HIV EXPOSURE

Dear All ,

Recently on 30 december 2018 I had sex with CSW there was no kissing , oral was done with condom and protected vaginal sex.
After sex I checked the condom(filling water in it) and it was completely okthere was no brokage but today when I try to disposing it and check it again I found a pin hole on the top of the condom not at the bottom (where sperm collected ).
Is there any chance of hiv exposure.
Anxious.

The property of latex as a material is to bind very closely, the molecular structure of latex  is as such that if it is seperated,  it will rip apart, there can not be a pin hole. The only exception would be if you draw a hole with a punch or prick it with a pin in it's non elastic state.

Perhaps, either you are not giving out correct information or the hole is drawn post usage of condom.

Actually I kept it my wallet also and was exposed to environment for 3 or 4 days .
When at last I have dispose it I found a tiny one near the ring.
100 percent genuine information no fake sir.
Hole was after use.
I checked it after sex there is nothing but bit scared when I found today.
I reiterate if there was a hole in your condom at the first place, it would have ripped apart the moment you used it for sexual intercourse.  If you insist there was a hole, it had to happen post usage.  Please read all the suggestion offered to you carefully. You didn't have a risk.
Thank you .....

If right after the sexual encounter you checked the condom and there was not any hole, the sex was protected and safe. If you checked it later on and there was a hole, that means that the hole was made once the condom was not on you penis, so the situation doesn't change.

That's ok sir .....But is it possible in this scenario if somehow there was a hole on upper side of condom near the ring not at the bottom.
Scared
One more thing can hole generate on its own .
Only a pin hole not a large one .
No, a pin hole is not going to magically appear out of thin air. It's very clear here that you had protected sex and therefore had no risk. Your problem has nothing to do with HIV. Your problem is guilt or shame from getting with a CSW. My suggestion is that you get over it because no one really cares what you do in your personal life so it really doesn't matter what you do.
Thanks for your reply....
I was just confused and found that hole today as the condom was placed in open environment and now thinking whether that was now or before .
But that for sure it was on upper side and tiny one .
Not at the bottom of the condom or any side of the condom.
I guess I have to move out from my anxiety .
