Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I had a protected oral sex with transgender yesterday. Before we started the oral sex, she showed me her STD (Sexually Transmitted Diseases) and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) test results and they were negative (I have doubts about the results as it was sent to here by SMS and there was no date on it). At the start of the oral sex, I sucked her cock with a condom (she was wearing a condom) and then she sucked my cock and I was wearing a condom as well. There was no pre-cum, no cums, no transmission of body fluid, nothing, just the scenario above. I have a simple blood clot in the sublingual salivary glands for the past six months and I am still taking medicine for it. Is there any chance to get STDs or HIV based on the scenario above? I need a direct answer to my situation and no general information, please.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
To be clear, HIV will not transmit through oral sex. No possibility for HIV infection. Coming to STDs, there is no transmission of STDs through a protected act. So, there is no possibility for STDs also (including syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, herpes). Finally, no chances of transmission of either STDs and HIV.
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for response.
I read on some website that it is possible for HIV to transmit through oral sex. But it has low or no risk. And the protected oral sex have even lower risk than unprotected oral sex. My question is whether there is any risk to get HIV in my situation. Or there is no need to worry and I can relax. Just to make sure that I have no HIV or STDs. Please read my situation carefully.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
First, answer to your question, there is no risk of HIV infection, nothing to worry because HIV has envelope made of fat, which is digested by saliva and makes it harmless. But the risk attributed by oral sex in some cases due to any ulcer in the oral cavity or on the penis. In your case, condom protects from any possible entry. So, not at risk of HIV.
