Can Having Multiple Sexual Partners Increase The Chances Of Having HIV?

I have slept with 5 people in the past 7 years. I am a straight female. Before then I wasn t quite as monotonous. I am scared I have hiv because of my past. I have no symptoms. What is the percentage of likelihood that I have hiv.? I know to go get tested. I just don t want to have such bad anxiety until the clinic is open

Hello ma'am and welcome.

Your chances of having HIV does not depend on the number of partners you have ma'am, there is no such proportion. I would say that this clearly depends not he number of unsafe partners you have been involved with.

Based on the number and current stats, your chances are low but existent. Please do get tested. Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
