HIV Test

Dear Sir
             I had safe( using condom) sexual intercourse with unknown lady, after two and half months from the date of intercourse I took HIV DNA PCR test two times with two week intervals, Result was Negative , now I am suffering from UTI past 2 months even after taking antibitic for UTI, my doubt is that I have to take test for HIV again?

You never had a risk and you wasted the money on an unapproved test for no reason what so ever.

If the condom wasn't broken during the intercourse, then there was no risk to you.

He didn't say whether the condom had been broken.

Had the condom broke he wouldn't have started in his statement that he had safe condom protected sex.

Just to make it explicit because he's worried like tons of other users here.

What's wrong with getting an explicit answer? Yes or no, and then we all know whether he really had risk. After all, I've written an IF.

You shouldn't have written an "IF" that's what the problem is. He stated safe (condom use). Had he had a condom failure he would have stated it.
