Can you get HIV from sex with a transgender?

A condom broke during sex with a transgender (men to women with complete sugery).  Basically 4 strokes happened after the condom broke with ejaculation, by then it was too late.  Total exposure was about 10-15 seconds without protection.
2 questions:
Can a transgender produce vaginal fluid that would transmit the HIV virus?
What is my risk for contracting the HIV virus?

Tell me you are joking? Of course you can get HIV from a transgender and for your information transgender means male to female or female to male.

Sorry, yes male to female transgender, and no I wasn't joking, I wasn't to sure how the mechanics work after surgury, its hard to find the exact information.

What about my risk?

You were protected until your condom broke and add that it was a short period of time makes it less. The only way to know your status is by testing and in your case for both STDs and HIV. STDs is a lot easier to contract than HIV. Anyone that is sexually active should at least test annually.
