Hello everyone,
I had protected vaginal intercourse with a sex worker yesterday. Because it was taking time for me to ejaculate, she removed the condom (with her bare hand), applied some lube on my penis and gave me a handjob. My concern is that her hand must have come into contact with her vaginal fluids when she removed the condom; she then gave me a handjob with the same hand. Does this pose a risk for HIV (assuming she might have been HIV positive)? Please let me know.
Thank you very much in advance.
HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
