If I had about 15 seconds of unprotected sex with someone I did not know too well (I stopped because I knew I shouldn't be doing it) how much at risk am I of contracting HIV?

Optional Information:
Male , Age: 25

Already Tried:
I've been tested, but before this one circumstance. So I'm not sure of my status.

Just to clarify, neither of us orgasmed. But hypethetically speaking, if she did have HIV, would there be a 100% chance of contracting it if you did have complete intercourse?

Hi,
There is never any 100% chance of transmission of HIV from HIV positive person even after completeing the sexual intercourse. On the other hand even a 15 second contact vaginal fluid of an HIV positive person can cause transmission of the infection (though admitedly the risk is very small). The chances of infection are increased if you had a skin abrasion or a cut on the areas exposed to her body fluids (mainly vaginal fluid). If you are so worried about the chances of contracting HIV infection, then you can consider post exposure HIV prophylaxis.

I would advise you to discuss this possibility with your doctor.
