During an xxx encounter last week, the condom broke upon the first penetration. I immediately withdrew and changed the condom. What are the chances of getting infected with any STD virus ??. Please need some expert advice.
Congratulations. Of course I'm not surprised, even if you are. You can rely on the result.

Thank you so much for your time and comments!!!
On the subject or urethritis-
Dr. Handsfield,
Just thought I would let you know that my HSV IgG results are in
On a scale of 0.90
HSV-1 IgG Ab - 0.47
HSV-2 IgG Ab - 0.23
I'm guessing this is pretty reliable 13 weeks after possible exposure and herpes wasn't causing my urethritis. Oh well. Just thought I'd share the results
Have a good one
The risk of getting an STD from a single episode of oral sex, even without a condom, is low; and you probably were substantially protected by the condom, even if she applied it orally. Your symptoms are pretty subtle and I suspect are more related to anxiety than anything else. However, it would be reasonable to see a health care provider to be examined and tested for common STDs. For practical purposes, gonorrhea is the main one to be concerned about. However, it is very rare to have gonorrhea without an overt discharge from the penis, usually in pretty large amount, and significant pain on urination. Herpes and syphilis are theoretical but low risk possibilities from oral sex. Chlamydia has never been shown to be transmitted by oral sex; if it happens, it is rare.
1) See above about gonorrhea and chlamydia. No STD causes a change in urine frequency, or in the amount, consistency, or color of semen.
2) As I said above, the STD risk is very low. I don't think you need to be worried and don't recommend testing. But if in doubt, visit your health care provider or your local health department STD clinic for professional evaluation.
3) Are you asking a question or stating that you have a mental problem? Your symptoms might be as much emotional as anything else, but I can't make any particular diagnosis on line. Here too, return to your if you are concerned.
4) All I can say is that it is very unlikely you have any STD. The doctor who already examined you is in a much better position than I am to assess the possiblity of a urethral or prostate problem. They seem unlikely to me, but I can't say more.
Good luck-- HHH, MD
