Question Hi, i recently went to a bar where i met with a dancer, after long drinks we ended up going into a private and had sex; we started with a condom but at some point there was some slight penetration unprotected. I didnt finish because at the end i felt bad and decided to leave. There was some orale sex from me to her but had no cuts on my mouth. Now im feelin really stressed out about all this and think it was the worst mistake of my life. Can you please give me some advice? Thank in advance
Answer There is not much I can tell you. Anytime that infected blood, semen, vaginal fluid and/or breast milk enter another person's body, transmission is possible. You do not need sores or cuts in the mouth to contract HIV through the mouth. Think of the mouth itself as a really big sore.
If you are concerned about your status, you should seek an HIV test.
