[Question #12847] Giving handjob

4 months ago

Hi Doctors

I had an encounter with a trans woman where I gave her a handjob, she did not cum but maybe had a little bit of precum. I kept my hand on myself separate from my hand on her as to not increase my risk.

What are the risks of getting a sti on my hand from this encounter.

Also did not get any look really because from behind if she had any lesions present

Welcome to the Forum. Thanks for your questions. I’ll be glad to comment and hope that my reassurance that this was a no risk encounter. Mutual masturbation is a no risk activity, even if partners get each other’s genital secretions on one another. There is no medical or scientific reason for testing. Please don’t worry. You’re in the clear. EWH---

Thank you Dr. Hook

No need to keep an eye on any herpes or anything on my hand?

I repeat, there is virtually no risk of acquiring any STI from receipt of masturbation. That includes herpes EWH.---

I’m sorry I don’t want to be repetitive and waste your time…but I was the o e giving the masturbation. Does that change anything?

This is repetitive. And, this will be my final response. Receipt if masturbation is a virtually no risk event. If anything, performing masturbation is still lower risk. . The WHO, the CDC, and experts all agree on this. EWH---
