menstrual blood risks
Hello. I am extremely worried about a recent event. I have engaged in protected insertive sex and unprotected oral sex (i was the receiver) with a girl that has a promiscuous life style.
During the protected insertive sex she began to have vaginal bleeding and we did not notice for about ten minutes. All that time she was bleeding and I was inside her. My condom was on, rolled down to the base of the penis, but towards the end it got a little flaccid.
I we suppose she was HIV +, I have the following questions:
1). could vaginal blood gotten under the base of my condom when the penis was a bit flaccid?
2). i had trimmed my pubic hair (really short trim, almost like a shave) about 12 hours before intercourse. could her blood infect me through the area where i was trimmed (if i was a little irritated)?
3). i fingered her, but no cuts on my hands. could i get infected i my finger got into contact with her blood, inside the vagina?
4). when i was washing up, I had quite some vaginal blood on my hands, but no cuts on my hands (I checked). Could this infect me?
5). should i wait and get tested?
I am a bit worried and would thank you for any sincere advice.

I could not stand the uncertainty and I went and got an HIV test. This is 42 days post-exposure - 6 weeks.
I noticed some small red spots on my upper arms.
How helpful is a 6 weeks HIV test?
And on the other hand....as far as you know...what are the changes of getting hep A, B or C from my exposure: protected vaginal intercourse but with consistent menstrual bleeding and receiving unprotected oral sex?

Unless you did unprotected anal/vaginal sex or share IV drug works with her, there would be no HIV risk at all. That simple.
But what if i gotten it through kissing her or when she performed unprotected oral sex on me?
Stop looking for HIV stuffs on the net, there's quite a lot of misinfo in there that can worsen your fear. If you insist on testing though, you'll find it a negative if this is your only concerned interaction. 3 months post-"exposure" will do. But remember, I DON'T RECOMMEND HIV TESTING.
Recently i began to experience some discomfort in my groin area. I fear that it might be caused by swelling of the lymph nodes.
I fear that all that blood surely managed to get into my blood stream.
When should I get tested?

I just find it hard to believe that all that blood did not pose a threat.
