Few More Questions About Hiv, Please!!!! Posted: 09-10-05 13:08pm
Hello everyone, I have few more questions
about hiv. They are really important to
me.
1) I had unprotected sex 3 months ago.
When I realized that my boyfriend didn’t
have a condom I stopped him. It lasted
about 30 seconds. Could you please tell
me if I am in danger of getting hiv. The
second question concerns the hiv testing.
I read that 3 months are enough to get
tested but someone said that it has to
pass 6 months. Please help!!!!
2) I was wondering if it is possible for
girl to know when the condom breaks (if
the guy doesn’t say anything).

With the breakthrough technology and
significant improvements with current
testing, 3 months post exposure is
sufficient time for you to test and
conclusively rule out hiv. Getting to
your doctor is the first step. Discuss
your concerns and he'll take care of you.
Condoms are usually durable, however old
condoms or those exposed to other
conditions could compromise the condom.
In the future, why don't you buy your own
pack. It's a good idea to give the
partner a condom yourself.
No, you can't tell in the heat of the
moment if the condom breaks. Most won't
but you need to get into the practice of
periodic inspection. You can do it
conspicuously, whereas it would make you
feel very comfortable.
The ultimate scenario is protected sex
with an individual who is in a monogomous
relationship who shared his recent results
with you. Think about it!
