Hello community! I’m hoping someone could answer my question and help ease the anxiety I’m currently experiencing. I’m a 38 year old female who gets tested every three months to stay on top of my sexual health. I have only one sexual partner who I’ve been dealing with for two years. We’ve always used protection during vaginal sex, but I’m not certain if he’s been wearing protection with possible partners other than myself. Well yesterday I was cutting vegetables to go into my crockpot, when I cut my index finger at the tip towards the nail. It bleed but I was able to cut the nail down and bandage it with some ointment. Fast forward to this morning, it was still sore and the cut was red, but wasn’t bleeding and I could tell it was starting to heal. This afternoon my partner came to visit and were intimate. We had protected sex like always and fell into conversation afterwards. I asked him when he was last tested, and showed him my results from lab work that was done during my well woman exam. I told him that I had an Insti hiv test that I’d ordered online to test him if he’d like. I didn’t have gloves but proceeded to test him anyways, which wasn’t wise on my part. After pricking his finger, we had a difficult time getting enough blood out. After squeezing enough blood to test with, I then noticed that some of his blood was running across my finger wound. I tried not to panic as I completed his test and it was negative. I was a little relieved but also understood that he may have still been in the window period from other possible encounters, although he said he was only with me. What is the risk of hiv transmission if he was actually positive and in the window period? I kept looking at my finger to make sure their weren’t any openings in the cut, although it’s still red and a little sore. I’m trying not to over think but my anxiety gets the best of me at times. I’m going to wait 30 days and test for a peace of mind. Your answers are greatly appreciated.
