sorry, didn't mean to upset you. just seemed logical to ask since you seemed so unnerved about the whole situation. wasn't judging.
Thank you for your prompt reply. I should clarify that I have battled OCD my entire life which explains my fears over an unlikely scenario such as the one I described. Concise clinical information helps me to rationalize the "true" risk and helps reign in obsessive thoughts.
Just as a side bar on comments such as "IF YOUR SO WORRIED ABOUT THESE THINGS, WHICH IT IS OBVIOUSE YOU ARE, WHY DID YOU DO IT?????",I have this to say. The intention of this website is to provide a venue through which people can have open dialogue with medical professionals and have their medical questions/concerns addressed in a frank and open manner.
It most certainly is NOT for people to be criticized or judged. I am not proud of myself, but I made a mistake and I know that after asking for forgiveness, I will be forgiven. But that is between me and someone much more informed than any of us.
The goal of medicine is to help people, not to impose ones values, cast judgements, or incite guilt. Before you make another comment such as the one you posted, I challenge you to do this. Imagine if your physician tailored your treatment or refused to give you medication because your decisions or even mistakes didn't align with his or her personal values or beliefs.
I understand your desire to point out the obvious, and hopefully it was done so with the desire to help. However, if you truly want to help,I am certain you will have more success helping people change through compassion, encouragement and leading by example instead of chastizing and casting broad, uninformed judgements.
I appolgize for taking up any of the physicians time with this post.
IF YOUR SO WORRIED ABOUT THESE THINGS, WHICH IT IS OBVIOUSE YOU ARE, WHY DID YOU DO IT?????
If you didn't ejaculate and were wearing a condom, it would be unlikely that pregnancy could occur. Anything is possible, but the scenario described makes it unlikely.
Oral sex does carry a risk of STD transmission. If you are having symptoms, it would not be a bad idea to be tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea and other STDs.
If there is still concern, you may want to discuss these questions with your personal physician.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
