Herpes transmission risk

[Jul2014]

I am wondering if someone can tell me what the herpes transmission risk would be between 2 males with an attempt at anal sex. About 6 weeks ago I experimented with a transexual CSW out of curiosity. I received protected ORAL and attempted to give protected anal to them but could not stay hard which resulted in no actual penetration. I tried thrusting a few times but I was just to nervous to get it to work. My penis was covered the entire time by a condom.

I did not see any lesions anywhere on this person, I do not think there was a tremendous amount of friction either. To date, I do not feel like I have seen any herpes blisters on the shaft of my penis (which was covered anyway). What is the real risk from this one encounter? Where would these lesions most likely show up on my from this encounter? I typically get pimples on my pubic mound but have always gotten them and the ones I have now do not look any different to me. Do not look like blisters or anything.

What is the actual likelihood that this encounter resulting in anything?

What your describing dose not at all appear as a herpes outbreak, If your concerned have a blood test as to late to swab them.

I know that you normally tell people that the penis and the pubic mound are where herpes lesions would normally show up but I was wondering if you think that is true from my situation. I have 2 small pimple like bumps on my pubic mound (underneath a good amount of hair), which have been there for a few weeks i think. They do not hurt and nothing appears to be happening with them. Not sure if they are ingrown hairs or something as I am not sure what those would look like or how long those would be there for. I am close to 7 weeks past exposure and I do not think my pubic mound would have had a lot of contact with my exposure, if any since this was attempted a*** sex. I do not think I have Herpes and am trying not to convince myself that i do.

If nothing touched except the condom then you had no risk for any std. There needs to be skin contact.

Sorry to ask a dumb question but how are we defining genital area? My penis never touched their penis or balls, in fact their genitals never touched me at all, including my hand. The only contact was me trying to attempt anal sex so there was probably skin contact from my upper legs on their ***, more from bumping as I tried to thrust, not so much from grinding. The whole thing lasted 30 seconds at most.

I do not think I have had any lesions, as I said, but I have been experiencing sore lower back, and pain in my legs and behind my knees. Not sure if I have swollen lymph nodes in my groin. I think i read that these are symptoms of an outbreak but do not see any lesions anywhere. Also, no tingling or painful places that would lead me to believe a lesion is coming.

I get cold sores on my lip so I know how that feels and I have not noticed that in my genital region.

Hi, if no part of you genital area was exposed to genital skin or lips, theres no risk at all. There needs to be direct skin contact with rubbing to force the virus into the nerve.
