Question
i got anal sex with a guy, he has precum on his pennis and rub his pennis with lub, after that, he put his condom on, and rub the condom with lub again with the same hand, then he inserted his pennis into my anus, is there any chance to get hiv this way, knowing that the precum fluid was out of the body for about one minute and was mixed with lub???

Answer
Hello Jorge,

HIV is a very fragile virus which lives short outside receptor and it needs direct contact to make someone infected. Given that you used condom, had proper lubrication, did not experience condom break and you had no open anal sores, there is nothing to worry about.

My apologies, I clicked the 'send to question pool' mistakenly.

Take care.

Regards,
