HIV Risk
Hi,
Just looking for some advice regarding my HIV risk. I was with a guy (I'm also male) six weeks ago and we engaged in unprotected oral sex (insertive and receptive). During it, he put his penis near my anus and penetrated me. He had it in literally for a couple of seconds before I asked him to remove it. There was no ejaculation obviously. I thought nothing of it at the time but after some thinking I started wondering whether I could have been exposed to HIV.
Been feeling fine (although I know symptoms are an unreliable indicator of HIV infection.) Also, if anyone could clear this up for me: a lot of people on this forum say the risk of transmission from oral sex (even with ejaculation is zero). Is it literally zero or just extremely unlikely? Thanks.

Eek. Even though he was only in for a couple of seconds? That is quite ominous. Was planning on getting tested anyway. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
