What Are The Chances Of HIV After Unprotected Intercourse?

Hello,
I had an encounter that I'm worried about. I am a woman, and I experienced partial penetration, unprotected, for about twenty seconds with a man I dated five months ago. This happened once. He tried to push his way in, but I wouldn't let him do it completely. I asked him, after it happened, about being tested. He said he was tested a couple of years ago, but dated someone for three months before he met me. So, I'm assuming his status is "unknown." He also said that he recently lost ten pounds in a month, without trying to lose weight. And, a week after that experience with him, I felt extremely nauseous, with chills, for about ten days. It felt like food poisoning, but I recovered, so I never went to the doctor. I will be tested in a few days, but would like to know what my chances are of being infected with HIV from this exposure.
Thank you.

Unprotected vaginal / anal sex is a high risk activity , but in your scenario, transmission looks unlikely as I assume there was no ejaculation and vagino-penile contact was for a very short period. It is good that you are getting tested and I believe it would come negative . Keep me posted your results of tests. Hope this helps.
