Home / Answered Questions / Hello, Just a quick question, I received a handjob from a lady (STI status unknown) and during the handjob she accidentally cut my penis due to her long nails. There was some blood coming out but she still continued with the handjob and I ejaculated. Do I have any STI risk? (assuming she has STI). And do you think I need to go for any testing? I’m worried because there was blood involved and it was a fresh cut from her nails.

Hi there,

I don’t think you need to worry about STIs from this situation. It sounds like the only blood and body fluids involved came from you – and you can’t catch an STI from your own body fluids!

If she also had a bleeding cut on her hand, and her blood got into your cut, I might advise you get a Hepatitis C test in about 2-4 months. But otherwise, I don’t think there is any risk of you getting an STI from this.

Let us know if that answers your question,
