You did not answer my other two questions.

Also, there are no doctors in these forums.

1) What was your risk?
2) When did you take the test (number of days after risk event)?
3) What do the results say?

1. Risk: unprotected anal sex with a man.
2. Three month ago.
3. I am female. 4 . I did antibodies test. It is negative. But I also want to know what this RNA test mean.
An RNA test is not accurate at this time, so it is pointless to take it or read it now.  It was negative anyway.

You did antibody test after three months? If so, THAT test is conclusive and you should stop testing.  You are negative for HIV.
Yes , I did antibodies after three months, and it is negative. Do you mean my RNA test results are negative either?
ALL of your tests are negative.  You do no have HIV.
