Is HPV a STD?
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 a 24-year-old woman dealing with some issues that are really worrying me. I've been in a stable relationship for quite a while and have been sexually active for about six years. Usually, everything's okay after sex, but sometimes, two days later, I get really painful vaginal discomfort. It's not all the time, but it's been happening more often. Also, my periods last for about 12 days, which feels longer than usual, and I've been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. I've been on homeopathic treatment for six months. About ten days ago, I had intercourse and have been in severe pain ever since. It's been lingering for the past eight days, and I'm really struggling. What do you suggest I do at this point? It's becoming really tough to handle.
I'm sorry to hear about your pain. Persistent vaginal pain after sex could indicate an infection, irritation, or underlying issue like PCOS-related hormonal changes. Please consult a gynecologist promptly for an evaluation, as timely care is essential for your comfort and health.

My friend recently found out they have genital herpes, and I'm really worried. Is this something that's common? The doctor mentioned there's no treatment, but my friend doesn't feel any pain or discomfort. Is there any way to manage this situation or help them?
