hiv important query
about 10 days i engaged in cunnilingus to a prostitute with unknwn status..i am pretty much convinced that there is extremely low chances of getting hiv BUT WHAT BOTHERS ME NOW IS that before wearing condom i spit on my penis to lubricate it..though there was no vaginal discharge..but is there a chance that i might acquire the infection this way(from vagina--->mouth--->on my penis)..i am really worried as there is no answer for this question anywhere...
i know that cunnilingus has not causd any cases of hiv so far..what kills me is whether hiv can be transferred this way or not..basically its the same as indirect contact..or is a direct contact to vaginal fluid required

you didn't have any risk at all.saliva has enzymes which destroy HIV virus.there have never been any documented case of contracting HIV via cunnilingus.you do not need a test at all.
Saliva carries a pretty low viral load so its unlikely that you've contracted it that way.. since you're obviously v. concerned the best thing you can do is to wait a couple of months and get tested so you can put your mind at ease.
