feel like dying... scared..

[worried2704]

Dear wonderful people,

i received protected oral sex only (2 condoms) with a prostitute almost a month ago. Assuming she is hiv+, what are my chances getting infected. I'm in a steady relationship and plan to get married soon... Im worried thay i will get hiv with this act and pass it to my partner... I feel my life is ruined and almost kill myself yesterday... Please help me to overcome this... Please...

we've already discussed your lack of risk from this.

[worried2704]

Dear Grace,

From your vast experience about HIV and std, do you think there is a any percentage of infection if the person who gave me oral is HIV positive and have bleeding gums/cuts in her mouth.

And how if the condom provided by the prostitute is the low grade condom which not 100% safe (even I request 2 condoms from her)

[gracefromHHP]

no reason to change anything with your regular partner. you weren't at risk for a std from this.

Thank you Grace, I can have sex with my partner as usual and need not to proceeds with test right? Once again, thank you everyone for helping me.

[gracefromHHP]

you don't need any std testing at all from this. don't confuse your guilt over what you did with any real risk. the provider who told you otherwise was either under educated about std's or was not believing you when you said it was protected.

you never, ever need to use 2 condoms, they weren't made to be used that way and it actually increases their risk of breaking when you use 2 at a time.

This is the only encounter that I had... Protected oral sex (2 condoms) with a prostitute... Not more than that... and I regret every single second of it... Scared of HIV... Thank you life360. May God bless you...

Testing is up to you. If this was the only incident you had and you just layed there or sat there with your penis out and wore 2 comdoms and she did not rub and grind your naked body with her naked body, espceially in the gential areas, then no, your were not a risk for contracting anything.
All std's need a specific enviornment to be at risk for contracting and even if you met the requirements dose not mean you could still catch anything. Thats why the word risk is used. Even though your exposed doesnot mean you will catch anything.

[worried2704]

The reason I'm asking for the test is due to one of the doc that I visit insist me to do a complete check up for std and hiv after 2 months of the exposure and another hiv test at 6 months to get the conclusive result. As chances for me to get any of the std like herpes and HIV is still there... I was totally freaked out..

[worried2704]

Thank you very much life360, do you think I should proceed with test for reassurance? Do you think I will get conclusive result at 25th day for HIV and STDs... I just don't want to infect my partner. Thank you very much for helping... God bless you...

[worried2704]

Dear life360,

Even if she is HIV+? I cannot accept the stupidity that I have made. Please tell me that I will be alright... I'm going to take std test tomorrow. Can you tell me the accuracy of all the std and HIV test at 25th day?

I'm under xanax and stillnox to control my anxiety... I'm avoiding sex with my partner too... I just don't want to pass anything to her... God bless you for helping me..

Hi and welcome. From what you describe you were not at risk for contracting HIV what so ever. It is not transmitted that way and on top of that you used 2 condoms.
