HIV transmission risk if I bleed during protected sex & if the condom broke?

Hi,

So I'm in constant fear because recently I had sex multiple time with a guy, who I know that he slept around 70 people or so, so I am aware that it was risky and made sure that we use condom every time. He also talked about he had occasionally broke his condom during his previous experiences.

After the sex which was pretty rough, I cleaned myself and noticed that I have blood from my vagina.
Now I am in fear, was it high risk, the whole act, considering that it was protected?

Another question is, can a female tell if the condom broke? I asked him and he said that condom was fine and did not break but I'm still in a lot of fear, what if it did?
At least I know that I didn't have any of his semen inside (in case the condom broke) but if the condom broke, is it still a high risk situation considering I was bleeding from previous sex act? (I spent 4 days with him in total).

Thank you.

An condom failure results in a large rip down the seam and it hangs in tatters so both parties would know. You had no risk and are so safe that you don't need to test.
