yes! now be more careful about your condom not slipping in future. apply lube on the outside of the condom before entry.
On 21 day l make aging duo and it also neg is 21 day in my situation negative is a good sign for total neg?
4th day...way too early. earliest i have heard is 8-9 days post exposure and that is considered early.
So situation that I make test after simptoms and stoping them didn't increase valid of test?
If simptoms was of hiv so antibody or antigène must be visible

Hi, a duo test can be considered conclusive at 28 days and 3 months without question.

Condoms are the most effective way to prevent HIV and STDs.
PrEP is used by people with high risk to prevent HIV infection.
Can I get HIV from surfaces, like toilet seats?
Can you get HIV from casual contact, like hugging?
Frequency of HIV testing depends on your risk.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) may help prevent HIV infection.
I would guess that you are just worrying about the Condom, - if it came off you would know about it, - as long as the head of your Penis was covered during sex you will be fine and this constitutes NO RISK.
As with the very accurate advice above, a negative Duo test at 28 days is conclusive, you only need to re-test if you saw believe the Condom fell off and you were inside the CSW without it on - otherwise a test is just not required.
As with the great advice given to you above, a 28 day test is Conclusive, - even at day 17 there is a strong chance it would pick up the Antigen, I personally know that this has been picked up at day 11 on a test.
My feelings are that you are just worrying unnecessarily, - the CSW probably did not have HIV anyway and even if she did, there is only a 1 in 1000 chance you would catch it from one exposure.
Best Wishes!
