Hello Mr. Lybrate-user. It is understandably natural to be worried but always remember" prevention is better than cure" you can get your hiv status checked at any government run hiv centre. It is reliable and confidential. But hiv may not show up immediately so be sure to repeat the test in 3 months time. Use of a condom helps prevent not only hiv but other sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhoea, chlamydia which affect males as well and may cause with having a child later on in life. Hope this helps.
