View allI've been a bit anxious about my recent test results. My p24 for HIV-1 came back negative at 45 days, and the HIV-1 and 2 antibody test was also negative at 50 days. Should I still be considering any further checkups or follow-ups? I'm trying to make sure I'm not missing anything and would really appreciate your advice.
It is unlikely that you have been infected with HIV. However, it is generally recommended to confirm these results with another test after 90 days to be completely sure. No further checkup is needed at this time.

I've been dealing with itching around my testicles for about three months now and the cream my doctor suggested hasn't really helped. I'm getting worried and wonder what else I could do to help with this issue. Do you have any advice on how to improve this situation?
Use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole on the affected areas. Take guidance from a doctor to determine the frequency of application. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting underwear made of breathable fabric, and avoiding scratching the area can also help alleviate the itching. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm a guy in my mid-20s and had a healthy sex life before. I got a hair transplant in February, and my dermatologist recommended I use More F5 solution with topical 5% minoxidil and finasteride. After using it for about 17 days, applying 10 drops once a day on the transplanted area, I started having ED problems. I stopped using it immediately. It's been like 15 days since I stopped, and I might be a bit better, but I'm honestly not sure. My dermatologist then suggested minovera, which is just the topical 5% minoxidil without finasteride, and after only 2 days, I had the same erection issues, using it the same way as before. Now it's been 7 days since I quit minovera, but I'm still having ED issues. I've read reviews where people say they had these side effects even after stopping minoxidil for three months. My dermatologist says it's just temporary and all in my head since the half-life of minoxidil is 24 hours. I'm really convinced it's not just in my mind. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
It sounds like youve experienced some concerning side effects after using minoxidil and finasteride, which can sometimes affect sexual health. While your dermatologist is correct that these effects can be temporary, it's important to address your concerns seriously. I recommend consulting with a urologist or another specialist to explore any underlying issues and to get personalized guidance on managing these symptoms.
