Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
Not all STD's present with symptoms right after sexual contact.
Protected sex is considered to be relatively safe in terms of HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia.
Herpes, warts and molluscum can still be transmitted.
Unprotected sex is no doubt more risky as compared to protected sex. Of course the longer the sex continues the more are the chances of acquiring an STD from unprotected sex but an STD cannot be dismissed just because sex lasted for a few seconds.
You need to test at appropriate intervals for STD's. Herpes can be tested earliest at 2 weeks; HIV and syphilis (VDRL) can be tested earliest at 1 month, to be repeated at 3 months.
The symptoms to look out for include urethral discharge, burning on passing urine, genital erosions Or ulcers, genital growths Or warts and inguinal swelling etc.
If you notice any of these signs or symptoms you must immediately get it checked with a specialist.
Regards
