URGENT ADVICE NEEDED

I had protected sex two times with two different sex workers almost a year back. I did an HIV test after 3 months and the result was negative. However i have heard that you have to test after 6 months to be absolutely sure. Also I am not sure if I used a LATEX condom or not. Should i test again or was the 3 month negative test conclusive. If it was not a LATEX condom, was there a chance that I might have got infected?

Please respond as I am not sure if I used a LATEX condom or not?

If yo  have symptoms now 2 months ago, or in 10 years they are not related to hiv, first you didint had a risk becouse you had protecetd sex, then your test confirms that you are hiv negative, so forget about it and mive on

Keep it safe always use condoms

does this mean that if i experience symptoms after 6 months, it is not due to this exposure. I have got tested at 3 months and the results were negative?

3 months is conclusive not counting you had protected sex. So the use of a latex condom or not, you are still negative.
