Worried (four sexual encounters in the past three months)

[noname27800]

Greetings, I am a 26 year old male who has had four sexual encounters with four female escorts over the past three months. Two of these girls I had vaginal intercourse with and the other two was just oral sex. I kissed two of them and one in particular got some of her saliva in my mouth (while my lips were chapped and kissed part of my neck that was cut from shaving). Each time I used a condom (oral and intercourse). And although that is supposed to provide me with some reassurance I cannot help but to worry that I contracted some kind of STD (mostly HIV).

I have read a lot online and have posted on some other forums and they pretty much all said that the only risk for HIV is unprotected vaginal/anal sex. Still, I must add that I am an uncircumcised male, so I don't know if that increases my risk or not. I have heard conflicting information on that, but it worries me nonetheless that I don't fall into the traditional female to male transmission bracket. I am also worried if the condom broke in any of my encounters. Sometimes my cum would shoot up the sides of the condom because there wasn't enough room at the tip. As long as the cum stays in the condom then it should pretty much be intact, right? And the very tip of the penis is the most important part to cover up, right?

I have had some skin rashes and there was a period where I had a cold a couple of weeks ago, but all of this could be attributed to allergies/fall weather change. The rashes come and go and do not stay very long (sometimes not even up to an hour), so they could be from something else.

Idk, I am not just worried about HIV but other STDs as well. Should I test at the three month mark from my last encounter or just try to forget it all and move on with my life?

As you were advised you never had an exposure so none of your symptoms have anything to do with HIV.

I have one last question:

About the rash. I have had red blotches on my forehead and face lately. It's like my face has had this pinkish color lately and my nose is red. The forehead blotches have been consistent. This is also where my hair falls on my face, so it could be from oily skin/acne. I am still bothered by these random rashes/blotches, however, and I am wondering if they could be related to HIV. I have no other "symptoms" other than a cold a couple of weeks ago. The rashes don't itch at all, but it isn't comforting seeing a rash on my face seeing as that is one of the main symptoms of HIV.

I am just wondering if the rash is accompanied by all of the other symptoms. Luckily I haven't had the flu like symptoms or swollen lymph nodes, but I did have a cold a couple of weeks ago and a slight sore throat one morning that went away by afternoon. The rashes have been consistent, though, and bothersome.

I am just worried that something could have went wrong with the condom. Other than that, I understand that symptoms or lack of tell me nothing, but I am just trying to ease my mind. Do HIV symptoms all come at once (rash, flu, etc) and go away at once, or does one show up after the other?  

Thanks.

Is that it, then? Really?

So, it is just intercourse that's the main concern? Kissing? Oral sex? I have heard of the theoretical risk from kissing, that two people with bleeding gums exchanged blood during deep kissing and one of them ended up positive. However, this puts my mind at ease... quite a bit.

I may still get a full STD panel when all is said and done. I have never been this reckless sexually in my entire life. It's been crazy. I am just glad that the condoms never broke or else my already paranoid state of mind would be in a full frenzy. I am also glad that I just had oral sex with the other two girls seeing as penetrative sex is like playing Russian roulette.

I realize now I need to slow down. Maybe sober up for a while.

Thanks.

circumcised or uncircumcised...you had NO risk because "mr willie" was dressed appropriately.  KUDOS for wearing a condom ! ! !

you had NO risk from what you've described.

You don't have an HIV concern.
