Could I of contracted HIV from capetown prostitute ?
3 years ago me and few mates were in Cape Town and got very drunk and decided to go to a brothel. It was very clean and was showered before engaging in sexual activity. I was made to wear a condom for everything including oral sex and I'm not sure if I even had intercourse as was too drunk to peform and if I did it was brief and I was wearing protection. I cant remember if I performed oral sex on her but just wondering what the chances are of my contracting HIV ? Been worried and scared to go for a check both my mates did and they got the all clear
HIV is instantly inactivated in air, and also in saliva so you had no risk from oral anyway, but the condom also protected you from vaginal. Because of the inactivation, it doesn't matter how clean the place or you or she was because only sex risks are unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal.
Condom doesn't protect against std though so you might visit the std forum for info.
