Avatar n tn I am an HIV + male. 43 on truvada/ efavirenz for 2 year with a count of minus 20(undetectable). I was penetrated twice last week where the condom broke and was NOT replaced. The "top" partner is aware of my hiv status. What are the chances of infection for him and apart from testing what should be done? I am otherwise very healthy, no cuts, blood or aparent bruising was detected. I am freaking out for him.
Avatar f tn My doctor recently put me on a combination of drugs for PEP, the drugs are lamzid and efavirenz and have very serious side effects. My exposure was licking/sucking a nipple of a non-pregnant HIV positive person. No milk came or blood came out but just had an after taste in my mouth. The act was for 2-3 seconds. What are my chances of getting HIV and are the reported cases of infection in adults, cause I know with babies you can.
Avatar m tn Dr, I was very very drunk and ended up doing mutual oral with three transexuals at a party in brazil.... I swallowed partial semen of all, then ran and washed out with soap in my mouth and drank and gaggle coca cola. There was no other risk, I did anal insertive with condom briefly. When sober up, totally freaked and got PEP, started 18 hours after. This happened 5 DAYS ago and been unable to close my eyes to sleep.

Avatar m tn m now under retro-viral treatment (Abacavir, 3TC Lamiduvina, and Efavirenz TM as known in my country), healthy, fit, high CD4 count, undetectable viral load. Recently, I met a person, we kissed and we practiced oral sex on each other. Eventhough I know my condition, and have always tried to avoid people practice fellation on me, he insisted and at the end I agreed. Now, I am really concerned about him. Could he have been infected? Should I tell him to test for HIV?
Avatar f tn Hi all, I have been on a combination of PEP drugs for the past week, the drugs are lamzid and efavirenz. 2 days after taking the drugs I started growing ulcers on my mouth (which has happened before) and I think one in my anus. Could this mean that I am HIV positive? I am very scared. My exposure was sucking a nipple of a woman for less than 2 seconds.
Avatar f tn Yesterday when I was having sex with a girl in massage parlour in bangkok, the condom was broken accidentally. I quickly clean my penis with soap and water and urinate afterward. I saw a doctor and receiving PEP course 3-4 hours after the exposure. My questions are 1. What are the risk of me getting infected? 2. Would there be any effect from my first PEP medication 3 months ago to my current medication? Would it reduce the effectiveness of the current medication. 3.
Avatar m tn 00 (10:00 PM). I always put 2 (two) condoms. 30-years practice. However, during sexual intercourse I noticed some stange feeling while I was inside her vagina - but continued 5 minutes until I ejaculated. Then I went out and was shocked to notice that BOTH my condoms broke (exploded; broken apart; good condoms - "Romed" from Holland, Europe). In girl's room was only cold water. I washed penis with shampoo and cold water.
Avatar f tn I am from India and I had a fingering exposure with a masseuse from Bangkok in a spa on delhi on 21st November 2017. I had a bit of a hangnail which was sore but I believe it wasn’t bleeding at the time of fingering. Anyway, I was scared and went to doctor for pep. I was given pep (efavirenz+ tenofovir + lamivudine) for 28 days after 48 hours. But I had it for 29 days instead. Now after 57 days I am having flu like symptoms. Runny nose and a bit of sore throat. No fever though.
Avatar m tn I am a 26 years healthy man, Two days back i had sex with sexworker in India, I used 2 condoms while having sex, unfortunately both condoms were teared off, within a minut i knew what happened.. I took off my penis immediately and washes under tap water. I asked sexworker weather she is HIV positive of not, she said she is not, but i cant trust her... then i decided to go for PEP, i took consultatio from one of professional doctors and started my treatment within 48 hrs of exposure..
Avatar m tn I engaged in protected vaginal intercourse with a CSW here in a spa in Malaysia. Unfortunately towards the end of the act, my condom broke - I must have had intercourse for about a minute or two before realising. Upon realisation, I immediately stopped intercourse and freaked out. Upon asking the CSW - she assured me that she's HIV negative and that she get's checked every six months in order to maintain employment. Needless to say I was exposed at low risk I understand.
Avatar n tn I have never had any unprotected sexual encounters with prostitutes in the past. I also donoted blood in the year 2010. My last unprotected sexual encounter was with my girlfriend who was a virgin in September 2012. I got very drunk 3 weeks back and called a prostitute. I had 4-5 strokes of unprotected sex (max 30 seconds ) . I then performed oral sex on her. She was clean. She didnt have any rashes or bleeding.
20922415 tn?1661860103 If pregnancy occurs, progesterone is produced in the placenta, and levels remain elevated throughout the pregnancy. The combination of high estrogen and progesterone levels suppresses further ovulation during pregnancy. Progesterone also encourages the growth of milk-producing glands in the breast during pregnancy. High progesterone levels are believed to be partly responsible for symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), such as breast tenderness, feeling bloated, and mood swings.
