HIV testing window period

[angel2104]

I had protected sex 3 weeks ago but was drunk and it was with a random person who's sexual history and HIV status is unknown and because I was drunk I can't remember it fully and fear the condom may have broken, fell off or been taken off during. I am booked in for a test at 6 weeks however not sure if this is right but it's what the clinic did so I'm sure they know what they're doing. It's a duo/ combined test testing for both antigen and antibody but I read they should be done sooner on the internet I read that antigen may only be detectable for first 4-5 weeks and antibody not detectable for 3 months so if I go between after the 4-5 weeks and before he 3 months I'm scared it won't find anything
Also read that 6 weeks is that right time to do this test so I'm not sure what to believe with 2 conflicting things
Presuming 6 weeks is correct and I go that day does it matter that I had the sex the Monday night very late at night more like Tuesday technically Tuesday morning like 1-2:30am and then I get he test in 6 weeks but on the Monday morning at 10am its booked in for does it matter about that one day? Should I have booked for Tuesday? Should I get it changed?

Some say the DUO is conclusive at 4 weeks and over, some, including me, always go for testing at 12 weeks post exposure. Take the duo or any antibody test at the 6 week appointment and then follow up at 12 weeks post exposure with another antibody test for a conclusive result.
If the antigen becomes undetectable after about 4 weeks, the antibody part of the test for antibodies for "HIV-1" if present.
Either way, a negative with a DUO or 3rd gen test at 6 weeks is extremely unlikely to change at 12 weeks ((almost conclusive with the DUO)).
And why on earth have you made so many threads ??????

One more thing concerning your other questions. First of all, the fact that there is talk of a condom is already encouraging, whether you remember it breaking or not. It shows your partner does practice safe sex and probably did so when he went to Thailand, not to mention that Thais are actually quite wary and careful themselves in terms of protection.
You had no risk from the fingering, and you should try to stop analyzing your symptoms as the only thing this will do is drive you crazy. Just wait for the test and try not to think about this very much, as the odds seem to  be in your favour.
