Brief Answer:
You can go for HIV testing after 6 months of exposure to be completely sure

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX, welcome to HCM. First of all you have to find whether the massage girl was HIV positive or not. Second, the risk of getting HIV from sucking of nipples and breasts is very remote and also your all the test results are negative so no need to worry at present. As far as your symptoms are concerned they might be due to some fungal or viral infection mostly for which you can contact your local physician and go for some investigations to rule out the cause. Third, I will advice you to go for repeat HIV testing after 6 months of exposure to be completely sure about your status. Be relaxed and hope for the best. Thank You

But some doctors said like 3 months is conclusive
And if there any people get HIV just from suking nipples once no sex at all
What the most important I read in online they said when HIV come to body u will get symptoms after 2 weeks and more and from sucking the nipples after 2 weeks I had all this like I am very sure that I have the virus in my body
Really I did not feel like this before in my life

Brief Answer:
Yes at the end of three months antibody test is about 95 to 97% conclusive.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

the tests you had done are mostly antibody tests. Antibody against HIV would appear in the blood by 6-8 weeks or may be delayed up to 3 months in the presence of infection. After 3 months about 97% of people will have enough antibodies to test positive. That is why at the end of 3 months antibody test is about 95-97% conclusive.

On the other hand, Antigen test is conclusive in earlier period post exposure by 3-4 weeks. So don't worry at present and go for repeat testing after 6 months to be 100% conclusive. As far as your symptoms are concerned they might be due to some other infection and not related to HIV as I had already told earlier.

Thank You
