testing question

i recently had unprotected anal/oral sex with another male who is older(27 years old). he did not ejaculate inside of me. he ejaculated afterwards on my stomach. this was my first time having sex. he is a physical therapist and says that he gets tested quarterly. i have been freaking out since that night about this. how likely is it to have contracted an std from this? how long should i wait to be tested?

The tests and the guidelines are 3 months post exposure for a conclusive test result. There is no test approved to give one a conclusive test result earlier.

Hi Bm,

Teak said for hIV test in 3 months time.
For others go also after 6 weeks or less and test.

For HIV test 6-8 weeks then go back and get your conclusive at 3 months. Don't ever take someones word that they are not infected and use condoms consistently and correctly. STDs have all different time frames. Seek the advice at you STD clinic.
