Are There Any Side Effects For Using Cement Without Gloves?

I was using some quick cement today to fix a concrete wall, but i didnt have gloves, i read the back and it said use gloves and goggles, and also that it has harmful vapors and can cause irritation on skin and if ingested can cause birth defect and what not, im a hypochondriac so i am scared now that i might be impotent, (crazy i know) im a 21yr old male. Is impotence or any other ailment possible? (i was in an open room with plenty of air also)
