Question
QUESTION: I was a maassge parlour last night. Here's what happened
no penetrative sex
no oral sex
curdled her with her clothes
she only stimulated my penis.
No ejaculation

what am worried about is that i didn't see her hands. If there is a cut on her hand am i at risk? Does the wound need to be such where blood is oozing out?do i need testing.

i repeat no penetrative or oral sex. She only held my penis and was stimulating it. How safe am i?


ANSWER: Dear Varun:

Peace.  Were you significantly exposed to her blood or vaginal secretions?  I think you are pretty safe if not.  Please go to www.avert.org, www.thebody.com, or www.unaids.org for some detailed information on what is risky and what is not.

Best to you and yours,

Terry

QUESTION: not really sir. had it that happened i would have noticed. vaginal secretions not possible as she never took no a single cloth off. but what i wanna know is, is there any risk in this. please tell me sir. do i need a TEST?

Answer
Dear Varun:

Peace.  If this is your only possible exposure to the fluids I mentioned, you do not need a test.  If you have had other exposures to the blood, semen, or vaginal secretions of another person and you want to know and take charge of your health, then by all means feel free to be tested and counseled.  And... go to the sites I mentioned for more information.

Best to you and yours,

Terry
