A female United States age 26-29, *levatorgirl writes:

So in health class weve been talking about STDS and aids and how it is transmitted through any kind of sex. Two years ago i used to give my now ex blowjobs, but i usually didnt swallow the cum except for once or twice.But my health teacher told us theres a place in our city that will test you and they wont tell your parents or anything. so im wondering should i be tested just to be extra safe? I dont like my ex at all anymore and find him very anoying so getting a test with him is out, and i highly doubt any of my closer friends would want to come with me, so is getting an aids test by yourself scary? Do i even need one?

A simple blood test will tell you if you are HIV positive or not! It is not scary. Even if you feel scared all the wiating time once you get to know that result whatever it is you won't be scared anymore.

faenon agony auntYour health teacher advises you of the clinic yet since your sexually active you know you wouldn't be having this worry if you practised safe sex even if it is just oral sex a condom protects you as well as him.

petina1 agony auntGo to a health clinic, it's all confidential. A blood test or a swab is all it takes. You may have to wait for the result I'm not sure now for how long but they'll let you know. STD's especially Gonhorrea are on a massive increase so it's all the STD's they will be checking out including AIDS/HIV. Unprotected sex is a ticking time bomb now and anyone who has multiple partners are at the most risk.

I really don't think you need to worry. But to put your mind at ease you should probably get one

dirtball agony auntIt's nit that scary. Usually it is done with a blood test, but there is a new method that uses a cheek swab.

Getting tested for std's is always a good idea when you are sexually active.

Go get tested. They say you're HIV positive until you know your status...lol. It is quite scary, especially when you're waiting for your results. But dont be afraid, chances are very slim of contracting HIV through blowjobs, you should be ok. Its better to know your status to put your mind at rest.
