Seroconversion symptoms typically happen within 2 weeks to one month after exposure. Some sources say later, but in my research and time doing HIV outreach, I have found the 2 month mark to be very late. However, as others have noted, not everyone gets symptoms. In my time in outreach I have found that the one that is most common is unexplained night sweats. Even people that seem to not have many other symptoms seem to get the night sweats. As JackEDJIZZ said, night sweats happen, and while you might mistake it for something else and minor at first, its a very common sign your body is trying to fight some infection. Even minor things can cause night sweats, so people may be converting and have no clue. Also worth noting is that the chance of HIV infection, at its highest for regular receptive anal intercourse is 3%. So just because you took a poz load, even very detectable doesn't mean you are going to become HIV+

HAHA! I hooked up with an an 18 year old guy once who I actually asked for ID from before we did anything. 😂 As for getting what you want out of him, You know sex, he doesn't. Take the wheel, make him feel comfortable, and amazing and I'm sure you will get what you want.

Interesting. but also its not worth waiting if the OP doesnt need too.

Time until tests show other STIs than HIV
wood replied to kalyne's topic in HIV/AIDS & Sexual Health Issues
Only you can really judge that. You may or may not need in between tests. It also depends on what your definition of a wild night is. For some guys that could be 3 guys for some that could be 30+ -
Time until tests show other STIs than HIV
wood replied to kalyne's topic in HIV/AIDS & Sexual Health Issues
Bacterial STI's except syphilis, will generally show up on tests or give symptoms within a week. Syphilis can take longer as its gets into the blood stream, but it can vary widely from a week to months. With that said, if you picked up say Gonorrhea and Chlamydia, early stage Syphilis will also often be cured by its treatment. HCV is like HIV and will be about 6 weeks. If you're on Prep I wouldn't worry too much unless you have symptoms and just make sure you get a full panel done at your next Prep check which should always be within 3 months. -
Not sure about your point, but metro areas are always going to be more Democratic and have high infection rates. The south however statewide is more Republican, and overall has even higher rates, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, having the highest.

Really only you can answer this. Heres your main factors. Whats your diet like? If you eat like crap, and it takes forever to wipe, then its going to take forever to clean out, even if you are just going a little bit in, because your poop is going to be constantly entering your rectum. Changing to a high fiber diet and metamucial can help this ALOT. How long do you want to get fucked If you are going to go to a sex party and want to get fucked for 8+ hours and go deep to get it all out, or fast for 24hrs before. Even then you will find some stuff unless you just drink water. How big are they. I know a few guys that get well into the second hole. That means they are in your intestines, not your rectum. The "second hole" is kind of the barrier that keeps fecal matter above the rectum until it needs to go down. A Large long guy will go beyond that, and open it up for fecal matter to go down into your rectum. This requires a deeper flush like mentioned above. To answer your main questions, if you have a shower hose which works the best, use very low pressure, and keep it in there a while. Once your rectum is full of water, you will temporarily feel an uncomfortable pressure, then it will go away. This is the water going past the second hole. At this point, you can keep going until the pressure feels uncomfortable again. HOWEVER! Dont over do it! it should never be painful. Just feeling slightly uncomfortable and very full. At this point you can take the hose out, and let out all you can. Keep in mind, when you do this, there is still ALOT of water in you. you may need to stop for a bit, wait, walk around, etc until you feel the very sudden urge to go and then you better be at a toilet. This may happen again after. After that, repeat the process until clear As for waiting I prefer to wait about two hours after at least. you can get sore from it, and may have residual water come out, and its easier just to be done early.

I dont know who is surprised by this..... Look at where infections are occurring, its either large metro areas which is understandable or areas with crap access to healthcare.
-
Its nothing like snot, and HIV is indeed very much in precum, and there are many people that have become infected without the guy actually cumming inside. HIV isn't present in Saliva, Tears, or basic mucous. IT CANT TRANSMIT ANYTHING. Blood, Semen (including precum), vaginal and rectal secretions, and breast milk DO contain HIV, and it is possible to pass it on that way. This is why HIV+ mothers who give birth to an HIV- baby are told not to breast feed.

