HIV Exposure
ok so i hooked up with my girlfriend the other night. ( Just tongue kiss, like french kissing open mouth) She has given bjs to like 3 guys. I had a sore in the back of my mouth and she had a sore on her lip, however I did not taste any blood. I went home and used listerine when i found out seh said she cut her mouth after and seh was bleeding. Then the next day we french kissed again, I did not taste any blood but we both had open sores and hooked up. what are my chances? do i need to get tested? im really scared
You sound young. Your questions also imply that you are pretty clueless about HIV transmission. You need to get better educated on how HIV is transmitted. Your health is your responsibility. Knowledge is power. As far as sex is concerned, what you don't know, can hurt you. Sex lasts for minutes and HIV lasts for a lifetime.
As a sexually active person, you should know that you should always be using condoms for anal/vaginal intecourse until you are in a mutually monnogamous relationship with someone who is conclusively negative. Do this and you will likely avoid HIV infection. Fail to do so, and you may not avoid it. Also, as a sexually active person you should be getting an annual STD/HIV screening. It's the responsible thing to do.
