Hi Dr HHH,
I've known you've helped alot of people and alot of people trust your judgement and advice.
Please help me with this dilemma! :(
i fingered a female at my halloween party. She just had her period so she still had blood/drying blood in her vagina.
Now i normally wouldnt mind but 2 things make me feel uneasy.
1) i knew this girl was sexually active, but uses condoms every time and doesnt do oral sex.
2)i had a peeled cuticle on my finger earlier that day, i dont think it bled but it made it very tender and sensitive.
Would i be at risk of any HIV transmission? Would that risk change if it was a deeper would such as a scratch but bleeding as stopped and with or without bloodclotting?
I talked to her today, she said she's never been tested, should i trust her word that she's been protected and clean or should i worry?
I havent seen anyone with this exact situation.. this transmission should nonexistent and do not need to seek a doctor (even with this "extreme" scenario with a "norisk" contact). i think its because im paranoid but i could really use your opinion to get rid of my doubts.
Please dr HHH, you're the only person whos opinion matters to me!!
