[Question #13916] Using mouth to put on condom

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.
Today I received oral sex. When receiving the oral sex, the condom was placed on using her mouth. Being that I am not circumcised, condoms tend to get hung up on the foreskin. She attempted twice to roll it down being successful the third time.
Her lips/mouth definitely made contact with the shaft of my penis and when receiving the oral sex she was able to make it all the way down the Shaft to uncovered areas at the base of my penis.
In case it is relative, I trimmed my ionic hair yesterday including the shaft of my penis.
I didn’t notice any sort of marks or anything alarming on her mouth or nose, that would lead me to believe she had any sort of STD, but I did not get an in depth look.
Does the expose to potential STIs?

Welcome to the Forum. Thanks for your questions. I'll be glad to comment. The encounter you describe was low risk. Most commercial sex workers do not have STIs and when they due, the likelihood of transmission through oral sex is relatively uncommon- certainly far less than half of unprotected encounters involving receipt of oral sex from an infected partner lead in infection It is not uncommon for commercial sex workers to put condoms on clients using their mouths. Further, there are no proven cases in which HIV has been acquired from receipt of oral sex- none at all.
In your case, despite her difficulty in rolling it down over your foreskin, the tip of your penis was almost certainly covered, minimizing the risk of the most common STIs, gonorrhea and, more rarely with oral sex, chlamydia. That you had trimmed your geital hair earlier does not change this assessment.
In your situation, I would have no concerns whatsoever. That said, testing is always a personal choice and there is no downside to testing if you would feel better with negative tests. You can test and receive conclusive results for gonorrhea and chlamydia any time more than 3-4 days following your encounter. If you wish to test for HIV and syphilis, blood tests for these infections will be conclusive any time more than 6 weeks from now.
I hope that hths information is helpful. Please don't worry. EWH

Hi Dr,
Thank you for the reassurance. I was more so concerned about the chances of herpes being transmitted being that not all of my shaft was covered. It has been 3 days Since the encounter, if I did contract herpes when could
I expect it to show?
Sidebar - for quite some time, and well before this encounter when I have a bowel movement I notice there is white/yellowish discharge that comes from penis, very similar to semen. It’s only during bowel movements and no discomfort during urination. Any particular insight on this?

Your risk of Herpes is low. HSV-2 is virtually never acquired from oral sex and if your one of the more than 50% of persons who has BHV-1 ( most of whom do not know it) you cannot get HSV-1. Further, the condom, even though it was difficult to get on, reduced your risk lower.
If you were going to develop HSV lesions they would occur within 10 days and, typically by 5-7. I think you’re worrying more than you need to.
Regarding the discharge during bowel movements. On occasion bowel movements can express prostate fluid. This may be what is going on. EWH