Nausea is a somewhat common side effect of Truvada (Emtricitabine+Tenofovir) so it wouldn't be unheard of to have something like that occur. As for illegality, I don't think the medication itself is illegal anywhere in the world, so I cant see how possession would be illegal. This isn't something like amphetamines or opiates, there is no abuse potential for truvada, so I don't think many would care. Also sometimes Nausea can be naturally helped by things like diet, sleep, and exercise changes. As for going off of it, sure, but also make sure you change your sexual practices. I had two friends stop Prep for a couple months, one because he thought he didn't need it, and another because he was changing insurance, and both became HIV+ because they didn't change their sexual habits.
-
I did. It would have been a silly decision to stop and my partner and I have had a few partners together since then, so it makes sense that we both take it.

Do everything you can to get it treated ASAP. Some guys will clear it on its own, but that's somewhat rare. Treatment is relatively easy now, if expensive. However HEP C causes irreparable damage the longer you have it, and can cause issues years down the line such as liver failure or liver cancer. Lastly, as hard as it may be, I would try and refrain from sex for a while until you get treated or clear it. While people today don't really have issues with HIV, HEP-C is another matter. Look at BBRT, even guys who say they are poz or undetectable, they will say, HEP-C Neg and looking for the same. Its really a matter of respect for other pigs who want to do piggy behavior, but may not have the means to treat a disease like HEP-C. HIV treatment programs are widespread and often little to no cost, but HEP-C treatment even in countries with universal healthcare may make you wait for treatment. On the topic of HIV, if you are HIV+ get and stay on treatment if you are not already. HIV and HEP-C are a really bad combo, and can and will wreck your body quick without treatment. Now someone said you are in the UK and it seems like the NHS is taking HEP-C very seriously, so treatment should be relatively easy to get. Good luck! On a side note, This is why I try and limit certain sexual activities. For example, as much as I would love to pig out at Folsom Berlin, I would go but probably hold back at least somewhat. Not to quote this site, but those events are literally "Breeding zones" for HEP-C.

FOR SURE. Heres some of the biggest differences I have felt. Inside smoothness. - Lets face it, many guys who get fucked a lot may have some internal warts, hemorrhoids, scar tissue, etc that may feel different. Also is the guy dry inside, or does he have loads in him already? There are lots of variables. Hole location, and curvature. - Again this varies by the guy, but some guys I have fucked feel like once you get in their hole it almost makes an immediate 90 degree turn, where with other guys its straight in. On the hole location, even if its an inch or less going towards the front or back, that makes position feel very different Hole Hair. - I personally prefer a smoother hole, but I can like some hair. Where I think an ass can feel very different is if there is a lot of hair. With some guys I personally feel like the hair can almost feel like sandpaper on the shaft. Sphincter strength. - Some guys are either just too loose, or just too tight. Either that or they just don't know how to control it. For me i like it right in the middle. Don't choke my dick with your hole and make me loose my wood, but also don't be so loose I cant feel anything. One final one, that is obvious, but a guys overall size also makes a huge difference. I have an above average dick but not huge, but on average with smaller guys, like up to 5'7" I can get in their second hole which feels amazing. Taller guys I usually cant, but I have got their with guys up to 6'

Guys in the US, anybody using Dynamix or Green Cross for PrEP?
wood replied to wildbottom's topic in PrEP Discussion
I’d do it. Now, you still MUST make sure you’re HIV- before starting, and get regular blood work. Because of global HIV outreach there are many genarics available outside the US, and in the US truvada will go generic in 2020. However if you are fucking raw now. I’d say a few months of genarics are a good idea. I haven’t used either company but I’ve ordered drugs from India before and never had a problem -

wood replied to wildbottom's topic in PrEP Discussion
Do you have a link for both sites? Googling both green cross and dynamix gives tons of results. Also even with high income you may want to talk to gileads copayment assistance team. Even with high income, you essentially just need to say your expenses are also very high -
Would if asked take a quick HIV test before have fun.

