You were never exposed to HIV, therefore your risk remains non existent. No need for test or getting confused with numbers and probabilities. You had protected sex, and your protection did not fail, No Risk, Period, end of story

Let's put it this way. The odds she had HIV, probably no more than 1 in 100. The odds of catching HIV from a woman, less than 1 in 2000. So already, you're odds aren't any higher than 1 in 200,000. Combine that with the fact you used a command, the odds approach zero, and there is no appreciable risk. While a test at two weeks isn't conclusive, it provides further evidence against a new HIV infection, if that's even possible. Bottom line: the most harmful thing you can do at this point is waste your time and energy chasing a problem you don't have. Move on with your life, and if you're feeling guilt and shame about what you did (which you shouldn't by the way), don't let that cloud reality and the facts that you're fine.
