Reread about dead. You must be very anxious since you haven't understand any of the advice which is making you ask endless IRRELEVANT (sorry for the block capitals but I wanted to catch your attention for once to this important word for your case) questions.

It varies from person to person.  We're not really here to answer general questions.  We assess risk and advise on testing.  What was your risk for HIV?

Oral sex.i have got to know that she is diagnosed with hiv? Both the ways?vagina to mouth unprotected?no viganal sex
The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV.  There is no "what if" that you could add to this event that would make it a risk for HIV.
I am bit worried? Pls give me info regarding this in general Normally how many days it will take to transmit to others?
I made a mistake..pls help me with the above info!
I already answered you.  NO RISK for HIV.  There isn't anything else to say, since you did not get HIV from this event.
Don't get me wrong pls...I spoke to one of the physican.he said it was risk suggest prep?it happend 1 week back?
"Don't get me wrong." There is nothing about your situation that was not explained clearly, so no one here got you "wrong." The physician should educate himself about hiv because he is wrong. Your idea that you had hiv risk is wrong and until you accept that you will just waste your time.

Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air  (mouth, lips saliva etc. ). You will be happy to learn that you had no risk, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal with a penis, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv - there are only 3 ways to get hiv. Analysis of large numbers of infected people over the 40 years of hiv history has proven that people don't get hiv in the way you are worried is a risk.
HIV is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the WORST that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, and obviously anything which is dead cannot live again so you are good. Blood and cuts would not be relevant in your situation since the hiv has become effectively dead, so you don't have to worry about them to be sure that you are safe.
There is no reason for a person to test when they are safe. The advice took into consideration that the other person might be positive, so move on and enjoy life instead of thinking about this non-event. hiv prevention is straightforward since there are only 3 ways you can become infected, so next time you wonder if you had a risk, ask yourself this QUESTION. "Did I do any of the 3?" Then after you say "No, I didn't" you will know that it's time to move on back to your happy life.
No one got hiv from what you did during 40 years of hiv history and no one will get it in the next 40 years of your life either.  You can do what you did any time and be safe from hiv.
Thanks for the Rply and clarification..
Wud you say same for in the case of razor cut while shaving the genitals?using same razor.
hiv prevention is straightforward if you know the 3. Reread the advice about only and realize there wasn't a hollow needle attached to the razor when you shaved or the vagina when you had oral sex.
Can Pls give me info regarding this in general Normally how many days it will ger transmitted to others after exposure....
