Hello!
I had gone through your query.
If you have unprotected intercourse with a partner and you don't know her HIV status (I mean you don't know if she is infected or no) it is possible to get infected with HIV because she might be HIV positive (infected).
The chance you get infected by unprotected intercourse is highly increased if you have different partners.
In your case if these sexual intercourse are all unprotected the risk of being infected is very high.
Not only HIV but there are many disease can be transmitted during unprotected intercourse(Syphilis,gonorrhea,genital herpes etc).
If you have had unprotected intercourse I suggest to get tested right away for HIV infection and avoid this in future for your own safe.
Hope my answer has helped.
Take care.
