Any risk of STDs here?
Had protected vaginal sex with escort about three days ago. Lasted about two minutes and then I withdrew and took the condom off in the bathroom and washed mybgenital area. Should I be concerned about ANY STDs here? Very stressed. Thanks.
Your encounter is low risk for std the condom does Provide some protection against herpes. The real risk here is anxiety you may even cause your self symptoms if you keep inspecting your self looking for them If I was you I would try to move on. Don’t search for symptoms on the internet you will never get a conclusive answer. If I was you I wouldn’t test unless you have a long term partner or you have some noticeable symptoms like discharge or blisters. Don’t let your mind wonder of every what if. You had PROTECTED SEX and that is low risk. If you do test make sure the time line is right and the tests are conclusive.

Makes sense. Thank you Jamie
As far as having syphilis or herpes transmitted to someone from a female, would you have to have an open cut or sore in order for it to enter your body? It cant just go through the scrotum or shaft, correct?
The skin in your scrotum is thicker anything is possible. But is it likely to happen on a one time encounter? No The biggest thing that had to happen for transmission is that your partner would need to be infected. herpes active at the time of the encounter (not necessarily visible) There are a lot of pieces that have to be there in order for infection to happen. Could it have happened? Yes but it’s unlikely to have happened on a onetime protected encounter.
I don’t know too much about syphilis. But again it’s probably not likely. most csw would probably not have this and not be treated for it. I don’t think it’s as common these days also.
Thanks very much.
Condoms are there to protect. So unless they break or move, there is no reason to think you could have caught any STD.
The only possibility would be herpes if the person you had sex with had the typical lesions in the area around the genitals. In that case, because of the contact skin to skin, you could get infected. but you would have noticed if she had them.
All the best.

Thank you for the response. Also anything to worry about when removing the condom and exposure to her fluids? Thanks.
As long as those fluids don't touch the head of your penis, everything will be alright. Some bacteria could cause infection if they reach the urethra.
Ok makes sense. I don’t believe that happened as I would think I would have had to almost turn it inside out when removing. At least I hope I didn’t do that!!! Stressful.
Would there ne any risk of syphilis for this scenario?
