Can Non-penetrative Sexual Activity Transmit HIV?

default
Posted on Thu, 17 Dec 2015
Question: Dear Dr XXXXXXX can HIV be transmitted through soaked underwear?
Dear Dr.,

Three weeks I visited a massage house, I was completely naked but the lady had her cloths on but with very short skirt, she sat with her underwear on my bare penis, only underwear no other cloths and I am not sure if there was any vaginal secretion or not.

Because of her body moves on my penis I asked her to move then after 3-5 seconds, I climaxed in my own hand.

Now the questions:

1- Assuming that she is HIV+, can she transfer the virus to me if there was any vaginal secretion on her underwear to my bare penis?
2- Can the HIV virus exist on my penis till Iclimaxed then go inside my body through my semen?
3- Do I need to do any kind of test?



Appreciate your reply and the effort all of you are doing



Best Regards,
doctor

Brief Answer:
Therisk of transmission of HIV through socked underwear is very rare.

Detailed Answer:
Dear xxxxxxxxx,

Welcome to HCM.

The possibility of transmission of HIV is very rare even though the girl was HIV positive and her underwear socked with vaginal secretions and she sat on your bare penis and move on.

Second, the survival of HIV virus outside the body or in an open environment is very difficult and it will die within seconds. So don't worry about that also because the risk is very low in your case.

Lastly, you can get tested after one month with HIV RNA or 4th generation test to clear all your doubts and it will give you mental satisfaction also. The result will surely come in your favour so be relaxed and move ahead in life happily.

Thank You

If you allow me to ask further, from where the possibility could come?I have one concern here, I asked the same question with the same wording before, you are the same Dr. who answered me before, please see your answer before and advice why I have two different inputs, first time you said it cannot be transmitted like this, now you are saying very rare, please see below:

Brief Answer:
HIV is not transmitted in this way and no need to go for any test.

Detailed Answer:
Dear xxxxxxxxxxxx,

Welcome to HCM.

HIV virus is not transmitted by the day you had mentioned so you need not to worry much as the risk is very remote or negligible in your case.

You also need not to get tested but for your mental satisfaction you can go for 4th generation HIV test or HIV RNA PCR to be sure about your status.

You had done Hepatitis B & C and both of them are also negative so just be relaxed and move ahead in life happily as you are risk free.

Thank You
