Possible HIV transmission by oral sex

Dear,
more than 15 days ago I had only oral sex risk with a person know if this with the HIV virus. The relationship was only 2 minuntos and consisted only approx caress her clit with my tongue and do not enter any time in your vagina.
No signs of menstruation had just a little smell of urine. 15 minutes later I took three mouthwashes with Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.1%.
I wonder if this implies a high risk for becoming infected with HIV.

Thank you very much for your reply.

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV as human saliva contains bacteria and enzymes that render the virus inactive. (Unable to infect)

Oral sex IS a risk for other STD's and I recommend you have a panel done.
