CDC Reply:
Thank you for your inquiry to CDC-INFO. We apologize for not responding promptly to your e-mail. Our response time has slowed because of a recent high volume of inquiries.

While it is theoretically possible to spread HIV in the way you described, it is extremely unlikely. HIV is spread mostly through sexual intercourse and by sharing needles. The route of the infection is specific bodily fluids-almost always blood, semen, and vaginal fluids, but also breast milk or any bodily fluid that contains blood.

Are you reading the replies or just posting? 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 not transmitted by masturbation blood or no blood or if lube was used as a lubricant during masturbation. You had NO RISK.
