Went through a list of STD test and came through clean. How ever cost was whopping 13.5 k for the test. I went through tests given by a prominent sexologist in a well known lab.

We need some knowledge base in this areas. List of tests, labs where we can get good tests done and anonymously and not at too much cost.

Pointers in this area are welcome.

13 k is too high. Recently heard a friend saying around 3 k for more important tests in Delhi.

Hi WTH2029 Bro,

1.) Signing HIV consent form is a protocol to be followed as mandated by National Guidelines for HIV testing. No need to furnish your complete / actual / original name and signature. I usually provide my mongering name and phone number.

2.) It takes 1-3 days to receive fourth gen P24 Antigen results in Bangalore, I am unsure in Delhi / NCR region..

Thanks, just have one more question. I'm a complete noob at this but are condoms supposed to hang from he tip after I ejaculate? After ejaculating I could feel the something heavy hang from the tip of the condom, this does not mean it broke right?

I am not a doc to comment on this. But sometime back read a useful post in Bangalore thread, they suggest STD panel at Dr lalpath costing just 2.8 k. It seems useful. Anyways kudos to you come out clean.

Hi Zingza,

Thanks for the info. I was also thinking about a STD test as I'm open to deep french kissing, bareback blowjob and cunnilingus. I contacted metromale in t nagar for a STD checkup and they quoted me 18 k Will try Dr. Lalpath.

Thanks.

Hi bro,

Actually I was wondering why they charge 13 k actually sexually transmitted disease we have to worry about is Hepatitis B (50 Rupees), Hepatitis C (100 Rupees), HIV (200 Rupees) and syphilis (50 Rupees) it usually cost you around Max 300-400 rupees including lab charges and these are main concern because these will have the major consequences of affecting life. Other test include herpes, chlamydia, Gonorrhea these test done to avoid spread of infection it's also usually around (700-800 rupees). It's good to check around 6 months once if your sexually active person.

Hi CoolSp Bro,

I'm unsure in which lab you got tested in Chennai, 13.5K is really costly. You may refer to my earlier posts during last year-end in Bangalore forum, I usually get tested through Dcotor Sfae. In-fact, their affiliated lab in Koramangala, Bangalore has Head-office / reference-lab in Chennai which does back-end processing for majority of the hospitals in Chennai and it is NABL accredited. By doing online payment, STD Panel costed me 3.9K through the aforementioned portal, which includes separate tests for HSV-I & HSV-II. Alternatively, you can also get tested at Lalaji's pathology lab where basic STD panel costs 2.8K and they provide combo result for HSV-I&II. Both of these labs provide privacy by online reports. I simply furnish my mongering name, phone and e-mail while registering and signing HIV consent form.

Note:- I'm neither personally, nor commercially involved / engaged with any of the above mentioned portal or diagnostic center chain. I absolutely don't have any commercial motive here.

Thanks for the reply sir, just wanted to ask why do they make us sign a form and how long do they take to give the results?

Hi WTH2029 Bro,

30 days is a decent window-time (except rare cases) to get tested for Antibodies, however, 90 days is good-enough time-window to be really 100% sure. Lalaji's Pathology labs' STD Panel test costs INR 2.8K across India, it usually includes combination of HIV-I&II Antibodies plus fourth generation P24 Antigen test. You can also get tested for fourth generation P24 Antigen alone. Across all franchises of Lalaji's lab, one need to sign HIV consent form prior to giving blood sample.

An unsolicited free advice(feel free to ignore and discord):-
From your posts, I presume you have recently joined this forum and new to this hobby(correct me, otherwise). Unless you had any unprotected sex or any high-risk exposure due to broken or slipped condom, you need not worry much.

Alternatively, you might want to seek medical help to get all your questions answered and avoid anxiety.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to ask if 4 weeks since last exposure is a good enough window for a HIV test? Been getting some serious anxiety and would like to know which labs offer the 4th gen test in Delhi?

Hi WTH2029 Bro,

30 days is an adequate window-time (except rare cases) to get tested for Antibodies, however, for Antibodies tests, 90 days or 180 days is good window-time to be really sure. If you really want to know the status after 4 weeks of the latest exposure, PCR is more effective test, it directly looks for virus, but it is expensive.

Lalaji's Pathology labs' STD Panel test costs INR 2.8K across India, it usually includes combination of HIV-I&II Antibodies plus fourth generation P24 Antigen test or you can also get tested for fourth generation P24 Antigen alone.

Guys,

Want to get clarification from the people who have used Viagra, Cialis, Levitra etc kind of products. I had a discussion (serious one!) with a friend that these pills will not help to address his PE they only for ED. I have no experience with the tablet for ED or PE. Please share your thoughts. Thanks.

Mate,

As far as I know PE can be cured only by Kegel and breathing exercise. As a hack you can mastrubate two hours or an hour before the deed to reduce PE impact.

Please note that I am not a doctor so my advice is based on my research for my problems or what I have discussed with mongering friends. But Kegel is a time tested method which has cured PE for people. However, like all exercises the impact stops when you don't do. So 3 to 5 days a week is a must.

Regards.

Friend,

As far as I read PE needs many hourly therapy (Psychology) session. There is no pill to fix the issue so beware of such products in the market. Good luck.

Hi HpHash Brother,

I've responded to contact Andrologist or Sexologist to isolate between physiological or psychological issues, post that same doctor can refer to a Psychologist as required for therapy and counseling. Hope it clarifies.

So should I test again for HSV? The value is quite high on the index like near 35, is it advisable or can the test be actually wrong?

Hi SkypeKahinka Brother,

Do you have any symptoms of HSV? You should get tested again, however, prior to that I would highly encourage and recommend to consult a Venereologist or a doctor specialized in infectious diseases.

Dear all,

I would like to know if there are any sex therapists.

/ coach who provide experiential sex therapy to improve your skills, especially help in dealing with premature ejaculation and reticle dysfunction.

This is different from the traditional sex therapy as the latter one is purely clinical based while the former is medical plus Experientially training. It is common in the west but IDK about it here.

I know one sexologist in kolkata who offers holistic treatment to foreigners. He uses herbs, ayurveda, homeopathy, yoga etc. He also teaches kamasutra and tantric sex techniques.

But, don't expect 'live' sex therapy training. At least in India! Ha ha.

PM me if you need more information.

In return for my help. I will request for spa and inde girl contacts in Kolkata. If you have Kolkata contacts. Only those tasted by you. I have specific requirements. More in PM.

[HpHash]

Hi SandyCool Brother,

You should consult an Andrologist or Sexologist. PME is complex/composite function of physiological and psychological issues. Andrologist or Sexologist is the best person to ascertain and advice appropriate remedial measures. Normal/average time for ejaculation is a debatable topic, 10-30 minutes is the average/normal duration as per my knowledge.

Regards,

MSL.
