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've been going through something a bit strange lately and just wanted to ask for some advice. So, I've been feeling this odd sensation in my vagina for the last few days. Initially, it was really itchy and I thought it might be a rash, but there wasn't any. And I know I don't have any STIs, so I figured maybe I had a yeast infection because, honestly, my hygiene hasn't been top-notch recently. But now the itching has stopped, which is good, but it still feels like there's something in there. It doesn't hurt or burn, and there's no bad smell or weird discharge, which is a bit confusing. It's not really affecting my daily life, but I'm kind of curious and a little worried about what it might be. Could this still be a yeast infection or do you think it's something else?

I'm really worried about how my friend took the unwanted kit. On the first day, she vomited it out, and on the second day, she only managed to take one pill while spitting the other one out. Now, she's not sure if she should restart the course or just continue to the third day. Plus, there's been no bleeding so far. What should she do?

no problem u continue
