Can one have HSV or HIV after having protected oral sex?

Question

Hello doctor,

I went to a massage parlor three months back. I had protected oral sex using a condom and also indulged in some open-mouth kissing and breast sucking. A few days later, I started having a little heaviness in the penis after urine. Out of anxiety, I did STI (sexually transmitted infection) panel tests after one month. Everything came negative except HSV IgG. Since then, I have been scared that I have contracted HIV (human immunodeficiency virus).

Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The chances of transmission of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) by single-protected oral sex and kissing are almost nil unless there are bleeding wounds in the oral cavity. However, HSV(herpes simplex virus) can be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, kissing, or as an STD (sexually transmitted disease). If the HIV antibodies test is negative after one month, the chances of HIV tests coming positive later are very low. But it is better to go for an HIV antibody test after 90 days of last exposure to relieve anxiety and have conclusive results.

Hope this helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

If there is no tear in the condom, the chances of getting HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) with protected oral sex and kissing are almost nil unless there are bleeding wounds in the oral cavity. The chances of HIV tests coming positive later are almost nil. However, you may go for the tests as suggested.

Thank you.

There is nothing to worry about contracting HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) due to this act. Tests are done to relieve your anxiety and for conclusive results. Consult a psychiatrist for your anxiety for counseling and management.
