Duo test

I had negative duo test twice i.e. 2 weeks and 32 days post unprotected vaginal sex exposure with VERY Very promiscuous women. what are the chances of turning out positive after 3 months?

I read in many places thats its conclusive after 4 weeks if thats the case then why do we have to repeat the test at 3 months

Your 4 week Duo result is highly reliable but in some cases people can be negative at 4 weeks with a standard antibody test and positive at 6-8 weeks. All tests are positive at 8 weeks if infected. Some people take longer to produce antibodies. That's why you have to test again at three weeks. When I have tested its for 4 weeks, again at 8 weeks and finish out at 12.
