menstrual period blood

I fingered a prostitute during her menstrual period(we did not have any other sex). During the case, I used the finger with her menstrual period blood to touch my small open wound, then what is the risk for me to be infected with hepatitis C? Because I know from this forum that hepatitis C can be infected through blood to blood.
thank you!

You should be tested for Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.

Next time it would be wise NOT to mix anyone's blood with your blood.

Good luck.

With your kind of lifestyle you should get tested for every communicable disease there is.
