Test result conclusively
I have taken the following tests after a potential exposure, I did use a condom but was drunk and cannot be sure that it remained intact throughout.
10 day early detection, non-reactive.
24 day duo 4th gen, non-reactive
31 day duo 4th gen, non-reactive
54 day duo 4th gen, non-reactive
Are these results enough to rule out infection and can I just move on?

That's a whole lot of testing that wasn't necessary. Having said that, your tests are conclusive. You don't have HIV.

Thank you, yes, I think it is the anxiety that made me test so much. So there would be no need to re-test at 90 days? why do some websites say that 90 days is conclusive? Is this just a different type of test?
90 days is only for the 3rd-generation test. Any site that advises testing with a DUO out to 90 days is incorrect and/or extremely out-of-date.
That makes sense, thank you. Can I just confirm that this test is the DUO? HIV 1&2 Abs/P24 Ag screen
It is.
