[Question #10380] Urgent! PEP and Oral Question
23 months ago
|
Hello, I am a male and met up with another male around my age (mid 20). We kissed, I never go further than a handjob. But I don’t know what overcame me and gave him a deep unprotected blow job, He did not finish in my mouth, but I know there was some pre-seminal fluid. I am a hypochondriac so I am terrified of HIV. I know the risk is small, but it exists and that worries me. The issue is that my mouth has been very dry/stinging the past week or so, and I had a few nights of drinking which had made it worse, so my mouth would be in a more vulnerable state.
He told me twice he had no STI but I didn’t specifically ask about HIV. Was in a different city so I don’t know if I can contact him again.
It’s not been more than 12 hours yet. I can go on PEP? Do you think there is absolutely any need? I also know that PEP delays testing which I know will consume my mental health for almost 12+ weeks, instead of just 6 weeks at most (and earlier if I take an RNA test). I’m very confused as to what to do. I know that my risk is low, but I don’t want to actually get infected because my mouth was not in the best condition (and I’m not sure why, I think I might have some sort of allergic reaction to new foods I’ve been trying). So just trying to get an opinion.
