i had sex 4 days ago with a girl and i did use a condom. she told me today that she is hiv postive. should i be worried? i noticed when i pulled out the condom was half way on i put it back on until i was finished. i did shave about 1 and half before we had sex and i had some rash and maybe little cuts down at gthe bottom of the penis wher it wasnt covered some. cani get hiv from her? she said she hasnt been on her meds for about a year and dont know about her vial loads or blood count. does that matter?
i think i understand. so it doesnt matter that her secretion got on half of me penis as long as it didnt get inside the hole of the head
HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child
