I'm scared I may have been exposed!

I've had sex with a guy twice. (Two separate occasions) on both occasions intercourse was initiated with the use of a condom. However, after he ejaculated, he took the condom off, washed his genitalia off with soap and water and then came back and resumed intercourse without a condom. He never ejaculated in nor on me. How high is my risk if he was positive? He said he's not, but I'm just a bit of the paranoid type. I'm a female btw (so penile-vaginal sex). So long story short, I was only exposed to pre-cum, if anything. I highly doubt I was even exposed to that.

A risk is a risk. You can obtain your conclusive negative test result 3 months post exposure.

So there's an actual risk? When I checked out the "TheBody.org" (a reputable site) they said that preseminal fluids pose a hypothetical risk. That no one has been actually known/found to be infected this way, being that it's not known whether all pre-seminal fluids carry sperm.

You had a risk. Where did you come up that HIV is only transmitted in sperm?

I never said it's only transmitted through sperm. I know it can be transmitted from blood, vaginal fluids, breast milk. I'm saying that it is said that its a hypothetical risk because not all preseminal fluids carry sperm which has a high content level of the virus in it.
