Email 448: Worried About Oral sex and Digital Manipulation

Hi Poxxie!!

I've been conscious about hiv. Been tested several times since 2010. The results are negative. Hepa B, VDRL are negative as well. The last hiv test was may 2013 and negative as well. 

Been practicing casual sex, however, i do make sure for safe sex and no anal sex. I preferred to be be top. I seldom give oral sex I don't like the feeling. I am the receiver of oral sex. 

Email 447: On HIV Transmission

Hi Pozzie,

Im not sure kung tama ba na dito ako magsend ng mail ko regarding my concern, anyway here's my story, last night i engaged in an anal sex with a guy where i was the top. before we do the anal, he sucked my penis for about 1 minute then i insisted na itry namin ang anal sex, so nagcondom ako tapos first attempt na ipapasok ko na, masakit daw so dinamihan ko ang lube so sa second attempt pumasok naman, the pumping lasted for 1 minute,nilabas ko muna penis ko kasi nanlalambot. so i masturbated my penis with the condom on para magpatigas , nung ready na ulit, bigla niya sinabi na ayaw na niya kasi masakit daw so i removed the condom and started to masturbate hanggang sa magcum. eto po yung gumugulo sa isip ko, when i enter the bathroom para maghugas, nakita ko na may mga dugo yung kamay ko at penis ko, Ask ko po kung my risk ba ako since  
nagmasturbate ako ng may dugo yung kamay ko na galing sa anus niya. Hindi naman po nagbreak yung condom,.so sa madaling salita po, dinugo siya while were doing the anal sex tapos hinawakan ko yung condom na may dugo na pala tapos hinawak ko sa penis ko para magmasturbate.. please help.. maingat po ako makipag sex kaya lng may mga chance talaga na hindi maiiwasan kagaya ng ganto, Thanks.

Email 413: Had Unprotected Sex Before


I never had an HIV test ever since I had sex with men. I am 23 years old now and started sex 3 years ago. I was fucked with 2 persons (without condom), and with two individuals, one with condom and the other has not. These were all happened by intervals of months to have sex again, and it was 3 years ago.  

But then I never liked to be in bottom so I had tried to have sex with different guys where I’m on top, mostly I never use condom, and sometimes I just get an oral sex. Most probably, 2 years I’m on top until now. I really got worried about my condition and health now. So far in that course, I never had gone into really flu or illnesses whatsoever that has to do with HIV symptoms, not in particular situation that I can remember. I have fairly rashes but I guess I got it when I had couple drinks during the night and it appears after a day/s or an hours. As I remember, I really get flu once in a year, but not really after sex  
within week or weeks. Maybe I am really scared to be tested. I don’t know what to do when it resulted to positive. I know these all can’t really be my bases, but I want to know my status. I want to have a baby. I am working and Sunday is my off. If you can reach me please contact me. XXX. I am from Paco, Manila.

Email 412: On Oral Sex and HIV

Hi Pozziepinoy,

Before anything else, I want to say that you are really an amazing person continuing to live on. I hope I do get your fighting spirit. Anyway. Tanong ko lang, gaano kalaki yung risk...may naka oral sex ako nung dec 1 and nalasahan ko yung lumabas. I checked my mouth after and thankfully wala naman akong ulcers or sugat. I gargled povidone iodine (not brushed my mouth) pagkatapos ng encounter na yun since baka magkasugat ako if magbrubrush agad. I know there is always a risk involved and I already know the 3 month window period. Napaparanoid nanaman ako kaiisip. please help me. I was diagnosed with depression and pinapalala pa ng pagiging paranoid and hypochondriac ( isip ng isip na may sakit) ko. I know mali yung ginawa ko at sobrang nagsisi ako.

More power to you :)

Good day!

pozzie let me tell to you my story. last week of october 2012 i had an unprotected sex with this guy then december 2012 i take my 1st hiv test non reactive naman siya tapos january to february we had sex again but now protected sex lahat. then may 2013 nag take ulit ako ng hiv test and non reactive ulit ang result my question is...

1. conclusive na ba ung hiv test ko?
2. may ilang symptoms ako na naramdaman like chill, sorethroat, backpain  
pero paminsan minsan lang. is it a sign that im hiv positive?
3. yung last protected sex ko is february pero i noticed some blood on my  
anus when i wiped it pero a day after wala na. is it possible that im  
infected now with hiv with regards on that incidence?
4. nag pa test yung partner ko negative nman siya. pwede bang ako magkaroon  
ng hiv tapos siya wala kahit siya lang yung partner ko eversince?
5. panu ba napapasa ang hiv? pwede bang magsimula siya sa katawan ng taong  
walang virus kahit negative yung partner niya?

thanks in advance

Email 614: Questions


I had sex with prostitute 1 week ago but with condom for just 1 minute penetration. I stopped because she bleeds. Payat ang lower portion nya at bagsak ang boobs. Im not worrying on the 1-minute or shorter penetration as I used condom but my worry is yung oral sex she gave me and the blood over the condom na tinanggal ko at nagwash agad ako.

I will do the test but please enlighten me on 4 things:

Email 414: About Rashes and HIV Transmission


Good day sir,

First of all I am really thankful about your blog, it really helps a lot of people, Especially me, this blog opens my mind about practicing safe sex to avoid the spread of HIV.


I came across your blog because of my dilemma before, I can say that I had almost all of the symptoms relating to ARS after about 4 weeks after high risk exposure ( unprotected sex ) before, with the help of your blog, after 3 months post exposure,  I took the initiative take the test in RITM clinic, luckily its non reactive and repeat the test again after  5 1/2 weeks of exposure with also non reactive result. Since then I promised myself that I will never engage on risky sex again to people with unknown status.

Email 392: Exposure and "PLHIV Prescription"


Greetings,

Hope all is well.

I am gay, discreet, and a professional in the field of  education.  
I am an avid reader of your blog and I've been monitoring my  encounters ever since I practiced getting tested every six months at RITM Malate.

I have been an advocate of  safer sex  since I embraced this lifestyle.  Unfortunately, I had a high risk encounter  last June 24, 2013.
