Dear Dr Sean,
Thank you for the info. One last question. I had sex without protection with my wife 3 days after exposure. There was vaginal intercourse about 10 mins but no ejaculation inside her.
Is it possible to pass any STDs to her, or it takes a longer period for the STD, if any, to build up in my body to high enough amounts to infect her?
Also, is it okay for me to kiss her n my family members during the window period? I understand i have to wait for a few more weeks for other tests.
Best regards,
Ricky
Hello
Testing times would be:
Chlamydia and gonorrhoea - now - 2 weeks is enough.
Syphilis - 4 weeks post exposure
Herpes - swab at any time if there are blisters - but for blood tests 12 weeks after the event.
Kind regards, Sean
Dear doctor,
Thank you for your reply. Can i check when should i check for the abovementioned STDs that I should screen for? 2 weeks have passed since the encounter, is it long enough for me to do the test?
hello,
Thank you for your post. Here are your answers as follows:
1. Is there any risk of AIDs or STDs that I could have contracted via the following (all without condom)
a. Handjob: NO
b. Mammary intercourse: NO
c. Insertive oral sex: YES, RISK OF CHLAMYDIA, GONORRHOEA, NON-SPECIFIC URETHRITIS, SYPHILIS AND HERPES. NO RISK OF HIV.
2. What could be the reason of the burning sensation in my penis just one day after the encounter? Is it due to any STD, the prolonged foreplay, extensive cleaning (with soap) of my penis after the incident, or just anxiety? UNLIKELY TO BE AN STD AFTER ONLY ONE DAY; IT IS POSSIBLY RELATED TO THE FRICTION OF INTERCOURSE AND SHOULD RESOLVE WITHIN A FEW DAYS. HOWEVER YOU SHOULD BE TESTED FOR THA STDs MENTIONED ABOVE.
3. The SW was moving from room to room and didn't clean herself properly after sex. Is it possible for me to contract any STDs from her previous customers, and their semen is left on her hands or breasts? Would receiving a handjob or mammary intercourse if her hands and breasts are not clean give me a chance to contract STDs?
HIGHLY UNLIKELY. HOWEVER THE STDs MENTIONED ABOVE MIGHT BE POSSIBLE.
Best wisehs,
Dr José
