Hello Homerx and muthoni, I had posted a similar question here a couple of weeks ago http://ehealthforum.com/health/blood-o n-condom-and-hiv-t137929.html I am worried and I think it is better to write all the details... I had sex with a prostitute in Ottawa,Canada. After the sex I kept condom on my penis for good 2-3 minutes. Then I removed the condom and used the toilet paper to clean the skin around the tip of my penis.I am uncircumcised ..so the fluid might not have touched the penis tip directly but there is a chance...I was worried for the past 2-3 weeks since I touched her fluids present on the outer part of condom and used the same fingers to clean the penis using toilet paper...I was mad at myself that I should have washed my fingers first and all the what-if-else thoughts were driving me crazy...But as you say above that the HIV is killed within a minute of exposed to air, what do you think is my chance of contracting HIV considering my actions .....????? I had called the prostitute..she said I should not worry as she had tested two weeks back before we had sex and she was negative.. I have taken one HIV test after 3 days of the sex and it is negative thankfully!!! But I am taking another test after 3 months. Please read my post and tell me what you think about my risk level....?? I really appreciate all the help you are providing to people..

I think you risk is minimal but I would follow up at the 3 month mark to be 100% certain.
