An oral question

A week ago I had unprotected insertive fellation with a female of uknown status. I read in various places on the associated risks of my actions (very, very low to zero). One of the postings mentions a recent AIDS conference held in Mexico last month in which they are now saying that the risks for unprotected insertive fellatio are higher. Is that the case? Has there been any documented cases of individuals getting HIV through insertive fellatio?

My last question question, do I need to get tested because of this incident or just move on?

Thank you for all that you do...

Look at the dates before you pull up and respond to OLD threads. They were given the correct information. NO RISK.

I personally believe that both oral-receptive as well as oral-active (the insertive partner) are extremely low risk.  I know of way too many people who should have contracted HIV from positive partners from this particular practice, myself included, and yet they (and myself) did not.  I have had this scary scenario happen to me more than a few times; the other partner either lied about their status or truly did not know of their positive status until after the sexual encounter.  Either way, that was about 5 years ago; I am negative.  Of course, I never have any kind of sexual contact if I have a pimple or something down there, nor will I perform this on another partner if I have a canker sore, for example.  But this is just common sense.  Don't make yourself sick over excessive worry, like I used to do; life is way too short to keep beating yourself up over stuff like this.

Sorry for the confusion, receptive carries the higher risk. Either way, you dont need testing.

Yes insertive carries a higher risk because you are exposing yourself to pre-*** and vaginal secrections. Still, your risk is very low. I believe it is 1/20000 for receptive and 1/10000 for insertive. I dont believe you need testing.
