Brief Answer:
You can go for repeat testing after one month.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

Welcome to HCM.

The risk of contracting HIV from unprotected oral sex is very unlikely even if the women status was positive; so nothing to worry. HIV RNA test at 9 days is negative which is also in your favor though it is not so conclusive. Get tested again after one month to get more accurate and reliable result.

Thank You

It is very unlikely.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

Welcome back and thanks for follow-up.

You can have some oral infections with blow job if hygeine is poor but very rare to get any STD so no need to worry about that. Get tested after 1 month to relieve your anxiety or stress of getting HIV.

No you can not.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

Welcome back once again.

You can not get HIV from blow job because human saliva is not the fluid which transmits HIV so calm down, forget the episode and move on in life.
