STD Risk

[broton]

I was at a strip club, terrible idea. I know.

I was with a stripper, and I briefly sucked on her breasts and nipples for a few seconds, and then got scared and stopped quickly.

She kissed me but I pulled away after a few seconds as I was caught off guard and frightened.

I touched her vagina and got fluids on my hand. The stripper then inserted her fingers into her vagina for a bit, and shortly after, put her hand down my pants and manually stimulate my penis. She began to rub her vagina against my penis through my underwear. Eventually she placed my penis between her breasts and rubbed it until I ejaculated.

I saw her wipe herself off and then go directly and find another guy and take him into the room. I became extremely panicked that my experience with her may have been right after another guy did something similar to what I did, and am now completely panicked about STD's and what I could have gotten from her or a previous partner.

What am I possibly at risk for? I did not notice any type of lesions or open sores on her. There were no noticeable fluids on her when I was with her. I am totally panicking and having massive anxiety. I'm not sure what to do. I know the best thing is to get tested, but how long do I have to wait for whatever I may have been exposed to?

Thanks

Is there a way to direct my questions to the experts you mentioned if I wanted more detail or is it just a matter of hoping they chose my questions?

Thanks.

many prior posts in the std experts forum too to look through on this kind of topic. since they get paid for their time, they do often take the time to do some really good teaching on risks for more precise info as to why such and such isn't a risk :)  

we are totally against gloom, doom and scaring the bejeebers out of folks needlessly here!!!  No one should ever be scared to be naked with someone, they should be informed about std's enough to protect themselves from real risks :)

Thanks. There is a lack of knowledge amongst the public, not a lot of great resources, and a lot of inconsistent information and "theoreticals" that cause a great deal of confusion and anxiety. Thanks for time, its very much appreciated.

if anything you had done was a real std risk, I would've said so.   This is all volunteer for all of us. Unless you had a risk or you have a documented infection that you need info on, we honestly aren't going to take the time to write a book to you.  

strip clubs aren't risks if you keep your face out of strangers crotches and keep your pants on :)

Thanks, Vance. I'm just trying to get all the information I can, as I'm very paranoid and have a lot of anxiety right now. I want to make sure I have all the facts and added information just to clarify, because I wasn't sure I made that clear the first time. The response I got was reassuring and appreciated although a bit vague and lacking detail.

I understand that there is low HIV risk from the lack of penetration, but I was curious about the fact that there may have been another man's semen on her breasts from a previous encounter, even if she wiped it with a rag or something, but then I put my mount there. I have heard mixed information about STD transmision through certain fluids, and was curious if by sucking on her breasts, there may still be some bacteria, or virus still living on them that hadn't been properly removed.

Some information that I have found on the internet through various blogs does state that there is a low, but possible risk of other STD's through her touching her vaginal fluids, and then rubbing her hands on my penis, such as HPV or HSV. Also, through rubbing her exposed vagina on my underwear, that if it was wet enough, some germs could pass? So I wanted to get some clarity there.

I'm assuming that Grace doesn't feel like these are large enough risks to be concerned about, and her intention in keeping it brief was to be emphasize her reassurance. I guess I was expecting more of a break down of the hazards of each act.

Again, I'm just anxious. I appreciate everyone's input. Please don't take offense, I'm not trying to second guess, just trying to get some piece of mind by knowing as much as I can so I can be educated in the future to what is and isn't risky behavior. But I suppose just going to a strip club is already riskier behavior that everyone should avoid.

Reread what Grace told you, it seems like with this follow up question you did not even read her responce.

Thank you GracefromHHP. Is there any potential that germs from bodily fluids of a previous patron were on her breasts when I put my mount or penis on them? I understand how careless this sounds in hindsight, having not taken any of this into consideration in the heat of the moment. I understand that HIV can not live outside of the body very long, but some STD's may be transmitted from gential to hand (or breast) to genitals, although the risk may be lower.

this was not a risk for std's. you don't need to worry and you don't need testing.
