Can you contract HIV from recieving oral sex from a women? And can  having someone rimming you cause a risk of infection due to HIV? I am hearing mixed reviews that it is low risk and others said no risk could anybody help please?

there is so many mixed reviews on this, the doctors say low risk like 1 in 10,000, is there no way of it transmitting? Would i need PEP?

No risk and you don't have any reason to test.

You have nothing to worry about. Your risk was extremely minimal. But you won't be able to move on...in your mind...until you get tested. You actually have no reason to get tested because you had no risk in the first place, but a negative test result will be the only thing that will put your mind at ease. It's the only thing that will silence those truly unjustified, crazy thoughts of yours.  Really, you have no worries regarding the event you just described. Wait 12 weeks, get tested, move on...
