Protected Sex !! CSW used some Egg shaped ovule

[paulryan1204]

I had a protected vaginal encounter with a high end escort using an ultra thin durex condom.

She had inserted some egg shaped ovule in her vagina which she said was to prevent pregnancy and infections incase the condom breaks.

That created a foul smell.

Nevertheless my condom did not break and i also tested it with filling water.

Is there a chance the condom got corroded by the egg shaped ovule tablet she inserted in the vagina leading to condom corrosion and HIV transmission?

I read that oil based lubricants and spermicides create holes in condoms for hiv to pass through?

Am i at RISK?

As already mentioned, this is not an anxiety forum. You clearly require intense therapy with a mental health professional to help you overcome your irrational phobia of HIV. There is nothing more that can be done by anyone here to help you.

So use of ultra thin durex condoms coupled with the escort using some sort of spermicide ovule tablet damaging/corroding the condom allowing the hiv to pass through is something i should not be worried at all about right considering my condom never broke?

Our members  have answered your questions regarding condom use, and whether HIV could pass through, and have told you this isn't possible.  There isn't anything our members can add regarding your no-risk event.

No, none of the possibilities you mentioned are plausible, at all.

If the egg had "corroded" the condom, it would have broken.  If the lubricant had weakened the condom, it would have broken.  There is no such thing as small holes that allow HIV to pass through.    If the condom did not break wide open - and you WOULD notice - you were completely protected from HIV.

You had zero risk from this event and you should forget about it and move on - obviously, no testing is recommended since you didn't have a risk.

Ok i made the mistake of going to a reputed pathology lab and got an HIV RNA test done...now i m scared to death after reading that this test has a high rate of FALSE POSITIVES...i cant imagine how will i handle my anxiety if i get a false positive...please help me someone how should i handle myself..

This is an HIV prevention forum, not an anxiety support forum.  You created your own anxiety by going to get a test that you didn't need, for a disease you had no risk for.   If you have anxiety, then you should speak to a professional counselor who can help with your anxiety and your inability to accept the fact that you had no risk for HIV.

Yes self inflicted pain...is there an hiv anxiety forum i can goto?

[AnxiousNoMore]

No, just a general anxiety forum and they aren't going to be able to provide the diagnostic help you need for this mental health issue (hopefully just a temporary issue) because only a therapist can do that. You need to do what Curfew said, see a professional for one on one because your pain is so great that it is worth it if a therapist can help you get back to a normal life.

I have been trying to get over this HIV OCD since 12 years now....but all in vain...i have tested after every protected encounter...i was tested with an hiv duo even before this encounter....and here i am testing for a zero risk encounter and that too with an HIV RNA Test....the fear of a false positive is eating me up more than the fear of the encounter which was no risk...

[AnxiousNoMore]

Do I understand correctly that you have never gone to therapy during this 12 years of pain?

[paulryan1204]

I have several times, was on meds as well...all this when i was single...now i m married...and have a cute son....may be thats why the guilt and anxiety both acting up....my compulsion in the ocd cycle is an hiv test....without doing a test i have the inability to feel better....which is what i hate the most....specific to this encounter whats worrying me the most is the use of ultra thin durex condoms coupled with the escort using some sort of spermicide ovule tablet...my ocd keeps repeating that the thin condom was compromised by the spermicide and i contracted hiv...
