If you did a BBFS with a provider and there is no sign or symptoms of std, like burn when pee or discharge from the penis, does that mean you are std free? I guess the only way to find out is to get tested. BBFS feel so good but scared afterwards lmao.

Google rates of STD infection among sex workers. The risks are pretty high. As others have pointed out, even covered, there is risk. But without protection, you are at much higher risk of HIV, herpes and thinks like syphilis. Don't go by symptoms, just get checked. Bareback is extremely risky. Not judging but don't lie to yourself about what you may be exposing yourself t9 when you do that.

I rode bare back in the civilian / bar scene world for a LONG TIME with no problems. About 5 yrs ago. I went crazy in the AMP world and Bare backed the hell out of a LOT of fine asian ladies. But NEVER would go for it with a not hat openly offered it for an upgrade. Long story short. Combine that experience with some broken rubbers with escorts. I decided to get check. And had no symptoms. I used STD C H E C K. C. o m. Went to a local lab corp. And results given by email. It will be the worst 3 days you your life. And you will question every time you dipped it in bare. But worth the peace of mind.

Lab Corp has no idea why you are there. Could be random work drug testing for all they know.

I highly recommend MGH. They are non-judgemental so be honest with them as to whether you pay for sex, participate in bareback, etc. It will help them to treat you better and reccomend how to participate in this hobby in a safer manner. They are more interested in helping people than passing judgement. I usually get tested there once or twice per year and have never had a bad experience there. Payment is voluntary. I have paid nothing (when I was unemployed years ago) and have also contributed what I could afford. Results in about a week. Get there early though as the wait can be kind of long. https://www.massgeneral.org/infectio...s.aspx?id=1893.

Why you would put up with discomfort for 4-5 weeks is beyond comprehension. Anti-biotics would have cleared it up in days. I got chlamydia from Ho's number one girl back in the day (just lose your best facebook friend, buddy?) but I was rubbing my cock all over her. Little did I know she was with 10-15-20 guys (before he dropped her off at my place. (you fucking scumbag prick) It was the first time in 16 years of experience in the field that that happened. A year later I got gonorrhea from a DCD girl and what a fucking trip that was. Again, rubbing my cock on her. Doc gave me one pill for the G and whatever it was, it worked. But the sweats, pain, puddles of water I woke up in for 2 or so days was brutal. Happy 50th! To me.

When I got chlamydia, I too waited as the symptoms arose. It was slow but I had left for a job down the vineyard and could have scored IRL with a cute bartender. Thinking I had an issue I didn't pull it off. Total bummer. My piss was cloudy with gradual irritation and discharge and test was positive. I got a bill for the tests afterwards from a lab. When I got the G, I took a piss before I went there and then when I went there gave a urine sample and she remarked that it looked clean. I think that messed up the read (30 minutes between samples) as the test came out negative from the clinic, according to them, BUT I never got a bill from the lab. I don't think they sent it in I think she just gave me the pill and let me off the hook for the lab payment thinking that my piss looked clean and called me to tell me negative and by then I had already cycled thru the illness and was baffled by the negative diagnosis. My theory only. The little head would love to see them both, go figure. On another note the female doctor at the clinic was smokin' hot. Asked me if I had been there before. Ah, yeah, last year.

Yes the risk is there on BBFS or covered for that matter. Happens in this hobby. If you are going to indulge in this hobby, get yourself tested at the right time. I have had 5 scares so far that I thought was some sort of STD and test each time with negative results. Lots of on line places you can go too get a lab to test. If you are active in the hobby, BB or covered. Get tested at least once a year. It is not that expensive and is a good way to ensure you are not infecting the rest of us. Pay attention to the incubation periods, as you what to get the best bang for you buck.

BTW. All of the scares turned out to be irritated urethritis caused by a condom. It lasted each time about 4 to 5 weeks of discomfort and burning with no discharge. Went away by itself without any antibiotic. Each time I tested and was checked by a doctor. I guess condoms are not an option for me. I will not do BB so I guess it is HJ only for me. Sucks, when I was young condoms were no problem. Oh well. Getting old sucks.

It could be the spermicidal lubricant they use on condoms that's causing you irritation. Try different brands, or unlubricated condoms (add your own lube that you don't react to to improve sensation and reduce risk of breakage).

Could also be a latex allergy, so try non-latex. The spermicide is the most likely culprit though, reactions are fairly common. Ironically irritation caused by spermicidal lubricants actually increases your chances of an STD. If I recall correctly Durex stopped using spermicidal lubricant because of how common reactions were, but Trojan is still using it. Not sure about other brands.

Stay safe, and happy hunting.

How would you know, unless you were only partaking in BBBJ all the time with no other activities?

This has some good info:

Just curious if anyone has ever tested positive for any STD from BBBJ? I know very few can be passed that way but it is possible and I'm just curious about it. Thanks.

Chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and herpes (both types) can all be transmitted orally. Females are more likely to get it from a BBBJ than males for obvious reasons. Transmission rates for males are low, but possible.

I did get chlamydia once about 15 years ago from a BBBJ, but that was one time out of the literally thousands of BBBJ's I've gotten in the last 20+ years.

Stay safe, and happy hunting.

There are places to get tested that do not require a Id.

Thanks! I had no idea that was possible. Can anyone provide the name of a place to get tested without I'd? PM is fine if that is preferred. And what about treatment, is that possible without I'd?

I understand that if I test positive for an STD the test provider is required to report the result to the state Board of Health. My concern is that I do not want my wife to find out. Is she likely to be informed by doctor / lab / Board of Health? My wife and I have not had sex in years (hence my hobby) so there is no risk to her. How can I minimize the risk of my privacy being compromised?
