Oral and Hiv

[Hammersteel]

On 08/24/13, I met this girl on a chat line.  We decided to meet in person, so I drove to her house and we talked outside of her residence.  She decided to give me a BJ for less than a minute. I did not ejaculate. I decided to masterbate instead. I asked her if she was disease free and stated yes.  I tested her by telling her that I was going to cum inside her mouth and she replied no.  She was about 28 years old with a nice body and breast job.  When I was driving home she confessed to me that she's a TS and that's when I became concern.  I was happy that I did not have sex with her.  She further stated that she does not like gay men only straight.  She further stated that she plans to do the full operation.  

1.  Do I need to get tested
2. Can I have sex with my wife without protection

Welcome to our Forum. As you were already told on the HIV Prevention Community site, there is no risk of HIV infection from the exposure you describe, no matter who your partner was.  Your partner indicated that she did not have HIV and most people do tell the truth.  More importantly, there are no instances in which HIV has been acquired from receipt of oral sex.  There is no reason for concern and no medical  reason for HIV testing related to this encounter.

Just for completeness sake, I will point out that there is a small risk for infection with other STIs, specifically NGU (non-gonococcal urethritis) and gonorrhea.  The risk of these infections is low but not zero.  When person get them, they typically do develop symptoms (a penile discharge or burning on urination).  If you choose to seek testing, both of these are easily tested for by an experienced clinician.

I hope my comments are helpful. EWH

Read my answer.  That she was transexual makes no difference- still no risk.  eWH

Even though he/she was a TS
