What do i do?(encounter with sw)

[Recurrent_abuser]

The event happened a few hours ago and i would like the well versed moderators input on what i should do?
I used a sex workers services in India a few hours ago. We started out with making out, kissing upper bodies and hugging. Lasted a few minutes. Then i fingered her, (masturbated her) with both hands. Fingers went deep, and there was plenty of fluid on my fingers after 10 minutes. I then washed my hands with water, albeit lightly and without soap. We did not give each other oral and my unprotected penis didnt rub on her genitals as far as i can remember. After washing, i opened a durex condom, put it on my penis, and penetrated her vaginally from the back. The sex was slow and lasted about 30 seconds. I pulled out, the condom wasnt leaking and didnt seem torn. I removed the condom and wiped my penis with a tissue.

Given the encounter i described above, should i have an std panel test in 3-4 weeks if i do not show any symptoms. By using a condom and refraining from oral sex atleast, i believe i have engaged in atleast some form of responsible safe sex. But i would like to get an opinion here from moderators if i am at risk for any STDs

"Given the encounter i described above, should i have an std panel test in 3-4 weeks if i do not show any symptoms"

No. Although the encounter does some some VERY little risk to it (syphilis and HSV - both from rubbing skin) the time of the encounter is just not enough.

The masturbation of you and her poses no risk of anything.

Thank you for your advice. If I do show any symptoms, I believe I should go get tested in 3-4 weeks right? I understand that anxiety might cause me to over analyze my feelings over the next few days. But given my exposure, are there any legitimate signs I should keep an eye out for?

[Recurrent_abuser]

Ummm, is no testing required the opinion of the other moderators as well?

[Gazsmithster]

Only potential thing is weird lumps, bump or a blister.... but you wont. Well done for using protection. This episode will not give you an STI for the reasons I stated above.

[Recurrent_abuser]

What about the kissing?

[Gazsmithster]

unless the other person has visible sores, no risk at all

[Recurrent_abuser]

Thank you Gazsmithster, I will try to calm my anxiety about this and get counselling for my behaviors

[Recurrent_abuser]

The struggle here for me is accepting that there was no risk and hence no need to test eventhough the encounter is with a csw. This isnt the first time i had done something like this. The last two times only involved short cunnilingus and some body rubbing. I understand that counselling and/or therapy will be needed to stop myself from   putting myself in these situations. But it would help if more people could confirm that testing isnt required and most of my thoughts about STDs i am having are anxiety and paranoia

[Gazsmithster]

Another way to see it is that with sex workers, sex is their job. If word gets out that they may have an STI then they will loose business and in turn they will loose money.

It's clear you have an anxiety disorder and I'm wondering if you have posted on this site before. You have so many answers here that say no risk but you keep questioning. This is not an anxiety forum and our reassuring you actually keeps you stuck in the worry. Take care. You really had virtually no risk whatsoever and are over reacting at this point. Accept the answers given and work with a psychologist or doctor to address the anxiety disorder.

[Recurrent_abuser]

I understand GuitarRox. I will work on my anxiety instead of worrying about STDs from this. Thank you for all your advices
