HIV Risk question
Hello, yesterday I had two “exposures” that weren’t really exposures.
1. Protected Anal sex (Topping) with another male. The condom didn’t break and I didn’t ejaculate.
2. Unprotected oral sex. I gave and received from another guy (no related to the first one), I know it is a no risk exposure but after I finished I had blood in my mouth, I didn’t see any cut, but I’m 85% sure it was mine, probably he bit my lips or something like that. Also he mostly did all the oral sex. I just performed it for a few seconds on him, no ejaculation in mouth.
Again, I already know that they are no risk exposures, but I want to know if having the bleeding in my mouth changes the risk. I also asked them both about their status and they said they were std free (anyways I should think that they could have been lying).
Anyways, I don’t know if I should test for HIV. I would like to close this topic asap so I think I will do a HIV RNA test in 2 weeks. What do you think about my exposure?

You were previously advised of the only 3 risks. Therefore it is odd that you think there are possibilities of creating additional risks.

Next time answer the QUESTION posed on May 19 and then you can move on instead of wasting more of your time wondering if you have discovered something that researchers hadn't thought of in 40 years.

I understand. It was a new exposure and I wanted to confirm. Probably it was because of the blood I had in my mouth after the oral sex. Yes, I know they are no risk situations and I will move on.
Also, thank you from the previous post, I think I didn’t thank you there.

You need to remember the risks so you can participate in sexual activity and not 'wonder'. If you didn't have unprotected vaginal or anal sex or share IV drug needles, you do not need to worry about HIV.

Yes, thank you. My main concern was the presence of blood in my mouth after the oral sex exposure. I don't really think it was caused by the oral sex, and when I gave him O.S. there wasn't blood. It was after it, we stayed deep kissing. I will now try to relax as you told me there is no risk.
Thank you
Thank you
I'm sure you know the meaning of "only 3", so it is illogical to ask if blood in mouth is a fourth way to get hiv. Previous advice on other thread said blood was not a risk.
