Question

I'm really worried because I had protected sex with a prostitute and during it, I noticed blood on the condom and my stomach. She mentioned she was on her period, but now I'm anxious about whether there's anything else I should be concerned about. This happened about 18 hours ago. Could you please help me understand if there's a risk for anything or anything I should do now?

Question

I met a 40-year-old lady in Dubai, and she ended up performing oral sex on me. I was wearing a condom, but at one point, I sucked on her left nipple for maybe a minute. I'm not sure about her HIV status; she seemed like a prostitute. I can't really remember if any breast discharge got into my mouth, but right after, I rinsed my mouth with water. Then, about five minutes later, I brushed my teeth with toothpaste and swallowed. I'm really concernedcould I have contracted HIV from this encounter? It's been 71 days now, and I had two different rapid tests, both came back negative. Should I be worried about getting infected?

Question

I'm a bit anxious because I had sex using a condom, but it slipped off during the act. This happened last week, and now I'm really worried about the possibility of getting HIV from my partner. I'm considering seeing a doctor to check if everything's okay. What would you recommend?
