What Are The Possibilities Of HIV Transmission?
I'm 34 years old. I had protected sex with a hooker. The condom broke but I pulled out within a second and put a new one on. After that, the condom popped again and I pulled out ASAP!!! When the condom broke both times I was only in her for a split second or two. Can I still catch HIV even though I was only in there for a quick second?

Hi,
yes there is definite chance that you csn be infected with hiv. Spread of hiv depend on sexual contact. It does not depends on the duration of time you exposed. One second is enough for spread. Go for confirmatory hiv testing once after a month of exposure. You can go with p24 antigen or pcr.and make sure that you are safe.
