HIV Risk Assessment - Protected Sex With A Female CSW
Aug 13, 2013
28 days ago I had sex with a female CSW. I'm male. Oral then vaginal then oral again. Used one condom for first oral and the vaginal (which, by the way, was extremely short-lived). A second condom for second oral. Both condoms were on before and after and remained intact. No obvious tears, rips, breakages, etc. Most concerned about the vaginal sex. As I said, it was protected, but I can't stop thinking about "what ifs." Also as I said, the condom was on when I inserted and when I pulled out. I don't think it slipped (I'd have noticed, yes?). And, as I also said, it was intact after.
Oraquick in-home tests were negative at 21 and 24 days post-exposure (if you can call it an exposure). I plan on testing again this week (now that I'm four-weeks down the track).
I understand symptoms are not diagnostic, but I have had a few: white tongue (from about 2 weeks after it), maybe a rash on my face and small parts of my thigh but not sure (from about 3 weeks after it). No fever. No sore throat. Nothing else.
What do you think? Was this a no risk situation? How much weight can I put on these negative test results (even if it wasn't no risk)?

2 days ago, I had protected vaginal sex with an escort. She also gave me protected BJ, but she licked my testicles as well which were not covered.
The girl had a lot of "old' bumbles in her back and cheeks as if they were teenage acne marks, but nothing at all down there and nothing at all around her lips. Therefore, I didn't care about them and still kissed her in her back and kissed her in her lips and cheek.
After one hour I felt kind of dizzy and my throat started to soar a little bit. Now, my throat started to hurt me again (very very mild) with a little bit drowsiness.
I'm really worried that I could've gotten something from her
What are my risks of getting any STDs? and what are they?
Thanks in advance

i was in a relationship with a guy and we had unprotected sex (vaginal) a few times. when we broke up i found out he was a lot more promiscuous than i initially believed. i was tested for everything 10 weeks after our last unprotected vaginal sex. everything including HIV came back negative. i had however performed oral sex on him without ejaculation one time after last having sex. that would have put me 3 weeks out from that for my HIV test. i don't know if i had a 4th or 3rd generation but i called my dr and she said if i had HIV it would have shown up. i gave her all the details as well. she said i could come back next year for another test if i was still concerned so that made me nervous she had no idea what she was talking about because everything i've seen says 3 months is conclusive with most people showing positive by 6 weeks. i do plan to be tested one more time bc i have severe anxiety over this and its the only thing that will put my mind at rest but until i can get in for another appointment here are my questions:
1. my 10 week negative is a good indicator i did not contract HIV from the unprotected vaginal episodes correct? i know not technically conclusive until 12 weeks but everything i've read says that is HIGHLY unlikely to change
2. when i performed oral on him i had had a tonsillectomy 6 weeks prior. my throat was healed as far as i remember. i do have bleeding gums occasionally. no sores or STDs. does that increase my chances from oral? i know the stance here is no risk, did not know if the previous tonsillectomy would change that.
also i've asked him many times if he was free of STDs mainly HIV and he swears he is clean but i doubt he has been tested anytime soon. i do know he use to give plasma on a regular basis, not sure if he still does that since we are no longer in contact.

