Hi Doctors,
As a male I had a protected encounter with a female csw in Thailand. It was very brief, around 30 seconds and oil was applied on the condom. So not sure it broke or not, didn't notice it, worried since oil was applied.

Have done 6 4th gen duo tests on 16th, 22nd, 28th, 36th, 42st and 60th day after exposure on Abott Alinity Platform. All came out negative.

After 80 days had slight sore throat, fever with nasal congestion and phlegm, muscle aches. Fever and sore throat resolved in 1 day, the cold took a few days more.
I was completely okay post this.
After 100 days had 2 nights of sore throat (that became better during the day), cough, very mild fever for a day and loss of taste and smell. These symptoms resolved in 2 days and did Covid test because of the smell issue, which came out negative.


- Do these symptoms indicate delayed seroconversion? Especially as they came back to back in a gap of 20 days?
- Can symptoms start this late? Can they be this short? (~ 2 days each time)
- Is there a possibility of Hiv 2 infection, having a longer window period?
- Do I need to test again or are my tests 100% conclusive?
