Avatar f tn Hello- I have recently gotten an hiv test which came back indeterminate. I am not a drug user and the last time I had unprotected (oral) sex was seven months ago. I have to wait to test again in a month. Four months ago I received my first shot of a series of three HPV vaccines. Three months ago, I received the following vaccine and I'm due to get the third vaccine in a few months. I also received a TB screen test about three weeks before the hiv test.
Avatar m tn t there a proper vaccine for AIDS yet ? In other words why dont we still have a scientifically proved Medication or a Therapy that could kill the virus inside the body or reverse the damage to the immune system ?
1530342 tn?1405016490 A vaccine is FAR more likely than a cure. For MOST viral infections, there is no cure, and with HIV, a retrovrius, it is unlikely. We still don't have a cure for the common cold, and influenza. A cure would be wonderful, but just think of all the other diseases out there with no cure, only treatments. The thing to be thankful for is how far we've come in the treatment for HIV/AIDS. MANY people are living completely normal life spans...
Avatar f tn Yeah as there is vaccine available for prevention of hepatitis b a same kind of medicine can be available in near future for preventing hiv.
Avatar n tn BANGKOK – For the first time, an experimental vaccine has prevented infection with the AIDS virus, a watershed event in the deadly epidemic and a surprising result. Recent failures led many scientists to think such a vaccine might never be possible. The World Health Organization and the U.N. agency UNAIDS said the results "instilled new hope" in the field of HIV vaccine research.
Avatar n tn I am not gay, but this is alarming. Some people on this site feel that it is very hard to get HIV/AIDS, but I think this is an eye opener. I would like to see what the experts have to say? A new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that tested over 8,000 people in 21 cities, found that one in FIVE gay men in the United States has HIV, and almost half of those who carry the virus are unaware that they are infected.

Avatar n tn Vaccine Campaigns May Be The Cause of New AIDS-Like Disease in Asia and Drug Resistant HIV Affecting Africa Researchers have identified mysterious new symptoms that have left scores of people in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa with an AIDS-like disease and drug-resistant HIV respectively. Coincidentally, vaccine trials took place in several regions in both continents. The patients' immune systems become damaged, leaving them unable to fend off germs as healthy people do.
Avatar f tn Hello. As a mother myself, I would want my daughter to use birth control AND condoms -one for disease prevention, and the other for pregnancy protection. If you don't have an open relationship with your Mom, and are not able to tell her why you need birth control, you can contact the Planned Parenthood in your area. Believe me, an ounce of prevention is better than an unplanned pregnancy or getting a disease that could affect you for the rest of your life. Please try to talk to your Mom.
Avatar m tn Hello Doctor, I was thinking of a new hiv/aids prevention method. It starts with if you cover the externel urethrtal orifice, with some sort of lets say duct tape. Will it help prevent the spreading of HIV. I was wondering since it is the only way vaginal fluid, or any type of bodily fluid could enter via oral, anal sex. Thus being covered, there isn't a way for the virus to enter nor leave. Your answer will be greatly appreciated and respected. Thank you for your time.
Avatar f tn We do recommend HPV vaccination for men with multiple partners such as yourself. The reason the the "official" recommendation is for persons under 27 to get the vaccine has to do with cost effectiveness considerations rather than the effectiveness of the vaccine. Your circumstance places you at risk for HPV and thus if it is available, I would recommend it.

Avatar m tn There is also a Heavy Duty Vaccine (Genes) in the pipeline as well. We also need to Focus Prevention Methods on the hardest hit the Gay community. We need to have a Aggressive safe sex promotion and Widespread HIV TESTING.
Avatar n tn You could also talk to your doctor about getting the HPV vaccine. Its currently FDA approved for women only, but many men have gotten it from their doctors. You would probably have to pay for it yourself, and its usually about $100-150 per shot, and there are 3 shots over a period of time. How long has it been since she's seen her doc? Is she getting visible warts, or abnormal paps? How long has it been since either of those happened? You should check out hpv forum out.
