Indulged In Sexual Activity. Get Myself Tested For HIV?

Hi. I got myself tested for HIV on 29/11/12 and it turned out to be negative. Since then I have not indulged in any sexual intercourse except for last month when I had oral sex with my girlfriend. She did not do anything. I only licked her private parts. But we didn t indulge in complete sexual intercourse. So should I get myself tested again.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.

The chances of getting HIV through oral sex with a female is very very low. You had mentioned that the HIV Test done on 29-11-12 was negative. But you didn't mentioned when was your last sex contact before the test and what type of sex contact was that? If the exposure was not protected and if it falls within the window period (3 months), then the present result was not valuable.
It is good for you to for another test 3 months after this oral contact and see a negative result for HIV will be safe for you.
Best wishes.
