It was 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 10 months after sex and all of the results are negative
Brief Answer:
Your tests are conclusive
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thank you. Your tests are conclusive because they are well past the window period which is 3 months for a 3rd generation test and 2-4 weeks for a 4th generation. Your symptoms are certainly not due to HIV.
