I was fingering my self in the bath, my hands were washed and i didn't have any contact with a hiv+ person. do i need to get tested for hiv?

No: You cannot give yourself HIV. It must be contracted from another person. Truth be told, you're a woman or soon to become one. If you have these fears, you need to review some basic facts about your body and about being a grown-up. Mom might be a great person to talk to. Best wishes.
