the 3% of very rare cases are people that had chemo, used antirejection transplant drugs, lupus or any other imune disorder that could afect the production of antibodies, if you don have one of those extenuant circunstances then you don need further testing. Some places like Australia or Massachusets would even call it done at 6 weeks, this is a chart of the normal progresion of hiv.

Because your doctor would let you know if you meet the conditions to be in that very rare 3% that take a while to develop antibodies. If a doctor didnt tell you that you might fall into that catagory than 3 moths is conclusive.

How long after a possible exposure should I wait to get tested for HIV?
Most HIV tests are antibody tests that measure the antibodies your body makes against HIV. It can take some time for the immune system to produce enough antibodies for the antibody test to detect, and this time period can vary from person to person. This time period is commonly referred to as the “window period.” Most people will develop detectable antibodies within 2 to 8 weeks (the average is 25 days). Even so, there is a chance that some individuals will take longer to develop detectable antibodies. Therefore, if the initial negative HIV test was conducted within the first 3 months after possible exposure, repeat testing should be considered >3 months after the exposure occurred to account for the possibility of a false-negative result. Ninety-seven percent of persons will develop antibodies in the first 3 months following the time of their infection. In very rare cases, it can take up to 6 months to develop antibodies to HIV.

Geez, enough testing? You only need 1 test after 12 weeks, not 8 tests scattered all over.
