Had Sex And Used Condom. Doubt If Vaginal Fluid Touched Scrotum Which Has Yeast Infection. Worried About HIV?
Hi Lavab,
I have read your query with diligence. There is a definite risk of contracting STDs including HIV when there is sexual exposure with a stranger or unknown person.
In your case, I would suggest you be screened for the STD panel. You could get the following tests done:
- VDRL
- HIV ELISA
- Test for Herpes antigen and antibodies
- Urethral swab for gonorrhea and Chlamydia
I say you this - You have a choice to either take these tests or not.
She may have a STD and most of the STDs are asymptomatic. Therefore, you must take precautions before something goes wrong.
As you know, HIV is a dreaded disease. You may want to test only for this.
Lastly, always practice safe sex and take care not to spread any infection to others. Play it safe.
I hope this helps you. Take care!
