Oral sex, scared!!!!
Hello, I really need some feedback in regards to my recent encounter. Recently I engaged In oral sex with a new partner, we did not have any other type of sex; only oral. My concern is that he ejaculated in my mouth and did not tell me until I felt it ( I’m sorry for the detailed description). I then went to wash my mouth with water, about two minutes after the incident. Im worried that this might have placed me at risk for hiv? According to my new partner he states he does not have anything. Am I really at risk after this incident ? Would it be recommended to test in 28 days with a 4th generation ?
Very low risk u do not need to test for hiv but some std can transmit by oral sex
Here is a very small risk.

Don't listen to this advise because this guy thinks he can get HIV from a mosquito, which is of course ridiculous.
You need to improve your knowledge. See CDC advice.
The chance an HIV negative person will get HIV from oral sex with an HIV positive partner is extremely low. However it's hard to know the exact risk because a lot of people who have oral sex also have anal and vaginal sex. The type of oral sex that may be the riskiest is mouth to penis oral sex. But the risk is still very low and much lower than anal and vaginal sex.
Though the risk of HIV transmission through oral sex is low , several factors may increase the risk, including sore in the mouth, or on the penis, bleeding gums,...
This is what CDC says
Therefore though the risk is very low, but it is not no risk situation, what chima7 said.

The CDC is often very conservative and outdated, and lists risks that are largely theoretical. HIV doctors who are experts in their field state that the risk is so miniscule that they do not recommend testing from an oral-only encounter. In reality, the number of people who *may* have been infected via oral sex is so low as to be statistically insignificant.
Yes CurefewX. But it's not zero risk.
It hasn't happened in 40 years of HIV history so it likely won't in the next 40 years of your life either. doctors here have calculated that you have a greater chance of being hit by a meteor as you type. do you fear that a meteor will hit you?
From the CDC: "There is little to no risk of getting or transmitting HIV from oral sex." Coupled with expert physicians' statements that there is no realistic concern, and that testing after an oral exposure is not recommended, we rate this risk as close to zero as possible. It is up to each individual to decide whether to use protection for oral sex - that is not a decision that would would want to make for anyone. However, our stance remains that oral sex presents a statistically insignificant risk, and we will not change this advice unless new information from expert physicians comes to light.

Oral is zero risk, so it is not recommended to test for HIV ever after oral. HIV is dead in air and water, so washing any dead virus in your mouth is not necessary.
