Question : Hello. Last night I was very inebriated at a bar and began getting physical with a woman. There was never any penetration, as I could not get my penis to stay erect, but the tip of my penis definitely rubbed her wet vagina a few times. When I pulled away I could feel the wetness on top of my penis, but nowhere else. There was no other contact between our genitalia. I feel absolutely horrible. Should I be worried about having contacted an STI? Thankyou so much.

Brief Answer: Risk is genuine Detailed Answer: Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic I am Dr. Kakkar. I have gone through your concern and I have understood it. This is an exposure, no way to sugar coat it. You should get tested for STIs. If negative you can stop worrying. Someone could get any three of these STDs e.g Syphilis, Herpes, HPV, Molluscum from just rubbing genitals together during sex. Try to practice safer sex with condoms all the time. Have yourself screened for HIV and syphilis and other STDs and keep healthy. regards take care regards

Thank you so much for your response. When is the earliest that I can get tested for these infections? Can I do it right away or do I need to wait a couple weeks to get accurate results? Thank you again.
