Thank you for your responses. In regards to number 4, yes I did mean HPV.
I have been feeling alot of guilt due to my actions and I can't disagree with your assessment. Thanks again for your time.
You had a single encounter with a low risk partner. You know feel guilty an want reassurance that you do not have HIV or any other STD. While there are no real absolutes, your risk from the exposure you describe is very, very small.
For starters, your partner states she does not have other partners and states she has been checked and is negative, this is quite likely to be true. In addition, following a single exposure, even if she did have an infection of some sort, the majority of exposures would not lead to transmission of infection (probabilities of transmission following a single organism vary by disease; for HIV the risk of infection from a single encounter with an infected partner is less than 1 in 1000 while for gonorrhea it is less than 1 in 3). Furthermore, a month after your single exposure you have not had symptoms and you have negative tests - you really should not be worrying about infection at this time and instead need to be working through the guilt associated with your actions.
In response to your specific questions:
1. Believe the tests, they are highly sensitive.
2. Syphilis and hepatitis are rare infections in the U.S. and even more so amongst heterosexuals. There is little risk to you of either disease an your tests will make it even less likely. For syphilis a 4 week test is conclusive, for HIV 8 weeks and for hepatitis B, 12 weeks. If the information you have given me above is accurate however, I would be willing to bet at his time that you did not get any of these infections.
3. I do agree that there is no reason for testing for HSV.
4. I believe you mean HPV. If so, there are no good/recommended tests. Genital warts typically appear within a month although occasionally they can take longer- as long as 2-3 months.
5. No.
6. No, the labs sometimes take a while to get their results back and offices sometimes are delayed in providing results.
I repeat, you really should not be worrying about infection at this time and instead need to be working through the guilt associated with your actions. There is very, very little chance you got any STD from the encounter you describe. EWH
