Test results conclusive?

Dear Doctor,

I am from Thailand, (sorry for my bad English language) I did have a sex 1 year ago (Dec 6, 2012) with a commercial sex worker and using protected vaginal by condom and then it did not break or fail. After that, I have tested at Hospital by following information.

- 1st; Feb 5, 2013 (CMIA method: Negative)
- 2nd; July 14, 2013 (ELISA method: Negative)
- 3rd; Sept 28, 2013 (ELISA method: Negative)
- 4th; Oct 24, 2013 (CMIA method: Negative)  

But, I still concern and worried about windows period and the infection issue; I would like to ask you about the following.

- What are my chances of being infected with HIV? How long should I wait until being tested?

- In some resource in Thailand (Website) it says that for some people it takes 6 months and even 12 months for an immune response, how can one know about this.

- Can I confident about conclusive of my test results?

Please kindly advise me? Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Sunny

You had protected sex and didn't have an exposure nor did you need testing.
