Question 1

I'm experiencing some issues with lubrication during sex, and it's started just in the last 15 days. My partner and I got married 6 months ago, and everything was fine until recently. It's a bit worrying, and I'm not sure what might be causing it or how to fix it. Could there be any specific reasons for this change, or should we try something specific to help?

Accepted Answer

It's common to experience lubrication issues due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. I recommend trying water-based lubricants for comfort and discussing this with your doctor to rule out any underlying causes, like hormonal imbalances or dryness. Open communication with your partner can also help reduce stress during intimacy.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Question 3

I had a scare today when the condom broke while I was with a sex worker around noon. We put on another one and finished, but now I'm really worried. I spoke to a doctor and ended up getting some PEP meds - tinofovir disoproxil and raltegravir zepdon ...

Accepted Answer

I understand your concern, and it's good that you've already consulted a doctor. **PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis)** is effective if started within 72 hours of possible exposure to HIV. Since you started the medication with guidance, it can help reduce the risk of HIV infection. It's important to complete the full 28-day course. You should also follow up with your healthcare provider for HIV testing after about 4 weeks and again at 3 months to ensure accurate results. Stay safe and follow medical advice closely.

Question 4

I'm a bit worried because my period is late by 4 days this month, even though they've been regular before. Last month, my period started on September 2nd, but I had dengue then and maybe because of the fever or weakness, my flow was really low. Do yo...

Accepted Answer

It's not uncommon for your menstrual cycle to be slightly delayed after an illness like dengue, as it can affect your hormones and overall health. If the delay is only a few days and there are no other concerning symptoms, it should be okay, but if the delay continues or you experience unusual symptoms, it might be worth consulting your doctor for reassurance.

Question 5

I've been having some pain in my left testicle on and off. What could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

Pain in the left testicle that comes and goes can be caused by various factors, such as **muscle strain**, **epididymitis** (inflammation of the epididymis), or even **testicular torsion**, although the latter is typically more sudden and severe. If the pain persists or is accompanied by swelling or other symptoms, it's important to see a healthcare provider for an evaluation and to rule out any serious conditions.
