Thanks for your amazing service. I had unprotected oral briefly in Indonesia. There is no reason for me to think the girl has any STD of any kind, however due to my anxiety, just checking my understanding is correct that HIV testing wouldn’t be required after this incident from a medical viewpoint and chance of any other STDs is low? Thank you

Sorry, Just to be clear, I received unprotected oral sex from the woman.

Welcome to our Forum.  Thanks for your question and your confidence in our service.  I'll be glad to comment.  The exposure you describe was virtually no risk for HIV and very low risk for other STIs.  Most people, even most commercial sex workers do not have STIs, when they do, oral infections are less common than genital infections and transmission of oral infections is a biologically inefficient process (i.e. it does not usually occur).  There are NO proven cases of HIV acquired from receipt of oral sex and of other STIs, gonorrhea, which becomes symptomatic in over 90% of cases within 3-5 days of exposure, is most common.  I would have no concerns about HIV from this encounter and if asymptomatic, very little concern about other STIs. ---

Thank you. So no testing for hiv required based on the exposure and can choose to get an sti check but no reason too unless have symptoms. And I can move forward based on this. Is that all correct? Thank yoi

There is no medical or scientific reason for testing following receipt of unprotected oral sex.  I encourage you to move forward without concern.  EWH---

Many thanks for the reassurance. I forgot to say I briefly performed oral sex on her as well. Does any of your advice regarding HIV testing change? Thank you

Thanks for the additional information.  This does not change my assessment of advice.---
