No

I am a suspect waiting for 6 week conclusive duo test. Had a 3 week Duo test which was negative.

Just for the ease of my mind and gaining some knowlege i am asking this question.
Our forum is for assessing risks, and giving advice on prevention and testing.  Everyone who answers questions is a volunteer, and we do not answer questions just made out of curiosity, because those will be an endless time suck.  

If you have a question about your own risk event, please feel free to ask here.
I dnt know about the risk associated with my exposure. Some said that no testing is required and some asked me to wait for 3 months for a conclusive test.

I had sex with a girl (CSW) unprotected during the end of the session. That on 1st of October.

Duo Test on 21st was Negative.
The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected (no condom) penetrative anal or vaginal sex, OR
2) Sharing IV drug equipment with other IV drug users.

HIV isn't transmitted by sexual intercourse when you wear a condom.  You had zero risk for HIV.  There is no detail that you could add to this event that would make it a risk for HIV.  You did not need to test for this no-risk event, and you definitely don't need to test again.
I had unprotected sex during the end of session.

for 2 3 mins
I'm sorry, I misread your post.

A DUO is conclusive any time 28 days after this event, or any time after that.
I am at 40th day

So If a go for a duo that will be confirmative

No need for further testing?
That question was answered, and you already said in your first post that it was going to be conclusive.  Good luck with your test after 4 weeks.
