New to punting, had some worries

[naterb]

Tonight I decided to test the waters and found a girl 20 mins away with decent reviews and looked legit that does 15min OWO for 40 quid. It all went pretty well, but since it was my first time with a WG, I'm getting a bit of retrospective hypochondria.

What do you guys do to stay safe? How often do you frequent GUM clinics and how does that all work? Ever had anything happen? Do help me put my mind at ease!

There no correlation, between price and quality, when it comes to W/G (IMO).

What services did you have Naterb ?

There is a section about STI's in the WIKI, you may find that info useful

Thanks, I completely missed those! Will have a read. Only a OWO, and now that I think about it, sex with a condom is probably safer than oral without... maybe should have started with that. Feeling sort of foolish for not insisting on a condom.

Life is full of maybes, hope you enjoyed at the time

OWO is not risk free but I consider it low risk for me personally, and have never tested positive for anything in 20 years thank the punting gods.  Some people however are not so lucky.

Maybe read up on getting tested, and then get tested to put yourself at ease.

Do much of my punting in Thailand and had dozens of bbbjs without catching anything. Chances are youre fine mate.

Did you check the dates of her certificates when you met her?

All clean pro$$ies will have up to date certificates available, some frame them and have them on the wall with their massage diplomas and others tend to laminate them and keep them in a folder for clients to check.

Who was she, perhaps someone can check her on the GUM database to reassure you, fingers crossed she's up to date on her certs

Personally I take photocopies with my scanner app.

that is the one thing have never looked at in 20 years of punting.

Certificate inspection is next on my bucket list !

Personally I take responsibility for my own health not in some prossies certificate.

Had no idea that was even a thing. Thanks, will keep that in mind. It was her External Link/Members Only and she's been reviewed here a lot so didn't feel sketchy, but you never know.

 In general OP. If you are going to take part in this hobby, you should go get checked twice a year or so, some are more frequent than that.  Most WGs (popular ones especially) get checked every two months, but of course who knows what happens between.

Put your mind at ease, you are fine.

I think you can ease up on the worry, many here will testify to decades of owo without any trauma. If you are a worrier though you might be better off wrapping up in general. Avoid skanky street wgs and obvious drug use if possible to minimise hep b exposure etc. If you see any sign of a mouth cold sore switch to a request for doggy, saves embarrassment and any potential herpes. Apart from that take comfort in the anecdotal consensus that you are more likely to catch something from a tinder one night stand than from a recommended wg on here.

And of course you know all this due to the extensive number of reviews you've done, I admire the way your opening line is always the same "I enter and ask to check her Certs before handing over the cash"

Oh no! Wait, hang on......sorry I'm mixing you up with someone who's actually met a prossie!!

[naterb]

Ok that got me good. Of course he was, I'm too gullible.

  it's ok, the worry had you clouded. Honestly don't worry and if you need peace of mind, get checked at the Gum clinic to put your mind at ease 

[Steely Dan]

I'm going to have to report the lot of you ... you have all gone all fluffy-wuffie.

[Mrsimple]

You only got to worry about herpes that shit don't go...

Yes. I stopped punting when my cock dropped off.
