4th Generation HIV DUO include P24

Almost after 4 week I have gone through the 4th gen test and it came negative.
That situation happen because of a condom break.
When I was with CSW and condom break maybe for 10 or 20 sec unprotected as I was guided on the form that it has no risk or a very little theoretical risk.
Is it Conclusive or should I worried more ?
Any other test needed ?
On Google there are too many confusing post are there.

Basically HIV is very difficult to get or to give we need a vigrous and long lasting sex which is not the case here. You had risk like falling from plane flying in sky. Remember always risk means risk and it does not mean you had got hiv so dont be anxious and dont go for test for such exposures as they are of meaningless risk.

There are only few doubts left in my mind please clarify them also ...
1) why index value changes from .04 to .18 , will it is a matter of concern ?
2) Many people still say a 90 day test is confirmatory if it is so than why people wasting there money after 28 days .
3) should I need to test again ?
I am spending too much time on internet and worrying , please help.

No need for this new thread, since you were told to test at 28, not to test early which you have done.

But i was told by doctor to go through the test i.e P24 thats why i gone for the same .
As pet the forum they told me to go at 28 day thats why i go today and it is negative.
Is it conclusivr ?
Your story keeps changing. Now you say you tested at 28 days which is 4 weeks.
You were advised before to test at 28 for a conclusive result, so I don't understand why you are asking if it can be conclusive.
Sir ,
I consult 2 doctors in India where I was advised that the chances are low not zero and I can go for p24 antigen test now.
So as per there advise I tested than bit there after I came to know about this forum and 28 day test was performed on advise of expertise over here .
Please dont take me wrong .
I am just asking and done what was said to me.
You are receiving different advice from your doctors that what this forum advises.Reread the original advice you got here and you will see the difference. Asking the same question repeatedly will not change that.

It is up to you to make the choice of whose advice you wish to follow. No one here is going to call your doctor and try to explain to them how hiv testing works.
Ok .
I understand what you try to say .
My last question should i need further testing ?
No. You don't need to test anymore. Now move on with your life. You don't have HIV.
Thanks mike_no
