Hello doctor, 1.5 years back I had sex with my second boyfriend (previously I had with another guy 1 years back) after which I got vaginal infection. I went to a gynecologist she treated it saying vaginal candida bt again after 8 months it came back I repeated the course of medicines bt it is not completely cured. Other than this I don't have any HIV symptoms. Can this be a HIV related problem? What should I do i am scared.

Hi. For any confirmation you can get your blood test done for HIV 1&2 by any 3rd/4th generation test to be sure. The symptoms you have mentioned can be seen in many patients who are not having any HIV infection. So get the test done for confirmation. Thanks.

Vaginal infection is very common in all women. So, don't be scared, get the treatment for it. If you are still scared get a HIV test once then you will be pretty sure it.
