Relax. This doesn't change my assessment of your risk or my advice. Semen swallowing doesn't increase the risk of STDs compared with not swallowing. Even if it did, it wouldn't make any difference. How risky the CSW is with other partners doesn't matter when your own exposures carried almost no risk of disease transmission. Even if she had HIV, you really were not at signficant risk. Your throat feeling is most likely stress or a garden variety cold virus. But as I said above, it's fine with me if you want to be tested for additional reassurance.
Doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
I also forgot to mention something else, which is that after I had my orgasm, the woman had ingested my semen. If she does this often with other clients, isn't she at high risk?
Sorry, I'm just worried because there's a little sore in the back of my mouth. It doesn't hurt at all. I just feel it's there. It could be coming from stress because I've been very busy at work and I drink a lot of coffee, but now that I think about the fact she had swallowed, I feel more worried. Thank you again in advance.
Kissing is zero risk for any STD. (If kissing can transmit an infection, without other forms of sexual contact, then that infection is not classified as an STD.) Oral-genital sex is generaly low risk, even unprotected -- and of all oral sex, the risk for the oral partner in cunnilingus is lowest of all. The only realistic risk is for oral herpes due to HSV-2, and a theoretical risk for syphilis and oral HPV -- but the latter are extremely rare. There is somewhat higher risk for receiving unprotected fellatio, primarily gonorrhea, herpes due to HSV-1, and nongonococcal urethritis (NGU). But still quite low.
On top of all this, from your description, it seems you can be pretty sure the CSWs in that brothel are unlikely to be infected with the standard STDs that are routinely detected by screening tests, i.e. gonorrhea, chlamyida, syphilis, and HIV.
As to the follow-up comments below, the addtitional information makes no difference. That you didnt' see any obvious signs of infection doesn't help, since most STDs cause no visible abnormality in women's external genitals.
Bottom line: You do not need STD/HIV testing on account of this exposure, assuming you remain free of symptoms in the 1-2 weeks after the event. However, if you remain nervous despite this reassurance, you could be seen for exam and testing. A gonorrhea test of your urine and throat would be valid any time; blood tests for syphilis or HIV would need to wait until 6 weeks have passed. I recommend against HSV testing and there is no point in chlamydia testing, since chlamydia is virtually never acquired by either fellatio or cunnilingus.
I hope this helps. Best wishes-- HHH, MD
Doctor,
I forgot to mention that her vagina and the area around it looked healthy without any discharge or bumps or anything, but I can't be 100% sure because the light was dim.
I don't know about the inside of her mouth because I didn't look.
Thanks again
