Hello, I had protected sex with a prostitute but I'm still worried that I might get HIV as I don't know her HIV status and I don't know if condom torn or not. I didn't check it after intercourse. I did a HIV 1 and 2 antibody test 21 days after exposure and results were negative. Can I consider I'm safe?

Hi. HIV test is to be repeated 3 months and 6 months after the suspected sexual contact. You need to get tested for other sexually transmitted infections. Since it was a protected contact, chances of acquiring infection is less but not zero. Consult a dermatologist.
