Lambskin Ignorance

Hello,

Yesterday I had protected sex with a sex worker. Or so I thought. We used a condom that I had bought and only when I returned home I realized that they were Lambskin condoms. So I read up on them and now am very much worried. Does this classify as a high risk encounter in your opinion? Would this warrant PEP?

Thank you for your great work!

Had you tried to use a lambskin condom with a sex worker you wouldn't have had vaginal sex.

I just realized that I forgot all the important information in my previous post.

Yesterday I (male) had protected oral and vaginal sex (nothing rough) with a sex worker (female). Or I thought it was protected. We used a condom that I had bought and only when I returned home I realized that they were Lambskin condoms. So I read up on them and now am very much worried. Does this classify as a high risk encounter in your opinion? Would this warrant PEP?

Thank you for your great work!
