Title: Hand job with contact of vaginal fluid
Post by: Tim@June on February 23, 2021, 08:54:57 am
Hi hope to get some clarity.

Can you contract hiv by female finger containing vaginal fluid after she was playing with clitoris. Then using her same hand giving a handjob.
Is it possible to get vaginal fluid then into urethra and transmission of HIV?
I also took a Biosure test at 9weeks after exposure. Is it necessary?

Thank you

Hiya,

What you posted is no HIV risk to you whatsoever.

Here's what you need to know to avoid HIV infection:
Use condoms for anal or vaginal intercourse, correctly and consistently, every time, no exceptions. Consider talking to your health care provider about taking PrEP going forward as an additional layer of HIV protection.

Keep in mind that some sexual practices which may be described as ‘safe’ in terms of HIV transmission might still pose a risk for transmission of other STI's, so please do get fully tested regularly and at least yearly for all STI's including but not limited to HIV and test more frequently if unprotected intercourse occurs

Also, note that it is possible to have an STI and show no signs or symptoms and the only way of knowing is by testing.

Kind regards

Jim

Thank you somuch for quick response.
You think test at 9 weeks not showing antibodies is conclusive if it might change at 12weeks?
Thanks again, just keen on your oppion?

Hiya.

Considering you had no risk from what you posted a test at any week or not testing at all is already conclusive.

I'm not willing to pretend what you posted needs any HIV testing so if you had a real exposure you have not mentioned now would be a good time to share.
