This is kinda embarrising?

Question

Okay after my first prenatal visit i found out that i had chlamydia, test positve for herpes, have a UTI, and a bladder infection. Also I have HPV and they are supposed to be testing me for cervical cancer when I go to my next doctor visit this week. I've taken medicine for the UTI and chlamydia that supposed to have cleared it up. Im scared out of my mind on what to do and im scared to the health of my baby, I asked the doctor will this affect my pregnancy and she told me no, but im still scared. Has anyone else out there ever had anything like this happen to them? Im the sad thing about it is that I have only had sex with one person, my now boyfriend and we got tested the last time i thought i was pregnant and i was clean, but b4 we started going together he slept with his ex and im guessing thats where he got this sh*t from. I forgave him and now where together. Im just so sad and dont know what to do. Any suggestions

I dont need rude answers from any of you lame a*ss people who think your better than anyone else, so as far as that goes you can kiss my a*ss and keep ya comments to yaself

Answer 1

Okay, do not freak out. Everything will be fine. Believe the doctor if he or she tells you that everything will be alright. Nothing you have is a big deal compared to Aids, Cancer, or worse. Remain positive for your child and focus on positive things. Do something meaningful to keep your thoughts in the right direction. If you have not told your bf, tell him. Good luck to you and your child. : )

Answer 2

Chlamydia is curable by taking an anti-biotic as is the UTI, so since you've taken your pills, don't worry about those anymore. I know someone who had chlamydia for so long and she never knew it, she became sterile because of it and never did have kids.
As for HPV and herpes, they are uncurable diseases. HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) is actually a collection of viruses that causes genital warts. There was a statistic I read several years ago that said 1 in 5 people has HPV. I'm not sure how accurate that is now, but I'm sure it's not far from the truth. HPV can cause cervical cancer. I have two different friends who have HPV. One gets warts and has them burned or frozen off depending on where they're at, the other one has NEVER had a wart. Her doctor said that she's what they call a carrier. She'll probably never have a break out, but she has a MUCH higher chance of getting cervical cancer than the one that gets break outs. When they were pregnant, their doctors both told them it won't affect the baby unless they are in the middle of an extreme break out, and then it can make it difficult for the baby to travel out of the birth canal.

As for herpes, there are treatments, but it's forever. Some people don't get break outs and others get them all the time. My friend with the chlamydia also has herpes. (20+ years ago her husband at the time was a cheating s.o.b. too.) She says that she never gets break outs unless something triggers it. A yeast infection, colored or scented toilet paper, feminine sprays and some feminine hygeine products, things like that. She's the only one with herpes that I know, but I do know from being an NCMA, working in the health care field, and studying to be a nurse, that a lot of doctors will perform a c-section if you have a herpes break out. Sounds scary, but I don't think you want your baby to be infected with herpes for the rest of their life too do you? Make sure you have a good, competent, doctor with a good reputation and you'll be okay.

It may seem like the end of the world right now, but it's not. Herpes is unfortunately making a big come back. People need to be more safe when having sex. I suggest that from now on, if you're going to remain with your boyfriend that you both use protection. It sounds like he's been playing around and if he's brought home this stuff, then who knows what he might bring home next time. There is no cure for AIDS and it's a fatal disease. Please protect yourself so that you can stay healthy and be around for your baby. Good luck sweetie, and I hope some of this helps. =)

I'm sorry that you're going through this, and to come here and reveal your problems and to be met with such rude and nasty remarks is shocking.
It's irrelevant how you got in this position, you are concerned with the health of yourself and your child.
The UTI/bladder infection/chlamydia are all bacteria, so those shouldn't cause a problem if you take your medications properly.

And try to keep your head up. Don't listen to any of the negativity that you hear here, or in the real world. Everyone makes mistakes and trust people that end up deceiving them. Nobody deserves to get diseases based on that. Try to be strong for your baby. Find a good support system. And good luck.

Answer 4

Wow you have a mess going on. I dont know anyone that has been in this situation but your doctor must know if you will be ok or not. If you do decide to stay with your boyfriend I would suggest you have him put a rubber on cause lord know what he is out there doing and you need to protect yourself and that baby. I wish you the best and as far as the girl who made the statement that you should be married, even married people do it too so she needs to be quiet! Just try and do what ever the doctor tells you and i hope everything works out , good luck

Answer 5

That is embarrassing! You got your moneys worth from that doctor visit.

Most people have had many of these diseases but not all at once and not when expecting a baby. Hopefully your doctor is not judgmental. It is very unlikely that your HPV is cancerous since it takes a while to turn cancerous and you haven't had it for very long. At any rate, if it is, it is probaably totally curable. A friend of mine had metastasized HPV cancer and the new treatments eliminated it.

Answer 6

I am very sorry to hear what you are going through, I don't believe that the chlamidya and the other stuff that's going on with you will affect the baby, the baby is safe and sound within your womb, about your boyfriend, watch out and if he does it again, kick his butt out of you life, you do not deserve this, I am also sorry about some of the comments some people made earlier, a lot of times people can be rude, ignorant and smart asses. Don't pay atention, I personally reported a couple of them, I wish you the best of luck, God bless!

Answer 7

Hiya, there is alsorts off treaments avaliable for chlamydia its can go undetected for years but herpes u will always be a carrier.U should be carefull who u get involved with hope all go's well for u with the treatment and pregnancy and dont frett about it as the doctor has told u it wont affect the pregnancy. goodluck

Answer 8

Wow! You forgave him??? Are you nuts? Do you realize Herpes NEVER goes away and HPV could make you sterile. This guy is a total a** and so are you if you stay with him. Was his ex that he slep with a hooker? I think most prostitutes don't even get that many STD's in their whole career.

Answer 9

You guys, you need to be more understanding, everyone makes mistakes.

Okay, for the answer:
I myself have cervical cancer, but not from sex. I have a disease called PCOS (post-cystic ovary syndrom), and this prevents me from having children, and it causes cervical cancer. My best advice to you would be to follow the doctor's orders EXACTLY so that you can have the healthiest baby you possibly can.

Best wishes to you and your child.

Answer 10

That's why you should only have sex when you are married !!!
