Sexual Health IssuesIf you need medical advice regarding your sexual health, ask Dr Tan. We are honored to have an In House Doctor who is here to help.
chill bro, if im not wrong, those massage places require the masseuse to do regular checkup like geylang, so hiv risk might be lower, unless she also did raw regularly.
risks will always present even though u only have sex with ur gf, u wont know for sure if ur gf sleep ard or not.
Hmm those masseuse looks more like illegal shop leh. You think they got go do health check up?
Thank you for that. There is also the reason that AFA gets funding and donations so they can subsidize their testing.
What is more important is finding someone who is trained and familiar with HIV testing to do the test for you.
Tell you a scary story. In my clinics, we have seen MANY cases of patients who got tested at other Anonymous HIV testing clinics (NOT AFA. I will not mention which clinics for ethical reasons). Because the doctor doing the test for them was inexperienced (likely a locum doctor), the doctor added too much blood and/or chase buffer causing the test to turn out FALSE POSITIVE. To make matters worse, they recommended the patients take ANOTHER COMBO TEST instead of sending blood for Western Blot like they should have. This costs the patients ANOTHER $150 when the Western Blot is FREE!! Of course the doctor then screwed up the second Combo test making appear false positive again!
These patients then come to see me literally shitting bricks and when we did the test for them, it was CLEARLY NEGATIVE.
So they wasted money and more importantly went through a period of extreme stress all because the doctor who did the HIV test for them did not know what he/she was doing.
In the past few weeks alone we already saw 3 of such cases from 2 different clinics. In the past years we have seen many many much more.
So please be cautious. When you go to an Anonymous HIV testing clinic, perhaps you want to ask the counter staff if the doctor in attendance is the regular doctor or a part-time locum doctor. Or you can ask them if the doctor in attendance is experienced in doing HIV tests. Or if you see the doctor fumbling around and not knowing what is where, you may want to query the results. Honestly, I don't know what is the best way to ensure the doctor is doing the test right.
As you can see this irks me quite a bit. It already takes a lot of courage for a patient to see a doctor for HIV testing. Doctors should be professional and responsible enough to do it right.
Hi DoctorTan,
I totally understand what you are saying. Now I understand.
It is said that these massage parlor girls have to go for health check up is that correct? Just like the one at Parklane in Doby Ghaut?
logically speaking, i dont think they need to cos their business are registered as massage parlours. perhaps for the usual preemployment health checks. if they clear it, they can work. not sure if these checks include std and hiv? if they don't then...
for std hiv checks, i seriously doubt so unless they go for test themselves on a regular basis. would you as the employer offer to pay for the check for the staff knowing the business is registered as offering massage services only?

mate, how do we know what's going on?
are there any other symptoms like lumps, redness, smelly??
anyway, go see a GP, there are many causes for itch to happen around the groin area
could be due to fungal infection, molluscum contagiosum, dry skin etc....
look like your month long wait is going to be a very long one for you..

As a matter of fact, I have jock itch issues and apparently it turned bad recently but I am not sure if they are link to any STD? I only have itch and nothing else. I am at Day 7 after exposure.

stress can cause rashes bro, stop thinking abt it and it shall cure.
GP usually just give u antihistamine or steroid which help u to sleep, but it wont cure the rash, ur body will cure it slowly
Hey I know you guys going to flame me for being stupid. I was really in a bad mood and I went to my usual massage parlor to have a happy ending. Usually I will wear protection and I will always get the same girl. I always tease her saying I can I don't wear condom and she will always say no. But just yesterday, I offered her the same deal and she said yes to me. So yeah we did it.
She kept asking me questions like if I do health check up and stuff then she also keep checking on me to see if I have any disease on me like you know looking at my little bro to see if there's any shit on it. She also went on to clean it really well before we have an intercourse.
Frankly speaking I was hesitating at that moment on whether if I should do it but I was thinking she could be clean as well so yeah on a moment of folly I did it.
And now I fucking regret and I don't know what to do.
Can you guys help me out here?
I know I will be flame but being stupid and I god dam admit it I was dam dumb. If I come out of this safely I swear I will never go to this kind of place again.
pls let me know the location and name of the girl
i will perform a smell and lick to check if she has any hiv or std
unfortunately i cant offer the same test to you, so pls go DSC and check urself
