What are the chances of getting HIV from fingering a woman and then masterbating?

by cynikal, Jun 15, 2008 08:52PM
Recently I an experience with a sex worker. After and while fingering her I was touching my penis (masturbating). I am not sure if I got her secretions on me. Afterwards she told me that I may have scratched her because she noticed a small amount of blood when she went to the bathroom. I will not elaborate on what else happened as I already understand the risk. What is the risk for the behavior that I just described?

hiv does not remain active outside it's host.  nothing you did put you at risk for contracting hiv.

Lizzie Lou is correct.. You have an absolute zero chance of getting infected from what you just described. ZERO.

does the fact that there may have been a small amount of blood in her secretions change the chances of transmission?

No ! it doesn't. HIV, regardless of its host infectious fluid, can not penetrate through intact skin. There has to be a mucus membrane or an open wound for its entry.

In sexual routes, unprotected vaginal and anal sex remain the root cause of transmission.
