HIV/AIDS question Help..?

Last night me and my girlfriend were making out, and she went to the washroom and i went in :), but she show me her tampon, and i saw blood on it. As the night pass, i was thinking if a woman had HIV/AIDS and her blood get on the tampon, will the HIV/AIDS die on the tampon??

Hello:
Are you asking this question because:
1) You are obsessing or you can鈥檛 get the idea out of you head?
2) Your girlfriend is HIV positive?

Keep in mind that if you followed her into the bathroom, her showing you her tampon may have been a way to:
1) Gross you out so that you would not do THAT again (everyone needs privacy)!
2) Inform you of her current menses status (many couples do no engage in intercourse at this time of the month)

First of all, there have been in no cases of HIV transmission linked to the handling of tampons or other bodily fluids. See the source: http://www.cyh.sa.gov.au/HealthTopics/He...

Secondly, dies rapidly when it comes in contact with air. See: http://hivinsite.ucsf.edu/insite?page=as... . Research shows that HIV can only survive a few minutes outside the body. But remember blood from menses is not fresh anyway. Also see: http://www.thebody.com/Forums/AIDS/SafeS...

Bottom Line:
1) Let your girlfriend go to the bathroom alone. You may be displacing being grossed out with this obsessive behavior.
2) If you have a cut on your hand, don鈥檛 touch a tampon, but even if you did, the virus would be dead within a few minutes.

Hiv can only liv e 2 hours on a non living object

yes and no, it is likely to die right away, but you can still get the virus if you touch it and you have a cut on your hand

hiv virus dies on air in a very fast time. lest than an hour

probably after a while but not over night

you should only get worried if you put it into your mouth or something


it will end up just being a period dot worry
oh is that question a bit personal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe its her first time..
dont worry..
ask her if she has AIDS..
