I had back surgery in 2007 and 2008, a hysterectomy in 1980, and a fractured pelvis in 2022. I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and have experienced a significant decline in my sex drive. Given my health history and age, is this decline in sex drive expected, and is there anything I can do to regain it?

I had sex with a stranger who is a US Navy soldier. He used a condom during anal sex, but we engaged in oral sex without protection. I did not ingest his semen. What is the risk of contracting diseases from this encounter?

I just wanted to thank you. You are a very nice person and I'm just really upset with myself. I don't even know why I did such a stupid thing. There goes my 13-year psych job and I've never even been written up. But thank you, Dr. Chip, I appreciate your help. Have a good day.

I had two HIV tests, one after 6 months and another after 9 months, both of which were negative. Should I still worry or wait until a year?
