My last sexual encounter was 4.5 months ago, and I've been tested HIV negative. I have no symptoms of boils, rashes, spots, lesions, strange fluids, etc, and I have also taken an STD screening test. I'm just wondering for the time until I get the results, are there any STDs that can show no symptoms in a male for 4.5 months? How likely is it that I have it if I've only had sex with a condom?

Clamydia can go undetected for long periods of time as can syphillis. Both of these STD's can lead to serious problems. If you believe........or have heard it rumored that you have been sexually active with someone who has an STD you need to be tested. Go to the health department in your area. They have nurses and doctors there who will help you. Condoms do help to protect you, but depending on circumstances you may have been infected. It is not worth taking the chance.

Moles, warts, and skin tickets are normal skin wounds that develop naturally. Even though they're generally non malignant, they may be humiliating if found on a visible part like the face. Epidermis lesions like moles and warts cause self esteem issues to the sufferers. A person with moles normally turns into a loner because they don't desire to be seen in public. They think ashamed to be out in public, therefore depression will obviously follow but now you can change all of this with this information from here https://tr.im/V26KF , Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal eBook.

If you use a condom, that doesn't protect you fully from warts or herpes, but as for other things, some don't show up in men at all, Thats why all these women are getting stuff and don't know where it comes from. The ones that don't have the symptoms are the ones they usually don't check for but you should get checked anyways.

Almost all can have no symptoms. Chlamydia, Syphilis, and Herpes are all notorious for not having any symptoms. They may never have symptoms in some people, which is why regular testing is so important.

HPV is an STD that men can get. Right now they have no real way to screen for it.
http://cancer.about.com/od/hpv/f/HPVmen.htm
HPV is a virus that is contracted by both men and women, so yes, men are able to contract and transmit the HPV virus.
As of now, there is not a medical test available for men to detect the HPV virus. Women are able to detect the virus through a test that consists of examining cervical cells under a microscope.

A doctor can visually examine the male for genital warts, a product of an HPV infection.
http://geosalud.com/VPH/hpvmen.htm
Most men who get genital HPV do not have any symptoms. However, some types of HPV can cause genital warts. Genital warts are single or multiple growths that appear in the genital area. They may be raised, flat, or cauliflower shaped.

Warts may appear within weeks or months after sexual contact with an infected person, or not at all. A person can have the type of HPV that causes genital warts, but never develop any warts.
Genital HPV is passed on through genital contact.

Genital warts can also be passed on by a person who has HPV but no visible warts. Since the virus can be “silent” for a long time, people can have genital HPV even if years have passed since they have had sex.
Over half of sexually active men in the United States (U.S.) will have HPV at some time in their lives.
There is no treatment or cure for HPV. But there are ways to treat the health conditions associated with HPV in men, including genital warts, penile cancer and anal cancer.

It is also important for men to realize that they can unknowingly transmit HPV to their female sex partners. Compared to heterosexual men, women are at higher risk of developing disease from HPV—most notably, cervical cancer. Cervical cancer in women is much more common than anal or penile cancer in men. According to ACS, more than 9,700 women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer in the U.S. in 2006.
Are there ways to reduce my chances of getting HPV?

Because HPV is so common but usually invisible, the only sure ways to prevent it are not to have sex, or to have sex with only one uninfected person, who is only having sex with you. You can lower your risk by limiting your number of sex partners and choosing partners who have had few or no sex partners. Condoms may also lower your risk of HPV-associated conditions. Condoms may provide some but not complete protection against HPV, since HPV can infect skin that is not covered by a condom. Condoms have been shown to reduce the risk of genital warts and cervical cancer. Condoms can also reduce the risk of HIV and some other sexually transmitted infections, when used all the time and the right way.
