What Are The Chances Of HIV Infection With Non Penetrative Intercourse?
Brief Answer:
There is a possibility
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I am Dr Mittal. I have read your query. I think I would be able to help you.
The fact remains that the infective organisms largely reside in the mucosa and the mucus fluid.
If you have been in contact with an infected part, the risk of transmission of the infection is always possible.
Of course, the possibility of getting the infection is low considering that the mucosa of your body has not been in contact. I hope that you washed your finger and private parts well after the episode.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information helps you. Please feel free to contact us for more information. Best of luck. Dr Mittal.

Hi - thanks for the answer
I fell alsleep immediately after the episode and did not wash until I woke up approximately three or four hours later . Is this a concern that I did not wash sooner?
What about the kissing of her breasts and body? Could something have been transmitted to my mouth because I was also touching her body with the finger I used to finger her vagina?
Should I go to my doctor and get tested?

Brief Answer:
testing is a good idea
Detailed Answer:
Hi
The possibility of infection is there. You applied her vaginal secretions on her skin and then licked the same area possibly causing the transmission.
And yes testing would be a good idea.

How worried or concerned do I need to be as I have never done something like this before.
Also how soon should I get tested? I am currently on vacation and will not be home for a few more days.
Is there a standard test i need to request or tests? What do I need to get tested for?
Meant to say - what all do I need to get tested for?

Brief Answer:
You need to meet the local physician
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I will suggest you need to meet the local physician.
There are many STDs.
And each one has a separate test.
So you will basically need to know what type of infections are prevalent in that area.
For this, meeting a local physician will be a more apt step.
Concerns are there. However if it was a legal sex worker, she was probably safe.
I hope that the information helps you.
Best of luck.

I will be home in 3 more days - should I just wait?
