testing

hey every body i was hoping to get some feed back on some questions i had.

1.does it matter what "generation" antibody test u take at a little over four months of one unprotected vaginal sex?
2. Is my little over four month home access hiv test express good enough?
3. do the high risk, low risk possible encounter matter after my negative results?

I had an encounter Oct. 1st unprotected vaginal sex and i got my results back today they are negative. i just needed to talk to some one about my guestions, Thanks

As long as the test is approved by a medical body then yes. But you can go to most places and get a rapid test done and results in 15-20 mins.
