Question
Hi,
I gave anal sex to another man using condom, I took the condom off and he used the same condom in his tongue and licked my anal, what is the risk of getting HIV from that?
I'm not sure I understand-
You used a condom and penetrated your partner, then he used that same condom to perform analingus? If that is correct, I wouldnt say that it is a huge risk but you should not re-use condoms. The only thing that worries me here is that the condom that had been in his anus was then used on you. Fluid transmission that way is probably unlikely but I would chance it in the future. Just use a new condom.
