Got An Elisa Done, Came Non Reactive. Doubtful Of Precum Contact On Penis. Possibility Of HIV?

Hi doc. I got an elisa yet done and it came non reactive. I had a slight mishap during my last sexual encounter. The girl had fingered herself and may have touched the shaft if my uncircumcised penis. I have no cuts or sores on my penis. The girl may have had some precum on her fingers. Though she did wipe her hand and touched me a few minutes after touching herself. Can this cause HIV

Hi Deepak,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to HCM.
As per your history, there appears to be almost negligible chances of HIV infection. HIV virus is a very fragile virus which is not having very high infective potential. There are few good points in favor of you:
1. You don't have nay cuts or abrasions
2. You do not know the status of the girl- so if we consider HIV positive as 50 % then can also consider 50% possibility o negative status.
3. Your ELISA is non reactive. Though you haven't told us that after how much of time of mishap you gone for ELSA, but it is always better at 3 months.
In your case as the girl did wiped her hands as well as she touched your penis after few minutes makes it impossible for you to get HIV. So be stress free and relieve your tensions regarding HIV
With best wishes,
Maintain the practice of safe sex!!
