I received oral 8 months ago and thats the only sexual thing ive done. should i be worried bout hiv?

is 8 months enough time to check?
i want to do a home test

Contrary to popular belief, a man receiving oral is not considered a "high risk", especially with HIV. Why? Because HIV doesn't survive well in saliva. Check out the link below, it should ease your mind.

Yes you can get HIV from oral. If you had any open sores at the time of the "act" his bodily fluids could have entered your system. Hopefully he is not an HIV carrier.

Yes, it usually takes up to 6 months to be completely accurate.

Glad to see people being smart and getting themselves check,
even after only oral.
That's how I got an STD...
