Should I be worried?

I had sex with CSW 3 weeks ago. I wore a condom which I don’t believe broke. However the condom was a bit loose and am worried that vaginal excretions May have travelled up the condom to the tip of my penis during sex. Also when removing the condom after sex I wiped off thick white substance from the tip of my penis. I am extremely worried - am I at risk?

When it comes to using a condom for sex, they work to protect you. Only the head of your penis needs to be covered for protection which means the urethra.  So, you should not be worried about HIV after condom use. The only ways adults get HIV is from unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing IV drug needles.

No. Condom are sufficient to protect against transmission of HIV. You were not at risk.
