No Symptoms, sexually active, shall I worry
Hi, I am of Asian descent and been in US since 13 years. I had no knowledge of what STD's are and always thought if anyone has anything, they would get symptoms. I am learning better through this forum. I have following questions.
1. I do not have any symptoms now and never had in past.
2. My last 2 encounters were with same guy. He claims to be gay but do not engage in anal sex and repeats he is very clean. I had encounter 1 week ago and 1 month ago with him. I did ejaculate in his mouth and did suck him for 15-20 seconds. He is Caucasian in his late 60's. What is the risk? I did not find any sores on his mouth or penis.
3. I had unprotected vaginal sex 4 times -the last one was 2 years ago , before that 4 years ago, only 1 encounter with 4 different ladies. They told me they are clean. We never met again. These are not SW. These are regular Caucasian housewives , working women with early 40's.
4. Received unprotected oral sex from Gay men, 8 to 10, mostly claim they do not engage in anal sex. Everyone told me that they did not have anything and were very clean. Since I did not know much , I went with belief that oral might not hurt.
5. Since I have no symptoms, I understand I might need STD testing, going to schedule one soon since some of the STD's can be asymptotic. But what are my chances with STD's and HIV.

Depends on the std. Hiv it can go either way. Syphillis you would most likely get a chancre sore at the spot of infection. Hsv again can have no symptoms at all but in most cases you would have symptoms within 10 days or so. Bacterial std's like gonnerhia or chlamydia would probably have discharge and or burning while urinating. However there is no guarantee of this.
Odds are good for most std's that you would get symptoms but please get tested. You owe it to yourself and others who you are intimate with.

Thanks, going to get tested very soon.
Many std's including hiv can be asymptomatic. It's in your best interest to have a complete std screening and use condoms for all casual sexual encounters.

Thanks for reply. What I am reading in forum is , most times STD's have symptoms .. and no symptoms in 2-3 months means probably no infection but can't assure unless tested.
what are odds of getting symptoms?
