Forgot to mention, above every thing, the PEP that you took adds up to the chances of you not contracting the virus. Taking all the opposing scenarios in to the picture, I personally think, you'd be okay.
k I will tell what my exposure is I had unprotected sex with a sex worker few month's back and after 2 month's post exposure I came to know that she is HIV positive I was scared to get tested but still I went and go tested and I was declared negative. The only way to know ur status is testing.
Mitra,
We can't really make you hear, what you want to hear in this forum. We only assist analyzing the exposure and suggest the necessary testing protocol from what we have researched and learnt over a period of time. For psychological help, you would need to post in the appropriate forum.
However, from what you have posted here today, I can only tell you that a PEP was not really required for the nature of exposure you have mentioned. Generally, the chances of one acquiring the virus through one time heterosexual sex with a known positive individual is said to be low. Secondly, there is a very good chance that the CSW was NOT HIV positive, considering the business they are in to, they themselves are pretty aware about the disease and ensure utmost care to stay protected from it. Also, to add more to it, the time that you were exposed was relatively lesser - a few minutes probably, it was not even a complete episode of penetrative sexual exposure.
With all the above scenarios, the chances of you acquiring the virus is slim. Go ahead take your conclusive test 3 months post the last dosage of your PEP. I or the most here wouldn't be surprised when you post your negative here on your 3 month's test.
Please take your time to read about the correct usage of condoms to ensure you don't go through this again.
Good Luck.
no when i pulled out my penis tip was not covered by condom...
is that put me at higher risk???
Your test will be conclusive 3 months post your last dose of nPEP.
Buddy I am also from India(Hyderabad) I was in ur situation few month's back and I was feeling just like you. This is the right time for u to get tested and I bet u will test negative.HIV can't be passed so easily that to from a single exposure.Just go and get tested and have a peace of mind. DONT WORRY YOU WILL TEST NEGATIVE.
thanks lizzy....
but i am relly scared to get tested...
I really want some positive signs to built up my confidence.
can u help he with that???
opps i mean condom did it cover tip of penis ?
ill make it easier for u did ur penis cover tip of ur penis ?
PEP is usually reserved for those who had an exposure with someone who is known hiv positive. dont even know why you were put on it.
successful? odds?
the ONLY way to know your status is by testing...PERIOD
thanks lizzie,
but can u tell me weather PEP is successful, what are oods in my case.
also I herd infected female to uninfected male transmission is low risk???
is it true?
a test 3 months after your last dose of pep will give you a conclusive result.
