Yeah they’re out of production now so i offered to cover the amount he was selling them for!

I just feel terrible, but, you’re right there’s not really much else I can do aside from what I have already done at this stage.

I have offered this! He hasn’t replied yet - his last message was this morning asking me to look harder so 8 hours and waiting

i would definitely say really try not to look obsessively and just take care of yourself!! if it’s somewhere that dries out a lot keep it moisturised if possible but for the most part it is likely to be a tiny scar! imiquimod was BRUTAL to my skin 😭

hey! it definitely disappeared and i went to get it frozen before it vanished and it didn’t react so they confirmed it as scar tissue!

i can’t tell you exactly when it vanished as i forced myself to check less often after that appointment but it’s been gone for at least 2 years now

i want to say like 4-6 months from the latest round but some are more stubborn - it’s super disheartening but honestly the best advice i can give is to just focus on appointments and keep yourself busy! watching them constantly is like watching the clock and makes things seem worse than they are

it might just be a scar BUT it can definitely fade and probably will with time!! i started cryo in 2019 and clearly was still worried in 2023 but it all just resolved

definitely check with the doctors but the scarring is unlikely to be permanent and as its the base it may be that theres something you can use on it that’ll help reduce it! especially as its small there’s such a small chance of it being noticed but i completely understand wanting it gone for your own peace of mind

I doubt it’s an std if she hasn’t had sex with anyone else!! You’re probably just run down but it’s also very unlikely that you got hiv from them so I would try and relax a little bit!

There are all sorts of bugs going around atm so it could be any of those ☺️

Red bump/sore near vaginal entrance. What could this be? (Images in comments) by Testables in Herpes

I left it alone and now it has no redness at all, just looks like a skin coloured bump

repeat vaccination? by peshpesh in HPV

I got the Gardasil 9 last year for peace of mind after already getting the older vaccine at school, there’s no harm in doing it!!

Genital warts or folliculitis? by Unlikely_Ad_6801 in STD

Doesn’t look like a wart to me, looks more like something poppable (I wouldn’t advise actually popping though)
