I urge you to read the lessons on this site regarding transmission.

You had no risk. Receiving oral ex is not a risk for HIV.

thank you for your reply.

In China, many of the CDC believe receiving oral sex is risk for HIV. And many top scientists in this field conviced there is no chance to be infected by HIV through receiving oral sex.

So i have to find the professionla webs out of China to get the answer.

You mean I won't be infected by HIV and needn't to have a test. Am I Right?

thank you!

Though other STDS can be transmitted through receiving oral sex, HIV cannot. Saliva contains over a dozen elements which neutralize the virus. In addition, no one has ever been documented from receiving HIV through saliva. This includes kissing, receiving oral sex, and the like.

Please read the LESSONS part of this website to fully educate yourself (and maybe others) about the real risks for HIV transmission: Namely, unprotected anal and/or vaginal sex.

You do not not need to test over this incident.

We cannot account for what other sources may say about risk regarding receiving a blowjob. Often they are conservative simply to cover themselves legally and otherwise.

What I can tell you without any reservation is that in the entire history of the epidemic there has never been a confirmed case of transmission of HIV to a man via his getting a blowjob. Not one! And considering how common a sexual act that is we would have known long before today if there was even a tiny risk invoived.

Other STDs are another matter. They can be transmitted through a blowjob. That's one of the reasons that we recommend that anyone who is sexually active ought to at least annually have a full STD panel done.

This time you are worrying without cause.

Cheers,

Your mean receiving unprotected blowjob is absolutely of no risk for HIV, am I right?

That is precisely what he means. It is based on concrete, current scientific data. You may rely on it.

This is an HIV-specifc site so we don't get into discussions about other STDs. What we do say is that anyone who is sexually active ought to regularly have a full STD panel done. That means at least annually.

If you are having any symptoms that is something to discuss with your doctor. For sure getting a blowjob is not in any way a risk for HIV transmission. Period.

Hi Andy, am I allowed to translate some articles on how is HIV transmitted and post them on some Chinese HIV forum? Of course I will add a link to your forum.

I think it is of great assisstance to some Chinese people who is now wondering whether they could be infected or not.

Wait for your permission.

Thank you!

first , thank you for sparing your time to help me.

is it possible for hiv transmmssion if i use a condom when having sex with a hooker?

is it necessary for me to take a test?

your early response will help me a lot. thank you!

Title: Re: is it possible for hiv transmmision?
Post by: jkinatl2 on February 18, 2011, 10:08:46 pm
No, HIV cannot pass through a condom.

And it is not with WHOM you are having sex (a preacher's daughter can have HIV too) but WHAT you do that causes an HIV infection. You used a condom. You were therefore protected from HIV.

Tony, I have merged your threads here. In the future please follow the rule which Matty has mentioned to you. Keep all of your entries in this same thread.

As Rod has told you, when you use a condom for intercourse it doesn't matter who your partner is. The protection from condoms is very effective. You have no cause for testing over this incident.

Just keep using a condom everytime for vaginal or anal intercourse and you will be well protected from the sexual transmission of HIV.

I must say sorry for violate the rules of this forum and never again

i will keep using condoms.


Thank you!

Do you mean by using condoms can 100% prevent me from HIV infection?

Is it safe for me to have sex with my wife?
Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: Andy Velez on February 19, 2011, 07:59:19 am
Yes, you can have sex with your wife.

Condoms provide very effective protection. Are they 100% effective? Nothing but your own hand is 100% effective against HIV transmission. But when a fresh and properly worn latex condom is used it provides  very effective protection.

Stop creating unnecessary drama. You were not at risk. You maybe just feeling a bit anxious and guilty about having strayed. Let it go and get on with your life.

Post by: Andy Velez on February 20, 2011, 10:54:59 am
Good. And if you have sex outside of your marriage again just make sure you always use condoms for either vaginal or anal intercourse. Then you will be well protected against HIV.
Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: tony_china on February 20, 2011, 09:21:37 pm
I promise to everyone of this forum, I will never ever do the same things again. I love my wife. She is an angel. I won't betray her again. I am so guilty these days.

