Is Sore Throat After Risky Sexual Intercourse Indicative Of STD?

Posted on Mon, 1 Feb 2016

Question: Hi,
I had casual sex with an escort. We used a condom for both oral and vaginal sex and I ejaculated into the condom after completion. However, I did not withdraw immediately. I stayed in for about an extra 15 seconds or so. The condom was still intact and I was still around 3/4 erect so there wasn't really any slippage. I've had a sore throat for about 2 days now. Is there any way that her vaginal fluids could have gotten into the condom and I have contracted an STD or HIV?

Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this concern that you have raised. I have reviewed the symptoms fully and this is not suggestive of a possible infection. Besides, the precautions taken during the sexual encounter leave little chances for such a thing to have happened. I will recommend that you take Tylenol and regular salty lukewarm water gargles for relief.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Thank you Doc. I really appreciate it. I haven't had a fever or anything else either, so I'm hoping thats also a good sign. I just wanted to make sure I was ok and I didn't need to worry or go obtain PEP.
