I had sex reasonly, with a female, I am male. I wore a condom, however the female began her period during inter course and blood, and other liquid came into contact with the base of my penis and pubic area.
Could I have contracted a sti in this situation ? Is it possible ? I have no symtons, it's been 24 hrs.
Thank you.

it is possible to catch an STI from a woman having a period, with the same risk of catching an STI from a wan not having her period. if she has an STI, and you have unprotected sex, then you are at the same risk wether or not she is menstruating. if she does not have an STI, then there is no risk, regardless of whether or not she is on her period. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions.
