The doctor had a needle stick injury to a vein, but it was a superficial scratch, not deep, and some blood fell on the scratch. I wasn't wearing gloves. My doctor told me there's no need for preventive treatment. I tested negative with fourth-generation testing after 6 weeks, and I'll repeat the test after 3 and 6 months. Am I safe? I'm worried.

Hi Doctor, I got possible exposure when they were drawing blood for tests, I started about 43hours after exposure at 9:35am, the doctor had said with reydin side effects are better at night, she didn't want me to wait until night time to start so she said I must take one soon I get the meds and then another one at night then going forward I should keep taking it at night, when I got to the phamarcy they said if I take one in the morning I must continue taking one in the morning, so I have been taking 1 reydin at 9:35 am as pep, is this fine I'm just worried I might have misunderstood her. Am I supposed to take a double dose as the first dose as pep then continue taking 1 for the rest of the course?

Doctor, i am a male and a month back performed oral sex on a women whose hiv status is unknown.
I started taking PEP at the 25th hour after exposure. I completed the 28 days course today. I have some doubts that are causing me anxiety.
1) what is the risk of oral sex in hiv transmission ?
2) How effective is pep when taken exactly 25 hours after exposure ?
3) Most days i took the pill at exactly the same time but there were days when it got delayed by 10 minutes max. Is this a cause for alarm ?
Thank you for your response in advance.
