HIV Prostitute
I'm an 18 year old guy. About a month ago I had vaginal sex with a prostitute with a condom. That's WITH a condom. I had shaven my pubic hair earlier that day and my skin was irritated. Her HIV status is unknown to me, as in, I don't know if she had HIV or not. Her vaginal fluid got on the base of my penis where the condom did not cover. If it matters, I did not ejaculate during intercourse. After we stopped I got in the shower and scrubbed my genitals thoroughly with soap. I also masterbated and ejaculated; mostly to clean out my urethra. I got tested for various STDs and HIV and I get the results tomorrow. No matter what the result is of the HIV test I plan to be tested again in about two months and again three months after that. I can deal with any other STD, but I can't deal with HIV. What do ya'll think about all of this???? Any opinions, advice, probabilities....anything would be helpful and infinitely appreciated. Thank you.
I had just shaved my pubes and the skin had bled a little earlier in the day....there were pore-sized dry spots of blood on my pelvis when the hooker pulled down my pants.
Once again, the discussion evolved into expounding on the topic of prostitution and the incidence of hiv & aids, as it relates to hiv prevention.
any stats on percentage of infected prostitutes in u.s.? Nothing was said about patrons nor was anything every mentioned about unprotected sex.
I agree, that discussion expanded from the original post as you know and the topic of hiv/aids came up as it relates to prostitutes and there patrons.
"I'm an 18 year old guy. About a month ago I had vaginal sex with a prostitute with a condom. That's WITH a condom."
It's not with whom you have sex with, it's the risk you take when having sex. Harderock, did exactly what he was suppose to do. He used a condom and condoms consistently and correctly used, prevents the transmission of HIV.

Im not certain, the problem with the stats is that they are estimates in certain countries that don't keep tabs on their sex workers health. I'd try Googling this -or- Wikipedia,ect...good-luck and stay safe my friend.
Agreed. I'm on topic here regardless of any other reasons, motives, ect you've chosen to find fault with my posts.
The greatest consequence of prostitution is drug abuse and std's & hiv infection, this really an un-disputable point, i don't see how you can argue otherwise. Those who patronize there services and engage in this highly self-destructive activities are also putting themselves at great risk all around.
You can move on from the post if you like...but i'm here on the forum, part of which is friendly supportive advice and discussion regarding hiv/aids, which is transmissible via drug use as well as sexually, remember?
Find the word all for me "all street walkers, ect...please point that out where you find it. Those who participate or engage in criminal -or- illegal activities are in support of a certain aspect of society, it's subculture, this is not a judgement against people who are disadvantaged, it's a fact of life.
MOVE ON. Chapeau, you have nothing to back yourself up and so far most of what you have said is just YOUR opinion and not fact. Is this a sexual addictions, drug addiction forum? No this is an HIV forum.
You grouped all street walking prostitutes as drug using homeless subcultures. Which is not true at all and you do not have any information to back yourself up in making such a statement.
As far as testing, everyone that is sexually active with multiple partners should be tested annually.

Your sentence was confusing, please clarify your point because if distinctly separated out the different facets into segments and then you state that i've grouped them all together-explain this please. I never once said that most people who became infected with hiv were infected from prostitutes, please don't spin -or- insinuate this, it was never said. The earlier part of my statement was directed towards HardRock -or- anybody else who thinks that frequenting solely prostitutes as there only source of sex will not be putting themselves at the highest risk possible. Even when engaging in protected intercourse (from my perspective/opinion & readings over the last 7 months) incidental exposure & possible infection may very well still arise at some point and testing regularly is still a must-condom are highly effective, but nothing is promised 100%. Although when used properly there should be no reason for worry, certain act (anal) for instance can weaken -or- in some cases end in condom failure/ people who dip, ect, people should test annually, it's conservative but a very worthwhile thing to do.
Keep your opinions to your self chapeau. No one wants to hear your opinions. The facts are Latex condoms are very effective if used consistently and correctly. . Again Chapeau not all prostitutes in the US are drug users. Subculture? MOVE ON CHAPEAU. Chapeau, the prostitutes that the NY Governor got caught with, I don't believe is a homeless IV drug user, do you?

Don't group everyone is a group chapeau. Not all prostitutes are drug abusers. There are more people infected with HIV from persons that are not in those fields as those that are.
There was never anything said about CSW being high risk. As for the numbers. the numbers I gave were from the CDC surveillance report You can look them up. Chapeau wasn't even close with the numbers. If you can do math, you would see that, his numbers would figure out to unrealistic possibilities in the number of people that would be infected. As for the guideline for "If you should test" it would help if you read them and understand what it say. It actually says if one has sex with someone that has sex for money one should test annually.
I Agree with the information provided by Chapeau. That CSW's are considered as the high risk partners. Otherwise, why would CDC recommend a HIV test for those exchange sex for money?
Teak: you are wrong here in the numbers
in Canada prosptitution is legal, where are its not in U.S
In Canada, prostitues are supposed to get tested for HIV & STD and take the immunization. Where as the Street hookers in U.S dont.
So considering this info (facts) , prostitutes in U.S are considered be higher risk than the ones in Canada.
BUt well, it never is worth taking that risk of sleeping with a pro.
So, my rec is, regardless of protected or unprotected (US or Canada), one should get tested, when there is money/drugs exchanged for money.
The bottom line is not IF she is "seroconverting" or not; the bottom line is He is NOT at risk, if he has protected sex.
