I'm scared. Please help me ... hiv/std/herpes ??

2 Replies

Hi everyone, I'm new here.

I'm female and a virgin. Never have sex before, the only sexual stuff I ever done is masturbate which I did it alone. I only play on clit area. Never put anything in my vagina. But a few years back then I used item but only for rubbing and not putting it inside. (I just realised I never clean that thing before used it. I'm just a stupid teenager with no sex ed knowledge)

Last Nov 2020, I was diagnosed with Uti. Then on mid Dec, I realised there's a lump on my mid pelvic area. The lump is not hard and not changing. I thought it might be swollen lymph nodes and I got no other symptoms.

And 2 days ago there's a rash that suddenly appear on my arm. No itchy/no pain. Only one rash (it probably lesion). I'm scared the rash might develop more since hiv rash can appear for more than 4 week.

Is there possibility I might develop hiv/STD/herpes or any other disease just from masturbate ?

And it's been 2 years since I stop touching myself. Please help. I'm scared ...

Hi , That mark is not a rash or any form of STI infection , in fact it is nothing at all and will most likely be healed up by the time you read this ! The only way you could possibly catch an STI through mastabation would be by using a sex toy . such as a vibrator , that had previously been used by an infected person without cleaning it first . The HIV virus can not live outside the human body for any length of time so it is virtually impossible to catch HIV in this way .

It is very very unlikely you have an STI .
