worried also, please reply soon....

OK,high risk(as i think) woman gave me unprotected blow job, i know that there is a very small chance to get infected orally but right before me she gave unprotected blow job to another man(high risk man also as i  think) and she swallowed his sperm. so assuming some of his sperm was still in her mouth when she gave me oral is that possible to get infection if there is an infection in his sperm?

[TheSaluki]

OK.........there is really almost no risk from this incident.  I think people are becoming confused with the idea of designating something as "virtually" no risk.  You see, blowjobs are about as low on the spectrum of risk as you can go, besides "NO RISK" activitites.  There is always a "theoretical" risk involved with blowjobs, but there is also a "theroretical" risk of you being eaten alive by a wild mountain lion at exactly 3:30 PM today too.  See my point?  Extremely not likely, you didnt get HIV from this experience.

Saluki, I don't know where you've sprang from, but your information is incorrect and I am asking you to refrain from giving advice on this forum.

Mike,

Getting a blowjob is NOT a risk for hiv infection. Not one person in the entire history of this pandemic has become infected with hiv through getting a blowjob and you will not be the first.

Bottom line: You did not get HIV from this incident.  I'd like to take a moment to post a few excerpts from various websites backing up my information.  This latest responder to your question, while basically correct, failed to back up any of her information with scientific fact.

What Are the Risks of Oral Sex?

Oral to Penis Contact
Theoretical Risk:Performing oral sex or "giving a blow job" carries a theoretical risk of transmission for the receptive partner because infected pre-ejaculate ("pre-cum") fluid or semen (cum) can get into the mouth. Any open sores, cold sores, etc. can be a route by which the virus or bacteria can enter the bloodstream and infect. For the insertive partner there is a theoretical risk of infection because infected blood from a partner's bleeding gums or an open sore could come in contact with a scratch, cut, or sore on the penis.

This is a quote from THIS OWN VERY WEBSITE!!

 Even more importantly, there hasn't been a single documented case of HIV transmission to an insertive partner (the person being "sucked") during unprotected oral sex, either among MSM or heterosexuals.

Is insertive oral sex a possible route of HIV transmission? Yes. But is it a documented risk? Absolutely not.


So, as you see.........IN THEORY, you could have been exposed to HIV.  Did you contract it? NO!

[TheSaluki]

I would....in addition, just like to reiterate...............I didn't post this information with an intent to confuse.  For all intents and purposes Mike, you did not get HIV from this incident, and if you did the same thing again 400 times, you probably wouldnt either.  My point is, there is, while alarmingly small, a fraction of risk.  I think people are here, out of convienience, just telling people there is ABSOLUTELY NO RISK in activities that carry a, albeit small, risk.  It's easier to do that than to take time to explain the accurate level of risk involved.  Instead of telling someone there is a .000000000000000001 risk of contracting HIV, they'd rather save time and say NO RISK, put your mind at ease so they dont have to waste time explaining it to you.  Well, small or not, some people would choose to not take ANY risk, no matter how miniscule, and deserve accurate info to make that decision.  Thank you. 

[Ann]

Saluki,

The reason I objected to the advice you gave was for precisely the reason that it would only serve to confuse. If you want to give advice on this forum, I would suggest you study the style and content of the advice given here first before you post further. We aim to give consistent advice on this forum. Please read through the posting guidelines in the Welcome Thread as well. 

Thank you for your cooperation.

Mike, sorry for the hijack.

Thank you for your reply guys, i have heard that there is no risk from oral sex too but i think you didn't pay attention to one detail, right before she gave me a blow job she did it for other guy. Does it play any role in this case?
 And are there any STDs at all that a man can get from receiving oral or from giving oral?
Thank you.

[Ann]

Mike,

No, it does not make one bit of difference that you were second in line. (I saw that detail the first time.)

If you'd like to learn more about other STIs, please check out the inSPOT website.

I went to HIV testing center and had a saliva rapid test, it was negative. I had a handshake with a person who is doing tests at the center ( i know she has AIDS).
After leaving the center i noticed a cut on my hand, i don;t know if that woman cut me accidentally with her nail or she might have something in her hand, i'm not really sure right now. What scares me here is that i know she has AIDS and i was in HIV testing center , so how likely is to get infected this way?

[RapidRod]

Since you need to gather a lot of knowledge on HIV and it's transmission, go to the "Welcome" thread and follow the link on transmission. Then that will be the end of the thread.

[ACinKC]

Keep your "unfounded" questions in your original thread.

You can't KNOW someone has HIV by looking at them and its RUDE to come her proclaiming it.  Even if you do have personal knowledge its STILL rude, possibly more so.

Regardless, read the lessons, you have a better chance of traveling at the speed of light on your way to work than contracting HIV like this.  REALLY!

[mike123]

ACinKC, i didn't just assume she had HIV, i found out about that from our conversation with her. Didn't want to be rude at all.

[ACinKC]

You dont get HIV from shaking someones hand.  Read the lessons.

[Andy Velez]

Mike, I've merged your threads. Please keep all of your questions and comments in this one thread. It helps readers to follow the conversation.

You're wandering around in the messy world of what ifs about HIV transmission. HIV is transmitted through very particular ways. (Re)read the lesson on transmission as has been suggested to you. There's absolutely basis in HIV science for you to be concerned about this hand shake incident. So cut it out with this nervous cuckoo stuff about infection. Really. 

[mike123]

Thanks Andy.
