you had PROTECTED sex and never had a risk.

if you are having health concerns, see your dr...its NOT hiv related.

We can't provide the proper assessment if you are not going to be honest about your exposure.

"Hello I had protected anal sex with a man where I was the insertive because his penis wasnt hard enough in condom to be able to get inside of me."

3 months will be conclusive but a test now will be highly accurate.

You can't (and shouldn't) use symptoms to assess your HIV status.  If you had unprotected intercourse with someone of an unknown status then you should get tested.  A negative result at the 6-8 week mark will be almost 100% accurate with an antibody test, so you can do one now for reassurance purposes and then follow it up with a conclusive 3 month result.
