist (for trigeminal neuralgia)
- An oromaxillofacial specialist (for TMJ disorders)

Consider asking your ENT specialist for a referral to one of these specialists.

Before your appointment:

- Keep a detailed symptom journal
- Write down all your symptoms and when they occur
- Share this information with your ENT specialist

Question 4

I've been masturbating for the past 6 years without actually removing my clothes, like on my underwear. Is there any chance this could lead to an infection?

Accepted Answer

Masturbating in this manner may increase the risk of developing a genital infection due to the warm and moist environment created by the underwear. It is important to maintain good hygiene practices to reduce the risk of infection. You can use antifungal creams like Clotrimazole 1% cream to prevent or treat any potential fungal infections.

Question 5

I'm looking to find ways to reduce my sexual desires and I'm wondering if there are any medications available for this. Could you provide some guidance on this issue?

Accepted Answer

It's important to approach concerns about sexual desire with care. Medications like **anti-androgens** or **selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)** may be prescribed in certain cases to help reduce sexual drive, but these should only be taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional. I recommend discussing your concerns with a doctor who can provide a personalized treatment plan.

Question 6

Can I take Duralast 30mg twice in one day if I want to use it once in the morning and again at night? And is there a stronger pill out there that can help with delaying ejaculation just for one-time use?

Accepted Answer

Duralast (30mg) is typically prescribed for once-daily use, and taking it twice in one day may increase the risk of side effects. For delaying ejaculation, there are other options like **Priligy (dapoxetine)**, which is specifically designed for on-demand use. It's important to consult with your doctor before adjusting the dosage or trying new medications.
