hiv from nippling
I am a 19 year old Male .I want to thank you in advance for your help. I'm hoping you can help clear some of my confusion .
Last week i was sucking a girl nipples about 10 second when i tasted something weird and i checked her nipples i didnt find anything ! it could be discharge but now i am very scared thinking what if it was milk or blood ( because i bit her nipples ) and i have cranker sores in my mouth.
1 is this a way to tranmit HIV assuming my partner is hiv+?
2 what was my risk of infection with this girl anyways?
3 should i need a HIV standard test in this case ?
thanks

No adults have ever been known to be infected through breast milk. This is because milk is not highly infectious. Among babies nursed by HIV infected mothers, only about 10-15% catch HIV, and in these it typically takes 6 months -- despite swallowing several ounces of milk every day. What could the risk be from a tiny drop from the sort of exposure you describe? And as I said, it is extremely unlikely your partner had HIV anyway.
Please accept the reassurance and move on.

This will be my last post.
I so scared about the female was lactating and the fluid transmit through my mouth (i have cranker sores),so is nipple sucking on a lactating female carries risk to HIV infection ?Do you know of anyone who has claimed to have had adults breast-milking and then tested positive?

Welcome to the forum.
No worries here. HIV is more rare in women (in the US and other industrialized countries) than you seem to think. The chance your partner had HIV is well under 1 in 1,000. And anyway, sexual transmission of HIV between males and females occurs ONLY if a bare penis (no condom) is inserted inside a partner's vagina, rectum or (very rarely) mouth.
1) Even if she had HIV, the virus cannot be transmitted by mouth-nipple contact.
2) Zero.
3) You don't need any HIV testing on account of this event.

Condoms are the most effective way to prevent HIV and STDs.
PrEP is used by people with high risk to prevent HIV infection.
Can I get HIV from surfaces, like toilet seats?
Can you get HIV from casual contact, like hugging?
Frequency of HIV testing depends on your risk.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) may help prevent HIV infection.
