Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Are you sure it is Vaginal thrush and nothing else? what are the symptoms?
You do not need to worry about HIV because of the thrush. But if you had unprotected sex, then you should be worried.
Getting a test done after 4.5 weeks does not rule out HIV as it can be in the window period. Get yourself tested again after 6weeks of intercourse to be sure.
Anticipating your response,
