Is HPV a STD?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Yes, you can get HPV by having vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who has the virus. HPV can be passed even when an infected person has no signs or symptoms. You also can develop symptoms years after you have sex with someone who is infected. This makes it hard to know when you first became infected.

I'm feeling some pain after fingering my vagina yesterday. Now it hurts when I walk or when I pee, and there's this dull pain in my lower abdomen. Could you suggest any tablets or remedies to help ease this pain?

It sounds like you might be experiencing irritation or inflammation, which can occur after vigorous activity. I recommend seeing a doctor to rule out any infection or injury, but in the meantime, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen (if you're not allergic) may help reduce the discomfort. Drink plenty of water, and avoid any further irritation.

I'm a bit worried because my last menstrual period started on October 21st. On October 28th, my partner and I didn't have actual intercourse, just some rubbing of my vagina over his penis, and he's sure he didnt ejaculate. Just to be safe, I took the ipill on October 30th within 48 hours. Now, Ive been experiencing spotting since November 4th. It started with a few drops, then got heavier and red on the 5th, became even more on the 6th but was brown, and today, November 7th, the bleeding is red. Does this mean there's no chance of pregnancy?

Yes no need to worry you are not pregnant
