Frottage, please help me
« on: February 20, 2011, 08:38:35 pm »
Hi, Every one
I had a risky exposure about 2 weeks ago, i went to a massage shop and received frottage from a girl. She rubbed her vagina against my penis  but I stopped it when the head of my penis went into her vagina for maybe 2 seconds. Am I at risk here?
I’m really scared, any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Frontage is not a risk of HIV transmission.

As long as you are certain it was only for "two seconds" then I don't see that as being a credible risk nor is there any need for testing.

Frottage or rubbing is not a risk for HIV transmission. The only confirmed risks for the sexual tranmission of HIV are unprotected vaginal and anal intercourse. Use condoms everytime for those activities and you will be well protected. It really is that simple.

Based on what you have reported I don't see testing as necessary unless you need the inevitable negative result just for your own peace of mind.

In the future avoid any doubts by always keeping condoms handy and using them when intercourse maybe about to become an issue.

Thanks for your reply.
I have one last question. If I "dipping" my penis in her vagina more than 2 seconds, is it a high risk?. 
I will test after 6 weeks for my peace of mind.

life,

You have already been told that your two second dip is not a high risk situation.

I fully expect your test result to be negative.

Your negative test result is not a surprise to us.

Personally I don't see that further testing is necessary since but if you are going to continue to worry, then get a test at 13 weeks, collect another negative result and get on with your life.

The average time to seroconversion is 22 days. All but the very smallest number of those who are going to seroconvert will do so within 4-6 weeks after an exposure. Given the very low level of your possible risk I don't expect anything more than another negative result if you decide to re-test.
