Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query . I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Welcome to health care magic. I have gone through the details.
The chances of transmission of HIV by unprotected intercourse with a HIV positive person is 1/200 to 1/1000. It is low . You have used condom. But It may be considered almost as unprotected intercourse if the condom has slipped off. The risk of transmission is low or almost nil.
She may be negative too. They are usually tested repeatedly and they take precautions too. You can enquire about her HIV status if possible.
But it may be better to go for HIV 1&2 RNA PCR test , at this stage to allay fears of HIV.
You can get back for any clarification.
