hello

i've having sex with my boyfriend for two months now and I'm certain he is faithful to me. We've always used condoms and I'm on the pill. This week though, we've tried without condoms just 2 times and he never ejaculated on me. I take the pill religiously so I'm not worried about pregnancy. But after a few days I've started worrying about STIs. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have them, still I've made an appointment to get tested. Do I have reasons to be worried? I'm pretty sure I'm just being paranoid. Could you give me some advice? thanks

Hi Golfinho,

Has he told you his testing history? If not, then you two need to have that conversation now, and if he hasn't been tested he needs to do so along with you. And it goes without saying that you two need to use condoms until you both know your status (and, ideally, afterwards).
