Thanks Teak. I think i used them correctly and i am sure that i used them consistently. They didn't break or anything. Intact all the time.
Still, do i run a risk of infection? Would you advise a test under these circumstances?
Latex condoms, when used consistently and correctly, are highly effective in
preventing transmission of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. In addition, correct
and consistent use of latex condoms can reduce the risk of other sexually
transmitted diseases (STDs), including discharge and genital ulcer diseases.
While the effect of condoms in preventing human papilloma virus (HPV) infection
is unknown, condom use has been associated with a lower rate of cervical
cancer, an HPV-associated disease. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that latex condoms provide an essentially impermeable barrier to particles the size of STD pathogens.
Hi Teak, is it really ZERO? I read on many websites, including thebody.com and a few posts in the docs forum that a condom protected sex is very low risk.
What if the condom was intact and still something happens?
Also, one more thing that is eating my mind is that i did it all with the sex workers.
Is hiv testing warranted for me?
Please help me
