Another question, do you know if anal grinding is a risk for hiv? Or is only full penetration a risk?
Because most people don't understand that the saliva will render the virus inactive BEFORE it reaches the gut.
Why does everyone panic? Because everyone is not getting themselves educated about HIV. You're the exception. You came to us with your fears and now those fears are gone because you got educated.
Just think how education would stop all the panic.........to say nothing of stopping HIV in it's tracks.

You made my day Ruby, I really thank you for your help!
When Hiv can not be tramsmitted by swallowing sperm, why does everyone who knows that have panic?
The line above should read......."There HAS never been a proven case of anyone contracting HIV from oral....." Sorry.

Oral sex is not a risk for HIV because human saliva contains bacteria and enzymes that render the virus inactive. Exposure to air also renders it inactive and the mouth contains a lot of air. The virus would be inactive before it reaches your stomach.
You do not NEED to test, but as I said in my original response that due to your continuing anxiety, I would advise you to test for peace of mind. There had NEVER been a proven case of anyone having contracted HIV from oral sex. You will not be the first.
Please stay off the symptoms sites! If you have questions or concerns, contact us.
Thanks for your fast and clear answer!
But I read many times, that Hiv is able go be transmitted via swallowing sperm?
So I don't need to get tested?
Oral sex is not a risk for HIV but it can be a risk for other STD's.
It has been nearly 2 months since this encounter and you appear very anxious about your symptoms, real or imagine, so I would advise you to have an STD panel done for peace of mind.
It is recommended that anyone who engages in oral sex have an STD panel done every three months for prevention.