I know my question may have been asked a million times before but I want to get a first hand assessment of my potential risk with HIV based from the series of events that acquired during that night. I was firm to believe that oral sex is safe - up until I read some articles on the internet. Some websites say it's low-risk. Some say it is moderate risk. I do not know which claim is more true than the other
So how this is my last sexual encounter went:
- So I met guys
- I did brush my teeth lightly.
- We basically did give and receive oral sex. No anal sex was done .
- One of the two guys did finger me.
- The whole act last around 30 - 40 minutes
- he ejaculated 5-10 minutes after through masturbation. He "unleashed" it in my legs or in my chest.
- About a minute or two, I gargled water
- We had a small talk after the deed. I was kind of hesitant to believe that he was negative although that's what he did told me. Aside from that, he told me that what we did was a low-risk activity.
Now for my questions:
- Let' say he was indeed positive, what are the chances of him passing the virus on this one time incident?
- From what I have read over at the internet, saliva has a capability to deactivate the virus once any fluid comes contact to it. Is this accurate? Does brushing one's teeth lessen this saliva's capability?
- Is pre-ejaculate just as infectious as semen or blood?
- Would brushing my teeth before or after the act really create cuts/bleeds deep enough that some pre-ejaculate may come in contact with my bloodstream?
- What about deep throat oral sex. What are the risks say he had pre-ejaculate if I was doing it to him?
- Let's also assume that he had a soaring viral load, will this affect my chances? Again, some websites argue that the higher the VL, the higher the risk one is exposed to.
- What are your thoughts about fingering. Is this safer than say, oral and anal sex?
- where I live we have Rapid ICT for testing. How conclusive is it on 6, 8, 10, 12 weeks of testing? Should I be tested after 12 weeks for it to be definitely conclusive or 12 weeks is more than enough?
I know that the only way to know my status is to get tested. It was only been six weeks since the act happened and my anxiety has been killing me to death regarding this incident. I do not want to be the first person documented to have contracted the disease through oral sex.

1. I had a HIV test done that came back negative. Not sure which one but I had blood drawn and found out my results around an hour or so. Any clue what gen that is?
2. With that test is it safe to assume anything I did 8 weeks previously to have gotten HIV May not show up but anything 8 weeks and on would be conclusive?
3. My only exposure in the past 8 weeks was unprotected oral, 25 days before the test in the window period, with a woman (both ways) whom I had done this act with multiple times before in the past year. Is this a concern?
4. Do I need to re-test based on this information?

So, 13 days ago I had an unprotected sexual encounter with a family friend. No actual sex but there was genital to genital touching and oral sex going both ways. Since that time I have been a nervous wreck to the point that I'm barely functioning because I have convinced myself I am going to get herpes. I have not had any of the flu like symptoms and no rashes or bumps that are obvious but I am obsessively checking myself multiple times daily. I know I am likely creating most of this anxiety in my head. What ia the likelihood that I was infected and just not showing symptoms yet?

I had unprotected sex with a female of unknown status. (i'm male) it was a one time occurrence. I went in and had an RNA test at 10 days which came back negative and a antibody test at 26 days which came back negative. How confident can I be in those results? It seems that 3 months is the mark but there is some updated news that findings can be given with high confidence earlier than that.

I had a small risk with a high risk woman. There was nothing that happened but a little fingering on the surface level (nothing deep) but my finger had a 2 mm sore/abrasion on it (surface as the type you get when you scrape your knee). The cut had happened about 20 hours before. I immediately stopped when I remember after three seconds.

I regrettably had multiple unprotected possible exposures to HSV-2 with a guy i was seeing at the time, i do not know his status at all and we are not in contact anymore. I have only ever dated 1 guy before him and that was a long term relationship. We were both each others firsts so we were positive we didn't have anything. After we broke up i ended up seeing this new guy. I would confider him promiscuous, he told me he's had 15-20 partners so far. He's 24 and I'm 21. The last time i saw him was at the end of November and I'm really worried that i might have gotten asymptomatic genital herpes from him. I have never had a cold sore and have not observed any signs/symptoms thus far. I never noticed any on him either when i was seeing him.
I also got tested for other STDS and everything was negative and conclusive. I thought i could move on but now I'm so nervous, i don't know what to do and i feel terrible for even having sex with someone in the first place so fast. What are my chances? I wanted to get tested but turns out they don't do type specific testing in Ontario.

Got a handjob at asian massage parlor week ago. Concerned specifically about hiv as well as other stds.
My worries lie on possibility of masseuse having a cut on her hand, vaginal fluids or semen from a past customer coming into contact/crossing with my urethra as she performed the handjob. My confusion is that i read that urethra is one of the modes of transmission but when this question has been asked on dr. And hiv forums they say no risk, no need for testing and very low risk of stds. What is the difference between unprotected vaginal/anal and hanjob where the urethra is concerned or any small cuts, nicks, etc. On either participant? Thank you so much for you help in this matter as i eagerly await your expertise. Again specifically if fresh blood from a cut on hand made direct contact with the urethra (top of penis) is there a risk and why? Or why not?

