You can obtain your conclusive negative test result 3 months post exposure if you indeed had an exposure.

If one has ARS they come on 2-4 weeks post exposure and last 1-2 weeks. Oral sex is not a risk of HIV transmission.

There are no tests marketed or sold to give a conclusive negative test result earlier that 3 months post exposure.

Thanks for your kind advise ....

My second generation Rapid Tri-Dot test came negative after 104days post exposure of unprotected sexual....so i should call it conclusive for that encounter???

Other test were as follows :
On 11th week mark -- it was p24antigen combo test
On 12th week mark -- it was rapid tri-dot test
