his symptoms are that he found a bump on his penis and i have been having discolored discharge so we aren't sure if the bump he has could be an STD. we both are each others firsts for sure which really confuses us how we could have gotten an STD but i heard that you could be born with an STD and not know it which i didn't know if that was true or not

Well someone is obviously lying...How could one of you have an STD if neither of you had ever had sex before?
Also, there are other things out there besides STD's...such as BABIES...Protect yourself!

If it was truly both of your first times (and oral sex is sex, so that counts), then the possibility is extremely low. However, you could have given each other urinary tract infections, which happens when bacteria that normally live in the vagina find their way into the bladder. You didn't mention what your symptoms are. If the primary symptom is burning during urination, that's probably it.
Whatever your symptoms, I would get myself checked by a doctor. UTIs are very easily treated with antibiotics, so don't worry too much.
And like others have said, ALWAYS protect yourself, regardless of your history. You can ALWAYS get pregnant, regardless of whether or not your partner has an STD!

You can be born with a STD. Some people are "carriers" of STD's such as syphilis, chlamydia, and herpes. You can also get herpes by just kissing, sharing a drink, or chapstick with someone who has the virus. With herpes you can contract HSV2 (genital) from someone who has performed oral sex on an infected person and infected themselves orally and you kiss them...etc. And then in turn perform oral on your partner. That seems like a lot, but that's the only way you could have contracted genital herpes if neither of you are lying about you previous sex life. So just go get tested anyways. You never know it could just be a yeast infection...which guys can get from a female.

yes some people are born with std's especially back before the 80's if even then because there was lack of knowledge about some of these things...but i'm guessing that your parents would have told either one of you that this had happened because they would know....also i'd say someones not as virginal as they claim to be. i've never heard of virgins passing anything along but they sure can catch em. besides obviously you aren't being safe if you are worried. you need to protect yourself better. and here is a newsflash for you, men will say ANYTHING to get you in bed. i knew a guy once that said he was a virgin just to get girls to sleep with him and he'd be bad in bed and everything to play it up when really he was a huge player. luckily i knew this guy for awhile and saw his game in action and didn't fall for it.

Sounds like you both have yeast infections to me, but it still wouldn't hurt to get tested for everything.
And yes, you CAN be born with an STD.....pregnant moms who have herpes, hepatitis, or HIV can pass it on to their babies.
Go buy some yeast infection medicine from the personal health care isle in Wal-mart to relieve the itching & burning, then call your doc or go to the health dept. to get all checked out.

one of you could have contracted an std if you've had oral sex before with other people. otherwise, it is pretty unlikely that you have one. since you say that you're both showing symptoms, i would suggest that you both get tested anyways just to be safe.

Has either of you performed oral sex for someone else that may have had the disease?
What are the symptoms?
Either way I'd go to planned parenthood or something and get tested. It's fairly inexpensive and they will keep things confidential.

Has either of you cheated? If you haven't, i would ask him if he has. If neither have cheated, then one of you are lying about being a virgin. It is possible to have contracted it from birth but if so, you probably would have known it by now. Either way both of you need to get to a Dr. and get treated. I personally think one of you has some explaining to do.

No way. STD is just that a sexually transmitted disease. Somebody is lying about being a first timer.
