Can I have sex with my partner after taking doxycycline for chlamydia and testing negative?

Patient's Query

I took doxycycline for chlamydia for 7 days am I clear to have intercourse with my partner again? I retested and I’m negative.

Answered by Dr. Himali Patel

If you have finished a full course of doxycycline for chlamydia and a negative result on testing for the infection, it is generally safe to have sexual intercourse again. You should go see a gynecologist or a urologist for a comprehensive approach and recommendation on safe sexual activity.

Can penile agenesis be prevented in pregnancy Am a first time mum I was diagnosed with polihydroaminios but gave birth to a dwarf baby with penile agenesis who died becoz of the force labour but iam still affected mentally I need help

Female | 26

Its a rare congenital condition that occurs during fetal development. Generally most congenital abnormalities including penile agenesis are not preventable. They can result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and developmental factors that are often beyond our control.
It is also important to seek emotional support and counseling to address the feelings and challenges you may be experiencing.

I am 24 years old my last period was on 25 April and after that on 3rd june I got brown discharge for two days , am I pregnant?

Female | 24

There are many different reasons why someone may experience brown discharge after their period. It is not necessarily an indication of pregnancy. It could be caused by hormonal changes, stress, or irregularities in the menstrual cycle. Feeling tired all the time, nausea, or tenderness in your breasts can be signs and symptoms that suggest you might be pregnant. To be sure, take a home pregnancy test.

I am a female i had unprotected sex on the 27th October and got my period the next day which lasted for 3 days but then few days later i started having mild cramps on my middle stomach and sides and i took 2 birth control pills a few days later i had ovulation after from which i am experiencing frequent urination, head aches, stomach pains that come and go, as well as some constipation problems, i also started to eat a lot now. i did take a test which was negative on the 8th day after my period ended

Female | 18

It's unlikely you're PREGNANT.... Mild cramps normal after sex. BIRTH CONTROL pills affect hormones. It's normal to have symptoms after ovulation. Stress can cause constipation and headaches. Negative test may be too early. Keep an eye on symptoms..

My husband has cystic fibrosis can i get pregnant?

Male | 32

Many men with cystic fibrosis have fertility issues due to blocked or absent vas deferens. However, with assisted reproductive technologies like IVF, it's possible for couples to conceive. Discuss options with a fertility specialist.

I am a 24 year old female with no known health defects that I know of. Occasionally I suffer from a severe lower stomach cramp followed by severe constipation, followed by severe nausea (with throw up). One of these episodes lead me to faint. This normally happens when I'm on my period, and sometimes they don't. I am roughly 165 LBS and I'm 5'3. My diet isn't the best but it's not too shitty.

Female | 24

You look like you might be afflicted with a serious case of menstrual cycle cramps that can, in some cases, lead to constipation and nausea. Stress, as well as physical pain, can lead to a fainting spell. This pain, as well as stress, can't be relieved by following these symptoms. The symptoms can be reduced by keeping your body hydrated, eating food high in fiber, and using pain relievers similar to ibuprofen. What you want to do on your end is to get a proper consultation with the gynecologist to learn about alternative reasons and treatments.

My hymen is still not completely broken. Once I saw few drops of blood . But still the hymen is strong there. I had intercourse not a proper one and penis didn't enter into my vagina. But the sperms fell on my vagina and we still did 3 ,4 pushes. Will I be pregnant .

Female | 23

Eve­n if complete insertion didn't occur, pre­gnancy remains a possibility since sperm can still re­ach the egg. Immediate­ symptoms might not manifest, but missed periods or bre­ast tenderness could be­ early indicators. Taking a pregnancy test provide­s confirmation. It's important to understand that an intact hymen doesn't pre­clude pregnancy.

Hi, I suspect that I'm pregnant because the last time I had my period was in August and surprisingly I had my period yesterday and today after intercourse clots are coming out... What's happening with me

Female | 31

According to your symptoms, you might be having a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. I urge you to make an appointment with a gynecologist right away as these conditions require immediate medical assistance. A gynecologist will diagnose and treat you correctly.

I visited a dentist today. It was just a normal checkup. No surgery or any other procedure. The doctor used her magnifying glass instrument to check my oral region and then used a suction pull. Nothing else was used. This process lasted for 3-4 minutes. I have fear that what if the instrument was not cleaned properly and then used on me. Can I get HIV, Hepatitis, Herpes or HPV from it. Also I have health anxiety

Male | 19

The possibility of catching HIV, He­patitis, Herpes or HPV from ordinary dental visits is low be­cause dentists rigorously maintain sanitation protocols. Nonethe­less, if there's any discomfort or worry, it'll be­ beneficial to fix a mee­ting with your regular doctor for some blood test or have a consultation with a spe­cialist in infectious diseases.
