I have this following scenario. 5 days back I had sex with a high end russian escort. The encounter included unprotected oral once and protected vaginal twice. I checked the condoms and they were intact and no breaks. 

Today I have started with a sorr throat. So little anxious for the risk. Could you please guide me about the risk of this exposure and what would be my next course of action? I do regularly test for HIV and the last test was 2 months back and this is the only encounter I have after that.

Regards,

Your risk for HIV from the exposure you described is minuscule. As you know, STI‘s, including HIV are relatively uncommon amongst high-end commercial sex workers. Even more importantly, however, you used a condom for your vaginal exposures and there is no known risk for acquisition of HIV for receipt of oral sex. Finally, I am confident that your sore throat is due to something other than HIV. Five days is too early for the onset of sore throat or other ARS symptoms due to acquisition of HIV. 

Would you have recommended testing or PEP for this kind of exposure?

Regards,

One last follow up question is it typical of ARS to show only slight disconfort/pain in the throat during the 10-18 days window of the exposure with no other symptoms? Cause I had a slight discomfort in the throat with little phelgm in between those days with no other symptoms.

I hope the information I have provided has been helpful. As you know, we provide up to three responses to each clients question. Is this is my third response, the thread will be closed shortly. EWH.
