What Are The Chances Of HIV Infection After Protected Anal And Oral Sex?

Posted on Mon, 5 Jan 2015

Question: I had anal sex with a friend few minutes ago and i used moisturiser first and then used cooking oil on top of it. And the condom broke and he immediately pulled out his penis. There was no blood or pre cum. I cleaned my anal zone with water and then we used a fresh condom with moisturiser cream. This time the condom didnt break. I am worried what if he has HIV? I asked him and he said he has never fucked anyone without condom and he should be hiv negative. But i cannot trust anyone and i am worried. Please tell me what should i do now? Should i convince him to get a hiv test asap? what are my chances of getting HIV? I have tested myself 2 months back and i tested negative and after that i have never had intercourse with anyone. Although i had 2 oral sex. Please help

Brief Answer:
Less likely to get HIV infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

I am happy that you were insiting on a condom. Since the the penis was removed immediately after the condom broke and there was no bleeding or mixing of secretion you are not likely to get a HIV infection.
Oral sex does not transmit HIV so do not worry about it .

I don't believe people can be convinced to get a HIV test done however you can get tested after 2 weeks with a Western blot technique of HIV test and then once again after 3 months

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Hi doc,
Its been 13 days since i spoke to you. Couple of symptoms i had during this phase is i had a fever blister just below my nose. But i get that often whenever i am stressed or get less sleep. I thought it could be due to that as i am going through major stress since the time i have mailed you. Also, since yesterday i am getting mild eruptions on my left shoulder without any color and they are very itchy. They might be due to dryness and cold. As i had these kind of colorless itchiness before also due to my dry skin. I will get my test done tomorrow which is 14 days since the time i last mailed you. My question is ... How accurate the test is which is done after 14 days from the time of incident?

Dryness

Hello

Nice to hear from you again

Thanks for attaching the photo, I have seen it and I think the small bumps you have could be due to dryness of skin. Please keep your skin well moisturized, it is not a symptom of HIV.

HIV test done after 2 weeks is not very accurate however sensitivity on a western blot technique increases when done after 2 weeks. Window period of HIV is up to 3 months, which means that you can get false negative results up to that time. That is why I requested you to repeat it once again after 3 months.
