Hello all,

I have never gone to a massage parlor before and I went to Swedish Touch in the weekend. The lady performed oral and vaginal intercourse on me. I did sense some pain when she gave me the oral because it feels like she kind of bit me. After the vaginal intercourse, I noticed a small blood clot on the tip of my penis. I am worried that the condom was punctured somehow (by teeth or hand) and the fluids were exhanged during sex. I am worried and can't sleep for two days....I understand that I should not have gone there and I regret so much.

Can someone tell me that if I have a risk of STD/hiv infection?
I don't know how safe are the ladies in those downtown massage parlors.

thanks everyone!!

Thank you and waiting

Thank you moderator.
Thanks everyone for the input, but I am waiting for the professional advice.

My concern is that is it possible to bit a small hole through condoms. The clot itself is very small. The lady did use lubricant during intercourse. I would like to know the risk and nessecity for testing.

thanks and appreciate it.

Hi YJL

Sorry about the delay.

It is very hard to diagnose conditions over the internet, but given the situation we can certainly give some advice on what you can do next.

In measuring your risk I will go through a few possibilities;

The oral sex you received may have caused trauma to the head of your penis from a bite or a great deal of suction. In both of those situations there is the possibility that the latex of the condom remained intact which meant you would have had protected oral and vaginal intercourse. If this is the case you would be at low risk for transmission of STD/HIV.

Another possibility is that during oral sex the condom did get a hole in it and you had unprotected oral and vaginal intercourse. Usually when you get a hole in the condom, the hole gets larger with friction and the condom completely falls apart. It is possible that if there was a small hole on the very tip of the condom the condom would not break during intercourse. If the hole remained small there would be less body fluid exchange, therefore less risk of STD/HIV.

It sounds like the condom did not completely fall apart so the other possibilities are that there was a small hole or that it remained intact. In terms of STD/HIV risk both of these situations are better than not using a condom.

It is impossible to know someone’s STD/HIV status, but by using condoms for oral and vaginal sex the both of you are practicing safer sex. Hand jobs and protected oral sex are lower risk than vaginal and anal sex. Everyone must determine what risks related to sex they are comfortable with. This is a very individual choice based on your circumstances

We would recommend the following:

Get tested for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis and HIV one week after contact. Remember there is a window period of about 3 months before syphilis and HIV would show in your blood. So you would retest in 3 months. If you develop symptoms you would get tested straight away.

We also recommend the vaccine for hepatitis B for all sexually active people. If you have not had the vaccine, discuss it with the health professional when you get tested.

Have a look at our thread of what to do if the condom breaks.

do hep b shots require booster?

Hi doughboy001

As long as you have had the series of 3 shots there is no recommendation for a booster shot at this point in time. This applies for people with a healthy immune system.

Immunocompromised persons (e.g. HIV infection) may need booster shots. You would need to see your doctor about this and they would assess your individual situation.

rapid hiv tests

I wonder why there is not more access to rapid HIV tests. I understand these tests do not require the 3 month window. They have been proven to be reliable in tests with the Toronto Hassle Free clinic.
I have also heard beginning anti retral virus medication immediately after contact is recommended.
Why don't Canadians have access to rapid tests?

Hi my2cents

With this comment do you mean if you have had a risky situation should you take the HIV medication straight away or do you mean if you are infected with HIV you should take the medication straight away?

In relation to the first one we have done a thread on post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), which is here.

https://perb.cc/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=44070

PEP is the taking of HIV medication (for 1 month) soon after a risky situation. They believe that by doing this you may reduce your risk to HIV infection. Have a read of the above thread for more details. Keep in mind that there are real risks (side effects) to taking the medication and it is only recommended in high-risk situations (you need to consult with a doctor) e.g. unprotected vaginal sex with someone you know is HIV positive.

Hi my2cents

There is a range of new HIV tests that are coming on the market, some of these are rapid in that they give you the results straight away and other are rapid in that they do not have the 3 month window period.

There is a rapid HIV test that has been developed by a Richmond company. It is rapid in that it will give you your result in 60 seconds.

Their web site is:

http://www.biolytical.com/

this test still has the 3-month window period.

The other type of test that has been developed is the HIV nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT). This technology is great in that it reduces the window period for HIV testing. In one method of batching several specimens of bloods together 95% of people would show a positive result between 8.4 days and 9.6 days after infection.

The main reason for the delay in these tests is funding. There is a great deal of money invested in the ELISA testing and it is seen as the gold standard around the world in HIV testing. The only problem with it is the long window period.

At this point in time in BC we are hoping to offer the HIV NAT test in the next couple of years.