I had a risky encounter with high risk girl 7.7 years ago which looked protected as I wore two condoms and one condom seems to have broke and second one looked intact, since then I didn't had sex, I recently fell in love with one girl and we did a frottage followed by heavy deep kissing and which was then followed by oral sex on her ,
I guess during the process of our deep kissing she probably might have bit my tongue a little and in the process of lovemaking I didn't realised that.
After I performed oral sex I realised..there might be some blood on my tongue which might facilitate HIV infection to her, Although I myself don't know whether I am infected with HIV, but with the assumption I am HIV infected , is it possible she can get HIV infected from these route??...it's been eight months I am avoiding to be intimate with her and been total paranoid about HIV infection for her.
After exactly 22 days post that incident ,she was down with bad sore throat, chills, lost weight a little bit.

4 weeks back I made a mistake and engaged in a massage from a female masseur. She gave me unprotected oral for 1 minute followed by a handjob.
Do you think there is a possibility that HIV can enter my body through the tip of the penis. 1 week after the incident I started having itchy bumps on my body which disappear after taking antihistamines and then comes back again.
What are the risks of getting HIV from this exposure ?

I know this has been asked in some form or another over the various forums, but I just had to ask myself and share my experiences and symptoms that have been raising red flags with me recently. Looking for expert analysis/advice/opinions.....
8/10 - Had protected sex with sex worker, condom stayed intact.
Gave unprotected cunnilingus to her for 5-10 min, no bleeding or sores on vagina nor on or in my mouth.
Kept my tongue around the clitoris and very entrance of vaginal opening but less than 1/4 inch inside.
She was sort of a squirter and climaxed, i accidentally swallowed a gulp of vaginal juices.
8/13 - 3 days later got a sever sore throat, lost voice, no noticeable fevers or weakness. (red flag)
8/15 - Urgent care said not strep or bacterial, probably viral, gave antiseptic gargle and said to ride it through.
8/16 - hip joints get soar, noticing mild weakness and fever-like sensation but no fever (yellow flag)
8/22 - Throat almost normal, got voice back. Saw same sex worker again but this time she had several little round bandages on her arms, neck, and back. (red flag) She said she broke out because of something she ate but i was skeptical. Had protected sex and unprotected oral for 1 minute, no swallowing of juices this time. ( I know, i'm a horny idiot)
8/24 - Had severe herpes outbreak on penis. (Had herpes 20 years, however recently with meds and vitamins the outbreaks are mild, usually one or two blisters. This time was a full blown cluster, like my immune system was busy fighting something) (red flag)
8/27 - Went to free AIDS clinic. Took finger prick HIV test, came Negative but has been only 17 days since suspected risk. Clinic said possibly HIV infection might have happened and to definitely come back every month for 5 months to test.
8/28 - Mysterious scratch on my right arm just below my shoulder, didn't injure it at all. Where'd it come from? (yellow flag)
8/29 - Scratch turned into purple crescent shaped bruise the size of a quarter. Never had that before anywhere. (red flag)
8/30 - Weird square shaped bruise on my back, but may have been from sleeping on something in the bed.
8/31 - Herpes cleared up, usual scab scars remain.
9/3 - Had unprotected intercourse with wife
9/6 - Wife getting severe sore throat, cold symptoms, similar to what I had on 8/13. (yellow flag)
Also my weight has dropped from 189 to 180 since initial incident on 8/10 (perhaps because of guilt and worrying? Or something more sinister?)
Bruise finally starting to fade but still there.
So due to my adulterous debauchery with the details and timeline given, what are my chances that i may have contracted HIV? (Definitely / Probably / Questionable / Doubtful / No Way)
Am I having symptoms of seroconversion? Or some other ailment might have befallen me?
I will be testing again next week, and again in 6 weeks. But it sucks because you have to wait so long to get a conclusive reading. I sooo don't want to spread this to anyone if I have it.

