Brief Answer:
Yes: if the individual is HIV-positive; otherwise No

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. If at all the individual you inserted your penis into is a HIV-infected person, then the answer to your question would be: Yes, this is considered low-risk exposure.

But if the individual is not HIV-positive, then this insertion would not be considered HIV-exposure at all. So it all comes down to whether or not that individual is HIV-positive, so discussing her HIV-stauts would be a wise next step sir.

I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.

Best wishes.
