Am I infected HIV?
First of all, sorry for my poor English. I am not a English speaker but I try my best to express my questions clearly. I have few questions:
1> Is the condom reduce the effectiveness on the prevention HIV if I used it for both oral and anal sex at the same time. I mean that After the sex worker gave me a blowjob IN 20 MINUTES, I had anneal sex with her by using this condom (I didn't use the other condom). Is there any chance for me to be infected HIV (anal sex) if the Latex on the condom had Been disappear because of her blowjob.
2> After I had anal sex, I didn't check whether or not the condom had been broken. If It had a hole, virus can pass through and infect. I am very PANIC about the chance I caught HIV in this case.
3> As far as I remember, The worker told me that it is likely that I worn BACKWARD/Opposite,… CONDOM, but I didn't care and continued anal sex. Wearing backward condom put my heath at risk in term of HIV infection ?
4> About Stds, if the condom wrap A HALF of my penis, can I be infected by studs such as HPV, HSV 1-2, goherra, syphills,…
Thanks for your help

Sorry, made a mistake and said she is a CSW. You didn't say that, so please disregard that part of my comment(s). If you have questions, please write back.
Be well.

Only latex condoms and polyurethane condoms are the only ones that are effective barriers. (FYI: some people believe polyurethane, while effective, are less effective because they are looser and can slip or break easier than latex.)
The risk of OUT-OF-DATE condoms is that they can break more easily so they should not be used. Most people believe even if it was out-of-date and it didn't break you are okay with a latex condom. But out-of-date condoms should not be used.
Oral sex with a latex condom will not hurt the condom, in general. Any kind of "oil" product will damage a condom. Some people will even change condoms going from oral to penetrative sex, just to be safer. But in general it's not necessary as long as the oral isn't rough and no biting occurs.
Most of the world uses latex condoms. They are generally the cheapest. So odds are the condom she use was latex. Keep in mind she's a CSW. She doesn't want to get HIV or an STD. I'm sure she's aware of latex condoms. I've also read that even the worst condoms reduce risk by 1000. So any condom is better than no condom.
Your chance of infection is about .1%, in general according to the CDC without a condom at all. So even with the condom you did have, it would be less than that.
Also keep in mind that their are other STDs which even a condom will not protect you against -- it will reduce the chances, but it can happen.
Write back if you have any questions.
