What Are The Chances Of HIV Transmission Through Protected Sex?
Question: hi.. last week i had sex (oral sex and penetration with protection) with some unknown partner. She had a smoke before i met and was coughing few times.. that same day i had cough and later on feeling very tired and feel as if i have no energy.. is it the symptom of HIV
Brief Answer:
not hiv symptom
Detailed Answer:
Hi ,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic .
Hiv won't produce symptoms so soon after getting Infected. It usually takes more then 6 months or even more to produce symptoms. So your cough and weakness are not symptoms of hiv.
With protected sex chances of spread of hiv is not there unless condom failure happens. With oral sex hiv is unlikely to spread. So there is no risk for hiv infection to you with this incident.
The cough and weakness could be due to viral infection transmitted from your partner. For the treatment you need to consult your doctor and start on anti cough medication and antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query . If any further queries are there I would love to help.
Regards
