For peace in mind i did 4th generation hiv test and also hepatit C test.
i did the test after 27 weeks so i guess Teak you was right no hiv .
My doctor in std that 12 weeks is conclusive for everyone and after 24 weeks none need to test because the test today is very good and 6 month is in the past only people take pep hiv medicine test after up to 24 weeks.

Teak do you agree
Thanks for your time :)

Thanks for all info Teak!
But when only when is it recommending to hiv test after 24 weeks? If pep is 3 month after finished last dos pep it will be about 16 weeks. So is 24 weeks old stuff?  No more questions after this :)

1. Oral sex is not a risk
2. 3 months is conclusive
3. If taking nPEP, the test results are conclusive 3 months post the last dose of nPEP.

Hi thanks for our answer it helps to hear that no risk and hiv test outside window period means I'm truly hiv negativ :)  I have been very worried about this and being afraid my test was false negativ. One more and last question. In sweden they say the same as you 12 weeks and pep max 24 weeks for conclusive result . So is 24 weeks negativ the longest it could take. So 12 weeks and 24 weeks negativ always means you are truley hiv negativ?  This will be my last question to you. And thanks again for good and helpful info. :)

Thanks for reply :)  so reciped oral sex is no risk and I'm not even need  to test for this incident? And I have 3 hiv test negativ so hiv positiv later because of false negativ test is not something that can happened?  My fear is that my symptoms are hiv related but not showing up in hiv test. So I'm hiv negativ right   no risk for oral and 3 negativ hiv test is totally conclusive.
