What Are The Chances Of STD Transmission Through Open Cut?

Hi there, Last night I had an encounter with a female prostitute in London, UK. I rubbed her vagina (I didn t actually insert my fingers into her however), it felt wet. Afterwards I noticed I had a cut on my finger, it was small but had bled quite a lot so possibly a deep cut. She also rubbed her vagina / anus on my crotch but I was wearing my underwear while this happened. I m worried that fluid from her could have got into the cut. Should I get tested / seek PEP due to this?

Dear patient,

chances of std like hiv or hepatitis through this kind of contact are very very slim to none. Even though you had a small cut, just from rubbing the outside vagina there is most likely almost no chance of transmission.

Hope this is helping you , if you have any clarificatons you can get back to me, if this was helpful please kindly rate my answer. Best regards

I find this answer helpful
