Yes, DNA pcr test after 21 days are accurate. I advise you to take proper balanced vegetarian diet. Take plenty of water daily. Take fruits and vegetables in daily. Do meditation for mental strength daily. Take milk and milk products daily. Improve your immunity. Follow this and give feedback.

Just chill as fear is worse than actual hiv disease aas it increase suicidal tendency and severe psychological problems too. Just put a stop to all testing and start living and let a proper doctor like me decide with full faith.

It was wrong strategy to stop PEP at 13 days. You will need tests at 90 days - HIV, HBsAg and VDRL. Then take Private Consult with Audio-Video chat, so that I can guide you properly.

Especially as you have used condom ther is no chance for HIV and for hiv to come she must be infected with it. I think you do not know her HIV status There is no need for further test.

Though you are hiv negative, possible std infection can not be ruled out. Please do hbsag and vdrl tests and urine routine. Take hbv vaccines. To better understand the risk and consequences of stds please take private consult with audio and chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what is to be done.
