Re: Can HPV/ Genital Warts develop between two clean individuals?
Hi Heather, thank you for the reply :) This makes sense about the origin of manifestation, so thank you! That's why I didn't really understand why his doctor is still saying that HPV is something that can just happen out of nowhere and "slip through the cracks" of health... idk. As an upda...

Re: Can HPV/ Genital Warts develop between two clean individuals?
Hi Siân, thank you so much for this reply! I tried editing my original post after writing "clean" because I realized that language such as this is negative and perpetuates unfair stereotypes, but I couldn't locate the edit button :( I'm sorry for my incorrect use of language/ignorance, I s...

Can HPV/ Genital Warts develop between two clean individuals?
Hi all, hope everyone is doing well during these crazy times. My boyfriend developed a red-ish bump below the head of his penis, on his shaft two weeks ago. It's gone down a bit, but it is still there. It is a red lump that almost blends into the skin if that makes any sense, sort of like how a zit/...

Re: Oral Sex and Herpes
Wow, Heather. Thank you SO much for all of these resources. I think that it's so important what you said about intimacy - sometimes I just forget that it's really about our emotions and the way we feel; not physical proximity. Thank you so much for that. Also, I didn't mean to contribute to the unfa...

Re: Oral Sex and Herpes
That's a good point, thank you. We're planning on getting married soon, which is why I mentioned our future together since I really don't see us ever breaking up, but that makes sense. I know that we could just not use oral sex, but sometimes it feels extremely intimate, and to have a barrier feels ...

Oral Sex and Herpes
Hi there, my boyfriend and I of many years are sexually active, but use condoms for penetrative sex (I am also on birth control). We are both clean and have only been each other’s partners. My boyfriend used to get cold sores often when he was younger - it’s been quite a few years since he’s had an ...

Re: Placebo Pill Question?
Hi! Sorry to be away, I did not realize I got a reply! Yes, I would like to know about the Implant :) I was wondering if most women typically lose their periods on it? That scares me, only because I've heard it isn't good to just stop getting your period due to hormones, as you might not know if the...

Placebo Pill Question?
Hi there! I am on a Tri Cyclen 28 day pill pack. My last week of pills are just placebos, or as my package calls them, "reminders." I usually don't take the placebo pills this week, not to start a new pack and skip my bleed, but just to give myself a break from taking pills. (honestly I am...

Birth Control Questions! :)
Hi! I am on Ortho Tricyclen 28. I just have a couple of general questions regarding the pill that I could not find online (since they're pretty specific, and albeit, maybe a little silly to ask haha :p) First off, I generally take it between 9:30am to 11am. I am pretty sure that taking it 12 hours i...

Feeling shamed
To begin, I grew up in a Catholic family that doesn't follow the Bible to heart (or even go to church, for that matter) but for some reason, they really hold precedence in the "no premarital sex" part. Last year, right before I turned 20, I lost my virginity to my loving boyfriend of six y...
