What are my risks of getting an Std?

[senpai1234]

Yesterday around 9:30 pm i had unprotected oral sex from a female and Protected vaginal intercourse with her but while we was having sex i noticed discarge coming out her vagina which was like a whitish grey color and didnt know what it was so i stopped immediately , when i stopped and asked her what it was she had a confused look on her face like she didnt really know niether, but while i did have a condom on some of the liquid got on me near the bottom of my shaft / pubic hair region so im just wondering is there a chance i exposed myself? I already booked me an appointment for testing/ to get checked at a planned parenthood on the 4th of march, any input would help thanks!

I don't know what her discharge was - it might be natural lubrication, maybe a bacterial vaginosis infection, but it's hard to say.

In any case, any infections spread through fluids - gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, hepatitis B, trich, etc. - are all non-issues because the head of your penis was covered by the condom. If her fluids get into your urethra, that's how you'd get those infections if she had one.

Herpes, hpv and syphilis are all spread by direct, unclothed skin to skin contact. Those aren't associated with discharge, though.

If the oral was unprotected, you could get gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis if she has those orally. If she has oral herpes type 1, and you don't already, you could get genital herpes type 1. The risks are much lower for oral, and most experts don't think one act of unprotected oral even warrants testing.

I don't think you need to worry about this, and testing is always a good idea if you are sexually active. If your local Planned Parenthood doesn't offer herpes testing, that's okay. There are a decent amount of false positives with herpes type 2 blood tests, so unless you get symptoms, I wouldn't test.

I haven’t noticed any strange discharge or painful peeing since my exposure with her , I been paying close attention since then and checking myself every morning but I already have type one herpes of the lips/ cold sores I often get depending how the weather is so I don’t think that’s an issue but yes I am sexually active so ima just test for the peace of mind lol because I really Have no clue what that discharge of hers was so it kinda bothers me to not think she doesn’t have anything but so far so good as of right now

Yes, I'm sure you're worried, but remember that the head of your condom was covered. That's what's important. If she had a yeast infection, you might get a fungal infection, which would be itchy and whatnot on your skin, but you can get that without sex.

You wouldn't have symptoms nearly this soon if you got anything from her. The absolute minimum is 2 days, and that's not usual.

You might see symptoms of gonorrhea and chlamydia within a week, give or take, if you get them - 20% of men don't. Herpes symptoms appear between 2 and 20 days, with 4 days being an average. Syphilis sores appear 10-90 days, with 21 days being an average. HPV is at least a few months, usually longer.

Hang in there. :)

Oh okay well maybe it’s best I avoid any sexual contact then until I get tested to be sure I don’t pass on anything incase she did pass me anything because I’m not super worried, it’s just I know there’s risks from oral sex so ima just have to wait it out and see if anything happens , but thank you for the information ! Was highly appreciated!
