Can you contract hiv or anything else if you wash your dirty scrubs from work with your bra and underwear and socks and then wear it after theyre clean? im not sure if i put enough detergent when doing this load of laundry?

No: HIV transmission is not possible in above described circumstances.HIV related anxiety appears likely and talking to your doc about your fears would be helpful.

Agree with Dr. P: Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
