***** my risk please

***** my risk please

I have been here before and was greatly helped by everyone saying I was OK and true enough I was. Now, for a recent incident. I went to a girlie bar in the Philippines and the lady goes up on my chair, lifts her skirt and rubs her crotch area on my face. She had her underwear on by the way.I know this is a no risk activity but what if she had her period. Could you be infected if blood from her sanitary napkin may have seeped into her panties and rubbed against my eyes and infect me. Or, if some menstrual blood from her crotch area or sanitary napkin may have seeped through her panties and touched my mouth area. I had a slight chapped lip at the time. I also drank some water immediately after the incident and also worried that whatever menstrual blood (if any) where on my lips could have entered my body with the water given that I had a sore on my tongue. I know, I probably sound crazy given that, the girl had her underwear on and she was probably not on her period and that these are more what if scenarios. Does these scenarios even warrant a test?

You were never at risk.

I probably have some OCD issues and it would help me a  lot if I knew the reasons why the scenarios above would be no risk. I used to think that the virus exposed to air would kill the virus but I read that air does not really kill the virus. Is it because, other factors in the environment can also kill the virus?

Sometimes I actually feel that I must be crazy thinking of all this what if scenarios and that the worst case scenario of menstrual blood seeping from a sanitary napkin to her panty to possibly my mouth or eyes is pretty far fetched (I'm not even sure that she was on her period)but my mind is playing with me.

Move on. Take it to the OCD forum.

Very last question. Assuming that the girl had her period and was wearing a sanitary napkin under her panties. Would the chemicals in sanitary napkins enough to break the virus in menstrual blood.

I dont think I came in contact with the vaginal area directly since she was upright and only the front pubic area was rubbed on my face. She was wearing a panty and I am just assuming a worst case scenario that she might be on her period and that blood may have passed through her sanitary napkin and panties. Honest, last question.
