Q: Can I Get Aids If... (please Help)

What if I never had a guy cum in me, can I still get aids? Please help. I have had sex with two or three guys (all long term boyfriends, like 1 year or more) and also like one or two other times also. I am scared because I am 21 and I never been to a doctor for any sort of feminine check up. I can not afford it. Also, I am shy and scared to see a doctor, also because I do not want my family to know so I do not know which mailing address to give them. What are any signs or ways I can know myself? Thanks.
Please help! Any info can help.

Well sweetie you can get aids from kissing someone if a person has aids and you kisses him/her and you have a cut in your mouth and his spit gets in it you can get aids and there is no signs of having aids it takes aids about 6 months to be seen in a test and the reason I know all of this is b/c my ungle had aids and died from them so I know a few things about it

Like princess said you can get aids just from swopping spit, but if you have not been to the gyno, its time to go. Especially if you have had multiple partners. If you do not want your parents to know, you should go and try to find a planned parenthood in your area. They are as far as I know free. I went there when I was 16 and wanted to get on birth control. They examened me and gave me bc pills for like 4 months. I went there, because I did not want my mother knowing I was having sex, and they kepted it confidential. I don't know, but I think they are still free. It was 10 years ago. But you really need to go get checked out for your own well being. Good luck.

Dazed, you can get hiv and many other sexually transmitted diseases if you dont use a condom. And remember that sex includes anal, oral, and vaginal. Yes you can get things like herpes and gonorrhea in your mouth/throat too. Also, there are diseases you can get even if it is protected... Such as genital warts and herpes. Also remember that just because he doesn't "cum" inside you doesn't mean that fluid is not being released during intercourse. The only thing I can tell you is that if you are having unprotected sex you should make sure you are tested on a regular basis. Make sure both you and your partner are tested for chlamydia, syphillis, hiv, and hepatitis b. You should also be tested for syphillis and hiv again after 6 months to make sure there was nothing incubating that did not show up on the first test. After that you should be fine if you remain with only that person and that person is only with you. If you change partners, make sure they are tested prior to having any form of sex. If you have anymore questions you may e-mail me as I am new to this forum and not sure how often I will have a chance to look at the posts. Also, www.Cdc.Gov has lots of good information on the subject if you want to look there (center for disease control). I work in public health so if I don't know the answer to your questions I can surely find something out for you.

You also have to consider regular health problems. I mean, you should definately get a pap test. Your family should not look down on that. I mean, even people who are not sexually active have to get annual exams from the gyno. You have to be very careful. You could have something that they can catch and get rid of before there is any long term damage.
