Risk?
Hello Doctor,
I am an Italian female ( 21 years old ) and my boyfriend is half Norvegian, half Swedish ( 22 years old ). He doesn`t belong to high-risk groups and his ex- girlfriends are Norwegian and Swedish. He has five tattoos, all of them made in Norway except one made in Turkey. We always use condoms correctly but once he touched the wrong side of the condom with top of his penis for a few seconds and then he flipped it over to the wright side. Is this how people get infected of Hiv?
We got tested for chlamydia,the results were ok, according to a doctor there was no need to worry about Hiv since non of us are at risk.
Doctor told him that he shouldn`t do a gonorrhea test if he doesn`t have any symptoms. Is this correct?
So my question is: Am I at risk for hiv? Should I worry about Hiv? Is tattoo a risk?
Thank you for your time and your help!
