Yes, actually. If you think you have been exposed to HIV there is a treatment called HIV prophylaxis. This can greatly reduce the chances of HIV forming and if it doesn't then it can lessen the effects of HIV. There can be a myriad of side effects such as headaches, lethargy, and nausea. The treatment should be started right after suspected exposure and lasts up to a month. It is also expensive and limited in availability. Good Luck!

Can a yeast infection be cured if you are on your period?

No, a yeast infection can't be cured by menstruation. If anything a yeast infection may be made worse by menstruation because during menstruation the blood changes the pH of the vagina so it is more favourable to harmful bacteria and yeast. Using certain menstrual products such as tampons or commercial pads can also increase risks of infection, commercial pads especially can cause yeast infections as they prevent air-flow to the genitals so making the area warm and wet so perfect for yeast growth. If you have a yeast infection it's best to seek treatment, confirm diagnosis with a doctor ideally (especially if you're sexually active, in case it's something else), and then you can use over-the-counter yeast infection treatment.

Can staph infection be cured?

Staph infections can be cured. If you have one, it is IMPERATIVE that you must see your doctor as soon as you can to get medical treatment. Because staph eats away at your body, you never want to wait too long before getting help. The process of curing one is not fun at all, and extremely painful. Depending on the size and severity of your staph infection will determine the actions your doctor will take in curing it. In most cases, this is how a staph infection will be cured. The doctor will try to drain the staph infection. If it is too painful to be drained, they will numb the area being worked on. They will drain the infection out completely. They will irrigate the area with water to clean the area. The infection will be packed with gauze and bandaged up. You will get a shot to relieve pain. You will be prescribed with medications to help with pain. Hopefully, your staph infection will be gotten rid of. These can NOT be cured on your own, and it is EXTREMELY important to see your doctor, because if you wait too long, it will eat away your body. That is how a staph infection can be cured.
