Am I at risk for HIV?
Hello, I had a recent encounter with a man. Vaginal sex with a condom. However, as he was pulling out, I noticed that the condom was sliding off. It did not slide off completely. About 5 days following the encounter I developed a vaginal yeast infection. I have been treated 3 times over the course of the past 2 months but it keeps coming back. My question is could this be an ARS symptom? I never got sick or anything but this is causing me worry. Thoughts?
If the condom was loose enough that his fluids could leak past the ring at the bottom, then the ring couldn't hold it on, and it would have fallen off when there was penetration. You had no risk.

Thank you for responding. Just for my own knowledge, Are recurrent yeast infections considered an ARS symptom I women? Or would this only occur after the immune system has been severely weakened?
The first step to peace when you had no risk is to stop googling hiv cold turkey and the second is to stop examining your body cold turkey.
Thanks.
