Hello. Thank you for writing to us
I am dr. kakkar (dermatologist and venereologist). I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.
A screening test done at or beyond 3 months from last risky sexual contact is conclusive. Your screening test came negative at 6 months from last risky sexual exposure therefore it is conclusive.
Regards

thanks for time doctor .can i go for unprotected sex with my wife and doctor what abt my throat pain is this symptoms of hiv or not because im suffering from 1 month please help me and even i have loose weight please help me wheather im safe or not please help
Brief Answer:
You are safe
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
You can indulge in sexual intercourse with your wife.
Throat pain and weight loss are not specific symptoms of HIV infection. Moreover weight loss is significant if it is more than 10% within the last 6 months.
As far as throat pain is concerned i suggest you to visit an ENT specialist who would do a thorough examination for a local cause, most likely an infection. You may as well talk to an internal medicine specialist for weight loss.
