What Are The Risk Of STI After Unprotected Sex?

What is the risk of STIs when having unprotected genital contact (without penetration), while my partner is on her 1st day of menstruation and we both rubbed against each others privates whilst in the shower with water always on? I'm a 27 y.o. male, 190 lbs, no known diseases.
