Scared over bleeding cuticle and fingering incident--PEP?

[Joezay77]

Condoms, just like all other birth control methods are not 100% effective. Semin can leak out the tiniest holes in the condom, and even though you did not finish, you may have had just enough escape. Semen can live for as long as or longer than 72 hours in the female body, and if she was near ovulation, then the egg is viable for 12-24 hours. So....this is what you should always be prepared for no matter what kind of birth control you are using, or just abstain until you are ready to have children. I hope this helps.

My apology this was posted by some idiot who was a member not and MD. Though the MD didnt correct the member---I was looking for info on condom effectivness. The MD by the name of Dowling did not say whether or not this could happen he said--defective condom or when it breaks---not sure if they are one in the same..

I am done with this topic--Ill go get tested soon--in Window period still

I urge you to stop posting inaccurate information on this forum without using the proper quotation methods. I also urge you to move on from this unwarranted fear. This site can be of no more use to you.

You are in no window period, because there was  no risk. As we have failed to educate you on this matter, I can only sincerely wish you peace and hope you get the help you need for your irrational fears.

Joe, we're not here to get into arguments with you. Anything that is expressed the regular respondents here is well-based in HIV science and experience.

Latex condoms provide very effective protection when used and used properly. We're simply not going to get into exchanges with you about leaky condoms and such. You are potentially alarming people here unnecessarily through hearsay. You definitely need to be more careful about what you are posting as if it's documented scientifically when it isn't. 'nuf said.

You're a relatively new member here. I suggest you lower the rhetoric level and concentrate on your own problem. You can go and get tested if you need to do that for your peace of mind. ...and collect the inevitable negative result since you were not at risk.

I am still in the window period====havent felt sick or anxiety hasnt allowed me to become sick and make myself think I have ARS===Thank god cuz I just started a new job---as I try to stay busy I replay all the incidents---A question that was answered sort of generally was the one I had about the tranny and me pushing up against her anus---could anal fluid---blood gotten in my urethra? I was only applying pressure not enteriing and just rubbing my head on the outside...Andy you said I had no risk---but I did have unprotected vaginal---which ann addressed---this person is fed up with me asking her if shes got it---shes gone through dates as to when she got tested etc....She is a former crack smoker---functioning but user nonethless--which doesnt mean sh!t because its teh virus you catch not the person who gives it to you--as I learned on here---JK mentioned in a posting to me that vaginal fludis found in vaginals walls---arent that effective in transmitting the virus---and its more cervical fluids---and thats why sex on the period would be more dangerous---does my penis reach the cervix? Im serious here---I havent posted lately because I dont want to offend===but had the urge to ask for some ellaboration

The girl i slept with had cervical dysplasia that had to be treated---I read this is a sign of HIV---she swears she never had warts---her dysplasia she said was because shes had 3 kids---one who is 5---Im so scared

Anyone who continues to post excessively, questioning a conclusive negative result or no-risk situation, will be subject to a four week Time Out (a temporary ban from the Forums). If you continue to post excessively after one Time Out, you may be given a second Time Out which will last eight weeks. There is no third Time Out - it is a permanent ban. The purpose of a Time Out is to encourage you to seek the face-to-face help we cannot provide on this forum.

I had sex unprotected vaginal with a woman a few months back

Joe,

The quote from you I've provided above is the ONLY risk you've brought to us. Surely you must be past or very near the end of the three month window period. Please clarify.

Cervical dysplasia is very common in the general population and one does not have to be hiv positive to have this problem.

You are VERY close to being given a time out.

Ann