Besides this forum, I also seek help from the Chinese local forums and the local CDC for advice. All of them suggest correctly  using condoms while having vaginal intercourse is safe and no need to have an HIV test.

I think I really correctly used the condom.

Today I feel still a little nervous and weak, so I come back here. I need a final confirmation that I am safe and no need to have a test, I can go back to normal life right now with no need to worry about HIV.

Thank you!

Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: Andy Velez on February 21, 2011, 08:29:28 am
Yes, you did not have a risk nor will you ever have a risk for HIV if you are always using a condom if having intercourse outside of your marriage. And even though at this moment when you are worried and feeling guilty  you think you will never stray again, I just want to remind you of the necessity to always wear a condom if you have intercourse outside of your marriage.

And I am going to warn you that if you return again just because you have "doubts" again about this non-risk incident, you may find yourself getting a Time Out from the site for coming back again about a non-risk incident.

You are worrying needlessly and as far as I can see it's all about guilt and not about risk, because you did not have a risk. Period. End of story. Stop the drama and get on with your life.

Hi Andy,it's me again. Sorry for my bothering. After getting the advice from you, I felt much more better,then I put myself into very busy work. In the past week I almost forgot the incident. But yesterday, one thing came into my mind. I cannot recall the details of the incident, since I tried to forget it. Anyway, if it was tha case, was  it possible that my finger (in case it had touched some fluid of the woman) made me dangerous  when I cleaned my penis using a completely new piece of the wet tissue provided by the woman? please help me to confirm it. Thank you!

Tony,

Knock it off. You used a condom for intercourse and that's the ONLY thing that matters. Stop torturing yourself with guilt. You did not have a risk for hiv infection.

Keep posting about this NO RISK incident and you will be given a time out.

PLEASE CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!!!

Hi ,Andy.

Today I got an accident. I went to a massage store to take oil massage. But the girl suddenly sucked my dick for several times before I stopped her.My question is whether there was any risk for me to be infected by HIV or some other sexual tansferred diseases?

Beg for your reply.

Thank you.

Tony

A blowjob is just a blowjob and it's never a risk for getting HIV. There is no need to test for HIV over having received a blowjob.

We only focus on HIV here. Other STDs are easier to acquire than HIV, so if you are active sexually outside of your marriage then you ought to regularly have a full STD panel done to make certain you haven't picked up something else. That is the cautious thing to do.   
Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: tony_china on August 13, 2011, 07:51:09 am
It's shame to bother you again. I really did not know she would suck my dick. I only wanted to have a massage, blowjob was not within my expectation.

I will follow your suggestion to take full panel test.

Thank you Andy.

Hi Andy,

Today, I turned to the girl to confirm the situation. She promised she never gave blowjob to others. So if she told the truth, is it mean that I need not to worry about HIV and other STDs?

Please help me.

Tony
Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: jkinatl2 on August 15, 2011, 10:37:29 am
It does not matter if she gave a blow job to others. It does not matter if she had HIV. You were absolutely not at risk for HIV through this incident.

Other STDS are quite possible through receiving oral sex. NOT HIV.

How many times do you need to hear this before you understand?

Andy,

I feel a little bit unconfortable today, I mean tired and weak.

Back to my story, it is totally unexpected. I went to the massage store for relax, but blowjob (just several suckings)was offered without asking, and I checked the calenda, August 13 was Chinese traditional festival of ghost.Is that means something beyond science will happen to me?

The girl said she never provide such service to someone else. Should I belive her?

hoooo.

Please help me to make final confirmation.

Thank you!

Tony

You do not get HIV from getting a blowjob.

Which one of these words do you not understand?

I have reported your post to the moderators. It is obvious that we have been of little use to you.
Title: Re: Is it a risk?
Post by: Ann on August 17, 2011, 07:51:59 am
Tony,

You've been coming here for three years now - in fact your very first question was about blowjobs. Getting a blowjob wasn't a risk then and it isn't a risk now. Never has been, never will be.

I'm giving you a time out you should have had ages ago. Do not attempt to create a new account to get around your time out because if you do, you will be permanently banned.

Ann