Where are you located? There are now online resources in the US where you can get it- 13 replies

I get sense, and when I first heard about it in the testing phase in 2011, I thought the same. However, study after study after study have proven this fears to have no justification. As for the "backfiring" comment, what else were people going to do to stop the spread of HIV!?! Condoms don't get used, people were not getting regular HIV tests, and people were continuing to get infected at pretty much the same rate for the past 20 years, despite treatments that made people unable to spread it. PrEP is LITERALLY the only thing that has slowed new infections. As for the general toxicity of the medication, Tenofovir and Emtricitabine (the two medications in truvada) have been out or in testing for over 20 years at this point, and have successfully been used in immunocompromised individuals who are almost always more susceptible to medication side effects. Tylenol has more side effects than Truvada... Really I think in some point you trust in science or you don't. Dont get me wrong there are plenty of times science has been wrong, but it literally always beats blind belief, prayer, fear, etc.

I dont know how long you have been married but your wife still deserves respect. PERIOD. If you want a divorce, that is perfectly fine, but if sex is the main thing dragging you two apart, you should think what life is like without sex, because it does happen. Its not easy, but amicable, and respectful separations can happen, and if you simply didn't realize you were gay when you got into the relationship IMO thats the way you should look at the situation. Also, if there are kids involved, please dont be selfish and think about their future as well. IMO you should start with being open with your wife that you may be gay, if thats uncomfortable do it with a therapist. But if she has been in your life for years, there is probsbly much more to you're relationship than you think.

Hahaha I have a friend who loves collecting loads and he’s joked before that if he ever burned up in a fire a DNA test wouldn’t work on him.... 😂

Any guys had any 'bumps in the road'?
wood replied to anonfuck28's topic in HIV/AIDS & Sexual Health Issues
A good friend of mine has been poz, mostly undetectable for over 20 years now. And he’s had no complications. However, in general he takes good care of himself, with good amounts of exercise, sleep, and limits drugs, alcohol and he doesn’t smoke. In that regard I think that a persons general health poz or not has way more to do with how they treat their body. I know straight people who aren’t poz that had heart attacks in their 30’s. Sure being poz can complicate your health, but assuming you are taking your meds, and staying undetectable, I doubt there is much of a statistical variance in health vs the general population -
Not surprising. 15 Years ago or so I had a false positive when I was dating my undetectable bf. Scared the shit out of me, but the follow up came back neg. tests, especially antibody tests are far from perfect and many things can throw them off. It’s tonight not to get worried in those situations but you got to keep looking forward. Ive been on prep since 2012, and frankly don’t even think about my tests anymore. If I have to get treated for something bacterial I do, but otherwise I know the result of the HIV test.
-
This is mostly my opinion. I’m in my mid 30’s, quite attractive, swimmers body, and I’ve had guys say “what are you gonna do for me” and I say, nothing. I get what I want without paying. Often they come back and give it out without monetary transactions.

Is my CD4 count too high?
wood replied to VersatileBreeder's topic in HIV/AIDS & Sexual Health Issues
Just as stated it’s likely the recent infection that got the number higher. But no don’t worry at all. That just means what you’re doing with meds and such is working. Doctors don’t even worry as much about lower CD4 counts now as long as the person doesn’t seem to have any other problems. I have two undetectable friends with CD4 counts in the 300’s but are perfectly fine, and their doctors said that just might me the way their body is, HIV or not. -
Herpes is a non-issue. Most sexually active gay men have Herpes simplex 1&2. It was originally termed oral (1) and genital (2) but it’s now known that either variant can affect either area. With herpes it’s important to remember that it’s estimated that around 80%+ of people that have it never had an outbreak. And there are cheap medications available to treat possible outbreaks. Hep C on the other hand is no joke. While Transmission was always thought to be only blood borne before, sexual transmission is now known to be possible. Some easy things to do to reduce transmission risk is to always use good lube. Lube reduces friction and micro tears in either the penis or ass, that can increase the risk of infection. If you are HIV-, staying HIV- has also been proven to help, even when compared to HIV+ undetectable persons. Hep C is treatable but many insurance companies won’t treat it for a while to see if your body clears it first. Also if you get reinfected many won’t treat it a second time.

I think you are going to need to give us more info to help you out, IE, your home country, where in the USA are you studying, etc. In the US, accessibility to treatment can vary by state. Seeking asylum just for HIV may be difficult unless you can prove your home country does little to nothing to help you out. But more info will be helpful. As for added “toxic ingredients” it’s helps to stick to facts here, and unless you have something to back that up, it’s hard to recognize it.
