Need Advice on testing
I had protected sex Nov-15. Condom did not break, but there was blood after sex, on my fingers. not sure where it came from but the lady told me i may have gone too deep. I Cant be sure if blood went into my condom. PCR test on Nov-22 was negative. When should I take my next test. PLEASE ADVICE
No way possible to get blood in your condom. You didn't have a risk, don't need testing or a provider.
Teak,
thank you so much for the quick response. my concern was due to the blood and the fact that it MAY have got into the condom... so I wanted to take another test to ease my mind. if I am doing PCR, should the time frames be 3-4weeks after possible exposure? Also these test seems to have various providers? any recommendations of the good provider?
