POST SEX SYNDROME- PART 2.

2. The STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) Scare.
       
         Now this is the one thing that should make you consider your sexual activity. This scare is more serious than the first because the chances of it being a false alarm is quite rare, and there is really no chance for you to play the waiting game like you did in the pregnancy scare.




so first off, allow me to introduce the cardinal signs of STD..

1) you have a burning sensation when you urinate (pee).

2) you have an unusual discharge.

3) you have any types of unusual growths or lesions, whether they hurt or not.

4) you have an unusual odor or itching in the genital area.

5) you have had sex with a person known to have (or suspected or having) an STD, even if you do not have any symptoms yourself.

6) you have put yourself at risk for HIV or any other STD.

7) you have any symptoms that are not going away, or are very severe. 


Now that we are acquainted with these signs, we may now proceed to the features of an STD scare:
  • The onset of one or more of the above signs- the most noticeable is the itching or the burning, depending on the kind of infection. for itching, you may think its probably a reaction to something..maybe the change of soap or the pant liners, or it could be the heat caused by tight boxers..for the burning sensation; you may probably think you scratched yourself too hard or something..so you think..all these will go soon after i rub on some Funbact-A, or down some Alomo bitters! please note that if its just a reaction issue, then you only get to experience this stage of the scare. should i say Congrats?!

  • Still there-  C'mon now! what's going on? still feeling the signs and they are getting worse. hmmm.. don't think i wanna see the family doctor, he'l probably think i'm dirty or something.. whatever it is, it's still running its course..it'll subside soon..

  • Questions-  Where did this come from now? i haven't slept with any one apart from him/her.. where the hell did he/she get it from? should i tell him/her about it and ask him what's been going on with him down there? and many more...( questions to be answered in the next article).

  • Google- OK search for 'itching after sex'..let me try 'Sexually Transmitted Diseases'..just curious, i'l check 'HIV-AIDS'..naaa!! that's going too far..right?..now trust me on this one, 1 person can possess a thousand diseases on search engine! LOLL!

  • Self medication- OK Google recommended some antibiotics to use and some home remedies..drink plenty water, use ointments, take drugs..all done! good, this should do.

  • Acceptance- OMGG!! it really hurts! its just getting worse! this time, you find yourself in the doctor's office ( don't care about any embarrassment  its your future on the line!). the doctor tests you and gives you medications, which you use with all power and might..the doctor says there is a chance of recurrence, so you propose in your heart..'its all about 100% safety this time around' ( are you really sure about that?).




still to come...true STD story alert, self medication, STD answers to questions, explanation to the itch reaction, and more..

POST SEX SYNDROME (PSS).

There is nothing more humiliating than being afflicted with a PSS! It clings to the mind like a leach and leaves you wondering in the end, if it was all worth it..in this article, i have divided PSS into 2 groups, each with their unique syndrome. By the way, a syndrome is simply a combo of symptoms. so..here goes..

  1. The Pregnancy Scare.
:

Arghhhh!! this is the worst feeling in the world! After enjoying some sweet 10-20 mins of passionate sex, you then get to enjoy some bitter weeks of panic, and you wanna know the painful part? the sex might have been crap! lol! Please note that its only called the pregnancy scare for those who think they played it safe, either by right calculation or by use of protection..so if you know you didn't play safe, not to worry! its not a scare, its most likely reality! so these are the awful feelings-
  • Morning Sickness: you just got out of bed and felt really nauseous and tired. and you ask yourself, what is wrong? and then it crosses your mind for a sec..could it be..naa!..i'm probably over reacting..
  • Hunger and Cravings: you start eating a lot at breakfast, and start craving certain things as the day stretches..and you think, omg! whats happening to me? breathe girl! it cant be possible..right?
  • Breast Tenderness: OMGGG!! something isn't right..its just 2 weeks before my next period! and you think again..need to get some strips!
  • Night Fever: You start feeling feverish and you think your running a temperature. you check your temperature ( well i have a thermometer) and its perfectly normal!..but another time, you might actually  be having a low grade fever!( trust me, its your mind causing the fever)..your heart starts to pick up speed now.
  • Pseudo Missed Period: O shitt! your period is due..your heart is well on its way to win the race trophy..you pee on the strips several times and its negative. phew! not pregnant..1-2 weeks past your due date..Oh God plsss!!!  i'm finished, its over, i'm dead,..and blah blah..
Then it turns out, before you go for a blood test, the period starts! life goes back to normal, you have sex again, and the cycle of PSS continues..so there is this issue of the girl not wanting to transfer the pregnancy scare to her spouse..something about not wanting to get him worried..*rolling eyes*. well if you ask me, i'l tell him every time i get those damn feelings, and this is how i'l tell him; 
" hi baby, umm..really dont know whats going on with me..i'm really scared. been feeling really sick, and i think i'v missed my period..gonna get me some test strips at the pharmacy, will call you soon..luv u!"  LOL!!
To Be Continued....

HCG WEIGHT LOSS DIET PLANNNN???!!!


TRUE STORY ALERT!!
ok so a lady walks into my hospital yeah, weeping uncontrollably while clutching her tummy and my arm in serious pain. Believe me when i say my arm ached me for about an hour! she had lower abdominal pain and in her own words, felt she was being stabbed with a knife. After taking her history the doctor decided to have her do a pregnancy test, and that's when she struck me..she said 'oh i'm definitely not pregnant but if you do the test it might come out positive . Huhhh?! it turned out, shes been taking HCG drops as some kind of diet plan, and that ruffled her up really bad..She's ok now though, but i'm not ok till i share my own view about this diet thing..


Simply put, HCG is an hormone that develops at the onset of pregnancy. the promoters of this diet claim that the hormone suppresses hunger and improves metabolism, but correct me if i'm wrong.. isn't it the pregnant women that have indigestion and food-craving issues? (not to mention those annoying mood swings and spiked emotions). Now, the diet also involves a strict 500 cals a day menu of organic unprocessed food! please lets think about this for a minute max.. isn't 500 cals a day ( 1500-2000 lesser than the recommended daily cal intake) enough to shed a huge chunk of fat in 1 week?! so please tell me where this HCG comes from. I mean why can't one just be on a 500 cal a day diet and end it? its bad enough to be messing up with your body with such low amount of calories, but to be toying with your reproductive system..its beyond comprehension! go check it out yourself..despite all the researches, there has been no scientific proof, and it's not even FDA approved! personally its just plain illegal, and the promoters of this diet are just preys on innocent, ignorant and desperate people.

UP NEXT-- 'lets talk about sex'..
