negative. I know him (this wasn't some random guy), but I don't know him well enough to completely trust that he is tested regularly/recently.
I am planning to get tested at the three-and-a-half week mark, three month mark, and six month mark. In the meantime, what are the approximate odds that I have been infected (I realize there is no foolproof way to pinpoint odds)?
Thank you for any help you can give to keep my nerves
you had put yourself at risk by having unprotected anal sex.most people will not lie about their HIV status but:1some of them do 2.some of them are unaware of their HIV infection
a test after 12 weeks is all what you need.not 3 and half week or 6 months.
if you want to have a good indicator of your status you can test after6-8 weeks after your sex but only a test after 12weeks is fully conclusive.
One time exposure from a person you have known is unlikely to transmit HIV, take note most people don't lie with with their status. . However an exposure is always as an exposure. 6-8 weeks is the greate indicator of your status. 12 months is the conclusive result.
You can have him go for a test also to ease your anxiety. If he's clear then the odds is all in favor with you.