4 months ago I had protected sex with prostitute and she also give me oral pleasure, which was unprotected. For the past month I am feeling tingling in my penis, actually tip of the penis. This tingling is somehow constants, which means it occurs at least once or twice a day. My doctor thinks this is not herpes or HPV, because I have no ulcers, sores, bumps or whatever and nothing visible on penis, just this tingling sensation.

Had unprotected oral and protected sex from an escort, no symptoms apart from a more frequent need to urinate and noticing urine dribble - could be me paying more attention to it. Slight irritation at the end of penis but think is is due to the dribble.
At about the 5/6 day mark had an STI test and all come back negative.
Should I still be worried about this or is the urine dribble most likely caused by something else?

I am straight male in my 30's.
Today I messed up and had sex with a sex worker. The sex was 'protected' at all times - we used a condom. HOWEVER, she sucked and licked my testicles and the very base of my shaft. Sorry to get into the details, but perhaps this is important - we had short vaginal and somewhat rough anal sex. No artificial lubricant was used. I didn't inspect the condom in details afterwards, but it seemed OK.
My last shave 'down there' was 2 days ago. Now I notice that my skin is still somewhat irritated (red bumps), although I don't see any obvious cuts. There is the possibility of micro cuts, though...
Needless to say, now when the sane judgment came back to me, I have a few questions/concerns:
1. What is the major STDs I should be worried about now? It is my estimate that it is Syphilis. I am not really worried about HIV (condom didn't break) or Herpes (it is now kind of common). Genital warts - slim chance, there is a 100 strains and only a few cause the warts.
2. Assuming I have caught Syphilis, am I immediately contagious to others, or first I have to reach 1st or 2nd phase of the disease?
3. Is Syphilis contracted when it penetrates into the bloodstream (i.e. there has to be a CUT), or as soon as skin (any skin) touches the lesion. If there is no lesion whatsoever, how contagious is it still?

2 nights ago a guy performed oral sex on me and i have been paranoid about HIV ever since. I keep thinking what if he had a bleeding sore or the fact that HIV is in saliva so i get scared. He also inserted a finger into my vagina and it had a deep hangnail on it but it was not bleeding or red or anything, it looked the same color as his skin. He performed oral for about a minute. Should i be concerned? I'm just depressed cuz i just got an HIV test a few weeks ago and it was negative and i just want to stay negative. Im kinda mad at myself for putting myself at risk of catching HIV again.

I had a Cystoscopy yesterday afternoon. I've known for about a month that I would have to have one and I have been worried sick about it. Found some awful posts on the net about it, and then fortunately found many reassuring posts on this forum! Trust me that when the ladies on here say "Don't worry"....DON'T! I've been so anxious, that I've lost sleep and my appetite over it. I was in and out of Theatre in 7 minutes! I asked my husband to time it as I knew I wanted to do a review on here to help others, as it has been this forum that got me through it yesterday!
You are in the position for a smear test for the procedure. Knees bent and apart and feet flat and together on the couch. So no stirrups (which I was glad about, as I hate that restriction, and I had expected that!) First they swab the area down, then insert the local anaesthetic. That just feels slightly cold, but not uncomfortable or painful. Then the camera is inserted, and again, that didn't hurt either. The nurse holding my hand told me it was in and then let me watch on the monitor. Whilst the camera is in, the surgeon fills your bladder with water so that he can see it all clearly. Within a couple of minutes, it's all done! I honestly wouldn't even say it was uncomfortable. You are aware something is going on, but certainly no pain. And if the surgeon told me he was going to do another Cystoscopy on me, I wouldn't lose a moments sleep over it! I was given a cup of tea after the procedure, and sat and rested for a while, and once I had passed urine the nurses discharged me from the ward. I've been passing urine normally and it hasn't even stung, so I guess I've been lucky. I had no pain until a couple of hours after the procedure, when I guess my anaesthetic had worn off. It was just like Period Pain. I took a couple of Paracetamol and it eased off, and today I am fine.
