Hand to genital std

[mav221]

Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well.

This is a question regarding hand genital contact. If for example, I touched someone’s genitals and I touched my genitals directly after it, there is no risk for STD transmission, that’s according to a lot of the old answers given here on Medhelp by the doctors.

The answers say that any hand to genital contact, even mutual masterbation, even exchanging semen while mutual masterbation, there is no risk of any STD in that way (hpv, herpes, syphilis), but it has to be actual skin to skin meaning genital to genital contact. not genital hand genital…

Doctors say that through out their careers they did not see anyone who caught an STD that way. So Does it really not happen that way or could it be that no patient ever came to the clinic having done only that ? Done Only hand to genital contact. Usually patients come to the clinic having had some sort of sex. Or it just does not happen like that ?

I ask because I am someone who only does hand to genital contact, mutual masterbation, nothing else sexual (severe OCD reasons).

Thanks a lot for your help as always.

I know you have OCD, but I've answered this for you before.

Reread that thread. I gave you links to answers from doctors, with great explanations as to why that doesn't happen.

Keep this link and reread it when you get anxious.

Thank you for replying and always helping.  The question below is just bugging me.

Is it possible that no patient ever came to the clinic having done only that ? Done Only hand to genital contact. That’s why they do not see it transmitted that way.

Won’t ask again. Thanks again.

No, that's not possible, nor is it possible that was never studied.
