I had protected sex about 4 weeks ago. 2 weeks later I noticed I have penile discharge it doesn't come out on its own. when I squeeze the bottom of the penis to the head that's when a little bit comes out. on the 3rd week I went to get a screening for hiv aids gonorrhea syphilis chlamydia and herpes all the results were negative. i think it was called the 4th generation early detection test in antibodies they took both blood and urine samples. it doesn't hurt to urinate or anything I don't know what it could be. I'm scared I might have a std but the results were negative. I don't know what to do.

Brief Answer:
Stay relaxed and monitor!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Am happy to know that you have done tests and they showed nothing worrisome. Also, you have no symptoms and there is no reason why you should be worried. Discharge related to an infection would flow on its own and not when you choose to squeeze on the penis. Please, refrain from such acts as you are not helping but damaging.

If any thing changes, report to me. If nothing changes, stay good and enjoy. But, remember unprotected sex can ruin your live. Always pay much attention and use protection.

I wish you well. Keep the discussion going if you so desire/
