obviously alot of ppl didnt know they even have it so they pass it on and on and on even if they are faithful to one partner at a time...but one question can we get it from a kiss?

Yup, discussed before. Herpes virus is an example

No one deserves any STI.

People who gets HIV, HPV, Herpes or any of the wonderful infections are not always sex workers, some are innocent wives, rape victims, accident victims, health workers, children.

When anyone says people with HIV deserves it, it's obvious he's never seen a room full of HIV+ kids, or ward full of patients and not everyone is a IDU, gays or ayams.


Get tested, and when you're absolutely cleared of everything (HIV, HEP A. B, C, Herpes. Syphilis) you can still worry about HPV.

That being said, if you treat sex not as recreational and you're part of the purity ring wearers who actually practise it, what do you have to worry?

Best advice I got which I rarely have the chance to put into practise , is pick and choose your partner wisely, not when you have your beer goggle on, and definitely not under one single red light bulb.

And when you do get lucky, dont even think of doing anything without a rubber, and a glove (or body suit if you're inclined).

And get HEP B vaccine at the very least while you're at it if you were born before 1989 in Malaysia.

Seriously, no one I know who's single is getting any these days. I declare that happy endings on your own is much better option compared to the risks. Or be a stronger man, and just stay celibate until the woman of your dream magically appears with a 34C.

something for you to be aware of, there's a debate going on that many people arent aware of...many people believe it because it is "assumed" to be true because scientific community told them so.

( please pay close attention to what the HIV discoverer says about HIV )

a few things to ponder :

1) did you know the criteria of HIV testing is different in different
countries ? ( example : you can be + in US, and be - in australia for
the SAME person )

2) until today, seems there's no proof that HIV is isolated
( which means those people who is taking the drugs, you are just
committing suicide, because there are a lot of cases that people
who refuse to eat drugs is still alive after 20 years and counting...)

3) until today, people seems to think about how dangerous HIV is until
they ignore how toxic is the medication for HIV is. Example: They
administer a drug called AZT. AZT is a FAIL drug for cancer, told to
be put off sales, but due to people's pressure on "HIV" the US
Government have to presricbe it...many people who are diagnosed
with + are acting out of fear and consume the drugs.

4) Did you know that the HIV testing is testing for NON-SPECIFIC
ANTIBODY and NOT "HIV" virus(it is stated on the label of the testing
that the testing kit used arent use to diagnosed HIV but government
are still using it) ? There are 70 known factors known to make a
person get FALSE POSITIVE.

unfortunately, to pharmaceutical companies, your lives are their profits....their strategy is so good that they manage to fool the public, and I know US is waking up slowly.

Added on April 21, 2009, 12:01 pmGood topic and sharing.

I browsed the first few pages but found out most responses were trying to teach others what to do to prevent sex. However life isnt always in that case. Even we married our dream on who has been with us since primary, one day we do get bored or things do happen, and we are having an affair, who seems nice and goddess-like...
anyway, it is all out of topic discussions.

1) I heard it could stay in our body for 10 yr before it appears?

hmm. how should i say? because its very itchy like those unbearable type..and i did try to use the mirror to see what is going on at there. i noe its a bit yucky..but ya. then i googled out and the symptoms matched mine. so it is.

oic...lol do let me know when u found out ..thx anyway, r u working in the medical line or something? haha....just curious.

Itch is a very significant symptom. But yellowish thick discharge is something else that should be seen frequently even after washing. Is that present? Also, do you use any feminine hygiene wash?

The commenest cause of fungal infection there is usually after an intercourse, then it's after taking antibiotics or just hygiene, which I bet is not the cause. And most of the time, this infection goes away within a week with good hygiene. I'm a little worried why yours has persisted, and still very curious to know how you got it in the first place. Try looking for this answers yourself, it'll help when you can tell the doc this stuff

Medical line it is

fireball is very professional!

sorry for late reply..anyway ya there is some kind of discharge..but its more of watery whitish greyish type... from last time i use sebamed 5.5 wash..but so far no prob until now...hmmm. oh ya it seems that i did try take extra good care of myself n there is hardly any itchyness left..but then the discharge is stil there. so i asume i havent cure?

o. for my case,, i think its caused by the broad spectrum antibiotic that i took for my sore throat earlier. in the process i kena ady. oo are u a doctor or something ? lol

i guess no one heard about HHV before.it is found in GAY@LESBIAN community.

what worst is that HHV can even infect you from a drop of SALIVA.pls digest this.i've read this fact in a Malaysian newspapers.i forgot what newspaper because it was 2-3 years ago.

HHV Virus.identical or worst than HIV.

hey i wanna ask something, my fren having a problem on his penis@_@ , he told me there is something like pink-white bright dot on his penis neck and the curve part there, wat iproblem is this?, he asked me and discussed with some frens, we din meet this kind of thing on our penis but just only him, possible is the sexual disease? something like rashes.

Thank you!

That's a possible cause, but there's many other possibility. The reason why we want to know the cause is so we can prevent further recurrence. Discharge may take awhile, but basic hygiene improvements will totally get yourself out of it!

HHV = Human Herpes Virus, it's common in childhood, and not really an STD. However, since you mentioned HIV, yes, it's a co-factor to AIDS

Sounds totally like an STD. But there's a lot more to know before we can come to a diagnosis. Hope he gets well soon, and maybe stop his sexual activities for now.

he dint have any sexual intercourse before, but got this kind of thing on his penis. is it the problem of he dint wash properly or too dirty so caused this kind of disease?

Possible to get sores on the penis if it's not clean. There will be built up of urea from the urine, and that would cause problems like dermatitis. However, it's not small red nodules.. and honestly, a Dr would know best. If he's shy to see a Dr, just keep the part extremely clean for a week. It goes away, then you know your cause. If it doesn't, then see a Dr!
