chances of contraction

Hi There,

about 5 weeks ago, I had sex with a girl I picked up in a club. As I was very drunk at that time, I forgot that I was not wearing a condom before I thrust into her. After realising and a few thrusts, I pulled out and wore a condom. A few days ago, I went for a hiv test using the oraquick. That came back negative. However, I am still very scared of all the symptoms. Recently my stomach has been giving me problems and I cant perform my daily tasks well as I am so scared. Please help. I know I have to go and do another check in 12 weeks to confirm but I just am suffering from so much stress and paranoia. I heard the girl sleeps around as well.

If you were not the "first timer" with that "sleeping around" girl, your unprotected act also put her at a risk (females have relatively higher risk of catching HIV in a given events of unprotected sex due to their larger mucus membrane area involved) higher than your own.

You need to get tested after 3 months mark for a conclusive clearance.

She sleeps around? Apparently you do too. Yes a 12-week test is conclusive.
