Exclamation PCR Test after 21 days.. Advice plzz

I asked this question in previous thread. That thread was closed so i created a new one here. Sorry.

Hi Dr,

Thanks in advance. Now I am in US. Two weeks ago I had protected sex with a escort about 2 mins. Gentle kissing involved. After the single episode i verified condom were good. After that incident some of my friends were escorts are mostly infected. This made driving crazy and am running out of mind. Please advise and am i infected hiv.

Do i need to go test?

I planned to take PCR test at 21 days mark. It this accurate?

Hello

You used a condom so it does not matter whether she was HIV positive or not.

If you have protected sex - ie use a condom for penetrative vaginal or anal sex and the condom stays on and does not break or rupture - as you have proved, you will not become HIV positive.

Your PCR test will confirm that you are HIV negative.

Kind regards, Sean

Now it 23rd day and i don't have any symptoms. I got the results as well:

HIV-1 RNA QN RT PCR Result : <20 NOT DETECTED - Negative
HIV-1 Antibody, HIV - 1/2, EIA With Reflex to Western Blot Result: NON-REACTIVE - Negative

1. Can i move on without any worries about HIV fear?
2. Do I need any further test after 8 or 12 weeks?

Please advice.

Default HIV PCR TEST at 21 days

Good Morning

No, you do not need any further testing. The results you have are good. You are not HIV positive.

best wishes, Sean
