Putting condom in wrong site

Dear Guests,

I actually want to ask that i was putting condom wrong at first and then changed the side. So i took anal intercourse.
Do you know what is the possibility to get STD from that type. Before taking anal intercourse , i made oral sex but first i put condom in a wrong way and i changed the way ?

Thanks a lot?

Ditto what Vance said.

I already stated TWICE that there's no practical worry here nor a need for a test.  That's my take on it.

Hey Thanks,

I was the receiver of anal sex, and if there remained any precum on the head of the condom and if this person is infected with HIV, you say that there is little chance to get STD , am i right? Because i know that hiv is fragile and before anal intercourse i gave oral sex.

Thus, Do you think that I have to worry about it. :OF course I Will be tested but, just could you please tell me?

Thanks a lot

I agree that you really have little to worry about.

THEORETICALLY, if you used a condom, immediately withdrew, flipped the condom and put it back on, there would be a slight risk, mainly because in order for condoms to be effective, there has to be CORRECT and consistent use.  What's confusing about your posts is that you aren't clear whether you were the giver or receiver of anal sex, you sort of go back and forth in your explanation.

Do I think this is something you need to test for HIV?  No, not at all.  

Just use condoms correctly and you'll be fine.  MOST condoms these days don't have a "right or wrong" way to put them on, they will slide down the penis regardless of which side you start with.  If you put a condom on and it's ON, there's no need to adjust it or remove it and reapply it.  If you ever have a reason to remove a condom, best practice is to start over with a new one.  Don't reuse condoms.

Don't worry about this, just practice proper condom use from here on out.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child

Hey,
thanks again.

The question is that putting condom firstly as wrong side and later on flipping it and  after let it turned back, having sex with true side, and taking anal intercourse is risk for HIV. ?

Thanks a lot
