Can I get HIV or other STDs (STDs without symptoms) through receiving oral sex?

[stupid92]

Ok so this is what happened. I have never had any proper sexual encounters throughout my life before this, just simple make outs or a hand job once. But lately I began to feel sexually frustrated still due to my religious beliefs and my love for my fiance and future wife I did not plan to do anything about it but this one day while returning from my office I found this transgender at the side of the road and what followed next was just shameful. I got that tranny in and received an unprotected blowjob which lasted 4-5 minutes. Nothing else happened and i dropped her off. There was no blood on my penis nor any bruises whatsoever although i cant be sure about the oral hygiene of the tranny. An overwhelming sense of guilt and worry has engulfed me since then. Its been more than 5 days since the incidents and there are no symptoms yet. I need to know what possible risks do I face and when can i get tested to be sure? Due to conservative nature of the society I live in i can not discuss it with any one here so its killing me from the inside! everyone is asking me what is wrong with me these days but i can not answer them! i can not sleep or eat or work properly! My whole life has gone upside thinking what if test positive for HIV! Please share your knowledge and suggest a future course of action! looking forward to your replies

Hello, symptoms are not used to diagnose HIV and as stated accurately by our members, oral sex is not a risk for HIV.  There has been no legitimate documented case of transmission in this manner.  As your question has been fully answered, we are now closing this discussion.  We wish you the best of health.

Thank you very much for your reply it is very reassuring. If I manage to survive this HIV scare I promise myself to live a totally monogamous life from here on. There is just one thing that bothers me that this is the only forum that takes the stance that oral sex is zero or no risk! all others claim it to be low risk or 1 in 20,000 or something like that. What is the reason for that? Secondly can I wait 6 weeks to get test for all my STIs at once or will it complicate a possible case of NGU or Gonorrhoea? As I will have to arrange for the tests very discreetly and can not let any of my family members know it will be difficult to do them many times over.

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV and you do NOT need to test.

On the other hand, oral sex can be a risk for other STI's (sexually transmitted infections) like gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia etc.

I would advise that you test for these at the correct window periods.

"......although i cant be sure about the oral hygiene of the tranny."

Hygiene has nothing to do with HIV so you are letting your anxiety overcome your reasoning because you are naturally afraid due to previous misconceptions that it can be spread by oral.
Now that you have the facts, it is time to enjoy your life instead of inventing fearsome HIV images that can't happen but like Ruby says get the other STD check done just in case. Use safe sex practices until the tests are over then you won't have to agonize over spreading it.

So I have my first symptoms white tongue and dry throat. Can they be in no way related to HIV? Only gnhorrea?
