Had protected oral and anal bi here but still very worried!! No fluid exchanged that I know off condom didn't fail bit still my conscience won't let me rest easy. Should I. Be worried I have HIV his semen never touched me but he fingered my anus before he penetrated
Unlikely to have gotten any stds, if you had protection, small chance, but unlikely. Hiv generally takes 6 weeks to show positive antibody test.
Was the person you were with HIV positive??? Or do you know of any STD's they might have??
HIV will only infect you if the blood, semen, vaginal fluids, or breast milk of someone who is infected enters your body through your mouth, vagina, anus, tip of your penis, or breaks in your skin: like cuts or scrapes, etc.
Even if you go to your health clinic and get an HIV/STD blood test - you have to wait a few weeks for results to come in.. and even so.. this type of infection could take as long as up to 6 months to show/infect your blood.
STDs is different as the infection comes on like a cold or flu.. you just get symptoms right away.. and STILL some STDs don't even have symptoms on some people.. but HIV/AIDS doesn't work that way. It takes longer to show/develop.
Go get tested. You should at least once a year any ways whether you're having sex or not.
And I'm no one to judge 'cause I've done my dirty in my day - but just be careful who you sleep with. It IS OK to be picky as hell!! And just protect yourself at all times.. no glove no love my friend.
