please opinions

So I am a 23 yr old female and a little worried. Here is my story and yes it was supid but we all make mistakes. Back in november of 2010 I had unprotected sex with a male and he accidentally (so he says) slipped which led to a anal penatration. It did cause bleeding and I noticed that after he finish and I went to the restroom. He did not ejaculate inside my vagina either. Then in early december I had a sexual encounter withanother male only vaginal. We were both drinking and forgot to use condom. We had sex three times and he did ejaculate inside. Both obviously said they were clean. The first one had just recently broke up with a girl he had been with for a while and second said he donates blood every 3-6 months so he knows he doesn't. Now, yes I know they could be lying situate why I will be getting tested soon. I didn't feel sick after sexual encounters now did I get any type of rash. I have been getting recurring boil/ abbsses under my arms sense mid december..and I am waiting culture results in 3 days. I am just worried and scared to have hiv test. Both males are non drug users and are both heterosexual. This is what confuses me. If female to male transmission is very low then wouldn't having sexual relations win a heterosexual only male that doesn't use drugs be low also...plz help

Well thanks for the obvious. I already have stated I AM TESTING SOON! I am waiting untill the end of this month so I can get more accurate results. The first male was in mid november and second in mid december. So march would be 3 months approximately. But to be on safe side I don't have to continue to worry after testing. Thank you .

I 100% understand that an actual test will have the conclusive results. That's obvious. I do understand what I did was a risk, even with it being low it is a risk. That is now what im asking. I simply wanted opinions on if I have a high chance of getting a positive result.

It's from other users in the forum, and they know from the HIV experts here, who are in turn involved in HIV research networks.

According to Dr. HHH it's 0.002% considering the partner is HIV+, yes, but still the risk was there in your case since you weren't protected from risk. No matter female to male or otherwise, the risk is still there, so you should get tested to determine whether HIV has been in your body 3 months post-exposure.

I notice you answer a lot of questions. Just curious how you know so much about hiv/aids. Yes I will be getting tested next month so that is definite. You say hiv risk is low for vaginal sex. Why a lot of sites say other wise? Doesn't it make sense that if female to male transmission is something like 0.002% then having heterosexual sex be pretty safe if its.not a constant recurring event? If its hard for a male to get hiv from a female and that male is not considered a high risk candidate would the other females having sex wig him have a low. Risk?

Vaginal sex has a generally low risk but the risk is there. And don't take other people's words on HIV status even when they're honest unless he/she's your settled partner because he/she could get HIV after the test and passed it to you.

You may have had an HIV risk so get tested at 3 months post-exposure for a conclusive result.
