Exposure to Receptive Oral Multiple times and vaginal fluid on towel
Dear folks,
In the last six months or so, I have had multiple exposures to unprotected oral sex (was the receiving partner) with lots of saliva from female partners with unknown status, along with nipple biting and vagina sucking. In one case, the lady washed off her vagina with a towel and then used the same towel to wipe my penis off after few minutes. How risky are the situations (oral and exposure to vaginal fluid thru towel) and do i need to get tested? Although I keep reading low to zero risks for oral, but still requesting your validation for both clarity and peace of mind. Is there some threshold to the saliva for inhibition and also same for exposure of the virus to air (in terms of quantity and duration respectively). Please advise. Thanks.

This answers all of your HIV questions, and if you can think of any more just reread about the 3. You had zero risk therefore testing is irrelevant to your situation because you had zero risk. HIV is a fragile virus, which is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead.
Only 3 adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal with a penis
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex with a penis
3. sharing needles that you inject with.
The only way to get HIV is if you did one of the 3. The situation you describe is a long way from any of these 3.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. Doctors have calculated the risk from what you describe to be less than that of being hit by a meteor, therefore no one will get HIV from what you did in the next 40 years of your life either. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established, so no detail that you can add to your encounter will change it from zero risk.
We rely on the opinions of expert docs and don't pay attention to whatever you found on the internet. Some conservative sites refer to a risk that has never manifested, so that is a pretty useless guideline, considering you can get E Coli from a burger but those sites don't tell you to test for that after every meal.

Same answer to many questions simply ur pasting the same message im bit confused with ur answers are you sure with ur answers
The reason it's the same message is because it's the same evaluation - NO RISK. There's no need for us to re-type it from scratch every time someone who has had no risk asks their question.
That's not confusing at all as the risks do not change.

i see no potential risk in what you described here .... however we advice any sexually active person to get tested annually or biannually

There is no need to test annually when you have no risk. That makes no sense.
