Answers:
anwsers:
1) yes semen has HIV, hence why they tell you to were a condom.
2)yes if the wound on your hand is "opened" and the bodily fluids from whom ever your pleasuring gets on the wound you can contract HIV.
3) often the symptoms of the being onset of HIV is fatigue, sweat, your body weight starts to drop. Often the onset symptoms of HIV are mistaken for the common flu/cold
4)If some one is infected with HIV then there semen no matter what will carry the virus

ok just some extra helpful hints. Get tested ever 4 to 6 months. also if you had intercourse with in the last 30 days and contracted HIV. it wont show up on the test results.
yuo can only get hiv from another person who is infected with the virus, or by having your bodily fluids coming into contact with an infected object (like having an open wound while helping someone with another open wound and they come in contact and the other person is infected with the virus, or sharing needles.)
#1. Look up HIV online, because you desperately need some information.
#2. You can't give HIV to yourself, because you would already have it. Duh.
#3. You probably wouldn't know you had it until you went to a doctor and had a test for it.
#4. HIV is found in most body fluids if you have it. It's in blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and spinal fluid.
Seriously, look it up online!
1)HIV can be transmitted via semen if it comes into contact w/ your mucuous membranes (anus, mouth, eyes, nose, ears, penis/vagina) and enters your blood.
2)No, unless the bodily fluids of someone other than yourself comes into contact w/ that wound. You cannot give yourself HIV from your own semen
3)You can't
4)You have to get a series of tests to confirm the presence of HIV antibodies in your blood. The tests work like this: first, you take a test called the ELISA test, which detects the presence of HIV antibodies in your blood. If the first test is positive, the same test is done again. If the second test is also positive, than another test called the Western blot test is done to confirm the presence of HIV proteins in your body. This is done to prevent a false positive from the ELISA test.
Hope that helps!
The virus has to come from somewhere; in order to get infected with HIV, you must come in contact with the bodily fluids (blood, semen, other secretions) of a person who has the virus. You cannot infect yourself with HIV.

Unless a person either has had no possible chance to be infected with HIV or develops full blown AIDS (which can take quite a while after becoming infected with the virus) they can't know for sure whether or not they are infected with HIV without getting a test from a doctor. There are many places where a person can get a free, anonymous HIV test in North America at least.
you cant get it from yourself, if you have had sex, oral sex or have come in contact with someone with hiv and have exchanged any bodily fluids, puss, blood, semen ect. (not including saliva(spit) and sweat) then thats when you catch it there are tests you can buy at some stores if you prefer not going to a doctor but i suggest you talk to your doctor about it
#1 No, semen itself doesn't cause HIV. There can be HIV cells in an infected person's semen but the semen itself doesn't cause HIV.

#2 Not if you are masturbating yourself and you are HIV-free.

#3 You cannot. However, if you have never had intercourse or relations in which bodily fluids were exchanged (blood, semen, saliva), then you have nothing to worry about. If you have had unprotected exchange of fluids, then the only way to know for sure is to be tested. There are clinics across America in every large city where you can be tested anonymously. That means you do not have to give them your name. In other words, you do not have to tell your parents, your girlfriend, your doctor, etc. that you are getting tested. If you are concerned because you have had unprotected intercourse, then seek out one of these clinics and by all means get tested. You do not want to hide under a rock and worry about this (or worse, worry about passing it to others).

#4 You don't know if your semen has the virus until you are tested. Please understand, it is not just in the semen. Once you are infected with HIV, it is in you period. There are many wonderful medications that keep HIV under good control and many, many people are living happy, healthy lives even though they are HIV+.

So, in summary, the best way to know and not worry is get tested (if that is even necessary, see comments above). Good luck to you!
1) yes 2) yes(but then you will just give it to yourself) 3) you cant 4) by having an hiv test/aidsi think you are very young and need to speak with someone at a clinic or maybe at the dosctors about it. i am sure they will be glad to help you and inform you on hiv/aids
you do not have hiv, only masturbation may not lead you to the virus, this virus cannot survive in air, it need a media to spread like having sex with infected, or sometimes some using used syringe, touching an infected person do not spread HIV.
you can consult your physician he can do some simple test and let you know weather you have it or not.
HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) is a sexually transmitted disease. You can only get it by coming in contact with fluids of a person who carries it. You cannot infect yourself.

Semen is a carrier of HIV. So is blood, and vaginal fluids. Kissing a person who is HIV positive is fine, as long as you have no open sores in your mouth.

HIV works like this:

You have T-cells in your body. A perfectly normal person will have around a 1000 T-cell count. HIV destroys these T-cells, quite slowly. Infact, many people do not know they have HIV for around 10 years, which is the reason we see so few teenagers who have AIDs, but so many 25 year olds.

When your T-cell count reduces to about 600, you'll notice you get sick, quite often. Eventually, this T-cell count will be reduced to 200, which is called "Aquired Immunodeficiancy Syndrom", or AIDs. At this point, if you have not already gone to a doctor, it is most likely fatal.

The only possible way to know is to go to your doctor. But this really isn't necessary if you haven't had sex. You have no chance of getting it if you are abstinant.
#1 Semen doesn't CAUSE HIV, semen sheds HIV if you're HIV+, shedding meaning semen contains HIV in it.
#2 no it's not possible to get HIV when you masturbate
#3 there is no way you can tell if you have HIV without going to the doctor, not for you to tell at least.
#4 if you're HIV+ then HIV will shed through semen, depending on your viral load.
