What Causes Testicular Itching After Having Protected Sex?

Hello, two weeks ago I had sex with a woman, using protection. About a week later I testicles started itching. Since then I have been very nervous and lost appetite and the more I was reading about hiv the more of some of those symptoms I started having.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.

You had protected sex, so the risk for HIV is almost negligible. Condom does not protect scrotum. Itching over scrotum is could be due to innumerable causes of skin diseases from jock itch (skin ti skin contact) to eczema. Consult your dermatologist and get relieved from this nuisance. Wish you a speedy recovery.
