i am worried i am infect ! pls help !!!

[chekopek]

i am a male and i had unprotected vagina intercourse 3 times, received a fellatio once from her.

what are the odds of getting infected?

i am 4 weeks post exposure during my first encounter.

i had a mild fever (on and off for 5 days) 1 week post exposure and it was cured by few tablets of paracetamol.

had some flu 3 weeks post exposure and some coughs. nausea at 4 weeks post exposure.

i have read that these are the symptoms of HIV and i am freaking it.

is there any way to test my blood before the 3 months period? i am really depressed right now. pls help !

"No HIV is not transmitted via saliva. Your own saliva actually contains over a dozen proteins and enzymes and inhibits HIV rendering it inactive. "
"If you are going to have ARS symptoms then they all come at one and all go at once."

Some of my questions like ARS symptoms and saliva were answered here. Thanks a lot.

the thing is i usually brushed my teeth before kissing. i am a hygiene freak.

so i just need to know does HIV transmit via saliva ?

Your on and off bleeding gums when you brush your teeth are irrelvant and do not increase the risk at all.

You have nothing to worry about.  It is ZERO risk.

thanks for quick reply.


i forgot to mention that i might have bleeding gums when french kissing her.

almost most of the time when i brush i will bleed as i have sensitive gums.

does HIV transmit via saliva ?

hi zamzam, please clarify my questions that I have posted as well. Thank you  for your kind words.

I do not give out odds when it comes to HIV the only thing that I will say in your favour is that it is harder to pass from female to male.

1 week after exposure is too early for ARS, this generally occurs if it is going to 2-4 weeks post exposure.

If you are going to have ARS symptoms then they all come at one and all go at once.  That said though when it comes to HIV symptoms are totally irrelevant, it is only testing that matters.

You have had a risk and need to test, you can do so at 6 weeks for a very good indication and at 12/13 weeks for a conclusive result.  In the meantime try and stay productively bust while you wait to test.
