A member asked:

I had anal sex with a guy (i was the bottom) he didn't have a condom so i didn't let him penetrate me but he was playing around that area. hiv risk?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: HIV is transferred through blood contact by a contageous person to a recipient. The rough nature of anal sex does increase the risk it can transfer this way, since even minor abrasions can bleed/expose one to blood. If there was no blood/no rough contact, the male was HIV negative or well controlled on meds, the risk would be low.
