Posted on Sat, 24 Jun 2017
Question: I deep kissed a XXXXXXX man about one year ago. I had about 5-6 sessions of briefly doing this. At no time did I taste any blood (though once our outer lower mouths hit together). there was no anal or oral sex. He did say he had herpes, but hasnt had an outbreak in 2 years. Am I at risk for HIV?

Brief Answer:
not likely any risk of HIV.

Detailed Answer:
Hello! I have been through your question.

Based on your history, without having anal and oral sex but just briefly deep kiss without the existence of any lesion and blood contact, I think that there is no risk for HIV.

But you should know that exist a possibility to get HSV-1 infection even without the presence of symptoms.

Please, you shouldn't worry because there doesn't seem to be any risk of HIV.

I hope my answer helps you.
Feel free to ask me further.
Regards.
