I have been dealing with a recurring yeast infection for 1.5 months. It was initially treated with Diflucan 150mg, which cleared it up but it returned two weeks later. My GP then prescribed Clortrimazole Topical 1% anti-fungal cream, which I have been using for two weeks without success. I still experience redness and irritation under my foreskin and on my scrotum. What could be causing this and what further steps should I take?

I am feeling extremely anxious about getting HIV tested. I have no reason to believe I have HIV, as I have only had two partners, one 2 years ago and my current partner who has been with me for almost a year. I have shown no symptoms, but I sometimes wake up with a sore throat that goes away throughout the day. I am planning to get tested at my gynecologist appointment, but the anxiety is overwhelming. Would I know by now if I had HIV? Should I be worried about a negative test result? What do HIV lesions look like?

Are you currently using any other medications? Is there anything else in your medical history the doctor should know?
