Would see your gynecologist. Your dry vagina might indicate a hormonal issue and could represent early menopause. Not clear exactly what it could be but it warrants a visit to the gynecologist in short order for further evaluation.

Even if your GF has HIV you are at low risk. If she does not have HIV, there is no risk. Both of you could get tested to reassure yourselves.
