Brief Answer:
Please see the detailed answer below.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Regarding your concern, I need more clarification like when you say made contact, do you mean simple contact or sexual contact (vaginal intercourse)?

If there was sexual contact with an unknown person, I suggest to take a 4th generation HIV test after 4 weeks of contact.

I hope my answer helps you. Feel free to ask further questions.

Brief Answer:
Follow-up consultation

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Related your friend, based on the fact that he is not sure if he had had sexual intercourse or not, I'd suggest to do HIV test just as a precaution.

Regarding your concern, it is said that the following factor may affect the smell of your sperm like what you eat and drink can change the smell of sperms, your overall health and medicines tend to make your sperm and semen strongly smell.

First ejaculation in a long period of time will have a much stronger smell, smoking and alcohol may make your ejaculation smell bitter etc.

But if your sperm and semen have a fishy or foul smell and their color changes into brown, red, green or yellow, you must have an infection which always occurs at the prostate gland or other organs of male productive system (STI).

In this case, you should meet an infectious diseases specialist or a urologist for a clinical examination and do some investigations.

However, about weird feeling after sex, you should know that this occasional sensation is unpleasant but not serious and maybe is due to secretion from the prostate gland which is alkaline and continues to seep into the urethra after orgasm. It irritates the lining and causes sensitivity. You should drink plenty of water to flush them out.

I hope my answer helps you. Feel free to ask me further questions.

Brief Answer:
Please don't worry about HIV.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

No, there are no life threatening symptoms (about your yellow semen after masturbating). You should know that you cannot get HIV through food. It needs human-to-human contact to be transmitted. HIV is a weak virus and dies immediately when it is exposed to air. It is also worth noting, that even if the food contained blood and even if that blood contained the HIV virus, it still would not have direct access to your blood stream.

I am sorry but I don't have any opinion related to the women that works with you.

I hope my answer helps you. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Please see the detailed answer below.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I am an ID specialist and I don't know to explain the behavior of the woman in your work , maybe you should ask a psychologist.

Yes, the WBC could show us some infection but not for some local infection including STD.

Please don't worry about the sperm color, I have given you some explanations above, related to it.

Related to the last concern, based on your history, I think there is no risk to get an HIV infection.

Please don't worry, there is not place for this.
