Dear Doctors
I am a straight male (30) living in the UAE. I have been single 12 months and have only just entered into the dating scene again in recent months.
I have not had sexual intercourse or oral sex since I separated with my ex-GF. I had an HIV blood test as part of my residency renewal in September (3 months after our separation) and it was negative.
HIV is my biggest concern due to the compulsory testing every 2 years.
I have seen 4 women from dating apps since being single. The sexual activities were as follows:
Woman A: open-mouth French kissing.
Woman B: open-mouth French kissing, sucked her breasts; and fingered her vagina (there was some blood contact on my fingers).
Woman C: open and closed mouth kissing.
Woman D: received an unprotected handjob (she may have touched herself since the room was dark).
I do not know the STI statuses of either woman. They all had respectable jobs (i.e. not sex workers).
I have browsed historic answers on the forum and see that for there to be any risk of HIV, there must be unprotected penile-vaginal or penile-anal penetration (I do not use drug needles).
I have visited my local STI clinic about these events and they have advised the same - stating that there is no need to worry about these events and I do not need any HIV testing.
Am I clear of HIV and can I move on without any worries at all?
