Oraquick 3 months reliable

Is a negative oraquick test enough at 3 months or do I need a lab test? The test kit said it misses 1 in 12 positive cases so it doesn't feel very conclusive. Also I had unprotected anal sex so there is an actual risk. Do you guys think I need a lab test?

It's conclusive at 28 days.  What was your risk.

And oraquick is conclusive at 3 months.  Count on it.
Your unprotected anal was a risk but you're conclusively negative.
So is the study that said it's only 92% outdated?
