Depends on the kind of sex, what genders are involved, and who's harboring the infection.
In general, unprotected heterosexual vaginal intercourse has a low transmission rate (in the neighborhood of 1/300-1/1000 chance of infection per act of intercourse). Females are more readily infected by male partners than males are infected by female partners (aka easier to transmit the virus from male->female than female->male).
Unprotected anal intercourse (male-male or male-female) significantly increases the infection rate (1/10 to 1/100 infection risk per act of intercourse are commonly reported).
There is some thought that transfer of infected macrophages is required to transmit the infection, and that transmission of free virions alone is not sufficient or less effective in establishing new infection (which may account for the relatively low transmission rates). Lot of work going on here right now.
Bottom line, however, is that 1/1000 risk is still certainly not worth a few minutes of unprotected sex. Wrap it up, particularly if you don't know anything of your partner's HIV status. Despite the fact that female-male vaginal transmission is difficult, heterosexuals are currently the fastest growing HIV-positive segment of the population.

Your probabilities of catching any venereal ailment is relatively extreme once you have unprotected intercourse, tremendously, with prostitutes who do no longer insist a condom be used. If I have been you, i might get examined a minimum of for a 12 months. HIV would not coach in the blood circulate as we communicate. usually it takes approximately six months to a 12 months in the previous it ensue in a blood try from the time you have been uncovered to the ailment. word of advice, prepare risk-free intercourse.
