Doctor! 2 days after encounter, what's my risk??

[Uniquedude]

I've had a protected vaginal sex with a sex worker, and she said she was in the business for a week, but it already sounded like she had lots of clients.She also told me that she is being tested every week, and they are all good. Anyway, I'm so worried that my anxiety can take my life very easily. Here are my questions:

1. Is my risk high?

2. Do I need to go get tested for STD and HIV?

3. Am I safe to move on without ever need to think about this encounter?

I suggest you take your questions over to the HIV forum because it seems that you are worried about HIV first and foremost. Having said that, if you properly wore a condom your risk of contracting HIV from that encounter is near zero. Any expert will tell you the same. If you don't believe me, check out CDC's website. However, that's not to say that you were protected from ALL STD's. A Properly worn condom will protect you from Herpes but may not from some of the other STD's or STI's (HPV). Fortunately, all other STD's are cureable and HPV is way too common among men to worry about.

Good response above.

I also suggest you refrain from having sex with sex workers, since the anxiety is obviously causing you to have a meltdown. Millions of people frequent sex workers, and they don't end up on STD forums wondering if their life is going to end because of it. Calm down, for pete's sake.
