HIV doesn't cause such symptoms, and they also started too soon. Condoms work and skin exposure to infected fluids never transmits HIV. However, your symptoms still require prompt medical attention: any unexplained abdominal pain should be checked out as there are many serious causes -- in your case, maybe pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), i.e. Fallopian tube infection due to STD. Good luck.
