Someone help

Hi,

I had unprotected sex in january 14th..however it literally lasted about 10 seconds as something came up...i was just wondering if due to the exposure being a short period of time.


i have been tested numerous times...at 7,10,13,17 an 28 weeks.(i think i have ocd)
and all the tests have been negative.

But do you think that as the sex was only for a short time,it could maybe take longer for hiv to show up...

or i should just stop worrying.??

thanks guys

that doesnt EVEN make sense.

you could have stopped testing at the 13 week mark, at which time you had a RELIABLE AND CONCLUSIVE test result.  you do NOT have hiv and do NOT need further testing.
