I advise you to get tested you Sexually Transmitted Disease immediately including HIV . Also if possible get that lady tested for Sexually Transmitted Disease.
If at all you can't get that lady tested I would advise you to take medicines for possible HIV exposure so that it may not harm you. This kind of medication is called Post exposure prophylaxis. Ask your doctor for that.
