Please Help

I had unsafe sex 8 days ago. I'm really scared that I might had been exposed to HIV. I have chills all over my body time to time, I'm very tired and I have a headache. Please tell me is this any sign that I have HIV??
Please help me

I think that you dont have HIV fisrt of all because you have protected sex. Those symptoms may be caused by stress.

Unsafe sex is a risk.  If you use statistics, in order for you to have been infected:

1. Your partner would have had to have HIV

2. The virus would have had to been transmitted

You didnt provide your actual risk so it's hard to comment.

Testing before three months can give some sort of indication, however, three months is the magic number for a conclusive result.
