Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is medication that people who are at risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) may take to prevent infection.
Genital herpes can spread through direct, unclothed, skin-to-skin contact, including oral, vaginal and anal sex.
Herpes sores blister, then burst, ooze, they may scab, and will then heal. Sores may be confused with acne, fungal infections, and ingrown hairs.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is short-term antiretroviral medication that may help prevent HIV infection if taken shortly after exposure.
Can you get HIV from casual contact, like hugging, touching, sharing drinks or kissing? How DO you get HIV?
Can I get HIV from surfaces, like toilet seats, doorknobs, shared drinks or pools? How long can HIV live outside the human body, or it's host?
The CDC recommends that everyone test at least once, and you should test more often if you have multiple sex partners or use needles for drug use.
The first signs of HIV, called Acute Retroviral Syndrome (ARS), may feel like the flu, with body aches and a fever. It can last a up to a few weeks.
Discharge may not be normal, and could mean an infection or an STD, especially with burning, pain, itching or urinary frequency.
Bumps in the genital area might be STDs, but are usually not serious. Treatment is usually for possible infection or to manage symptoms.
