Only way to get infected with hiv is getting in contact with body fluids of infected person.
If both of you are monogamous, and tested negative then you shouldn't get infected.

Best would be to repeat it after 3 months of exposure as three dot test is antibody based and it may not be accurate in early window period.

Because combo is combination of p24 antigen and antibody test.
Antibody detect accurately after 3 months
p24 can detect early after 3 weeks but it is less sensitive
means there are chances of false negatives
so we advice to repeat after 3 months to avoid false results.

There are two types of htlv tests: the htlv-i/ii antibody test and the htlv-i/ii nucleic acid test (nat). The htlv-i/ii antibody test is the most commonly used test and can detect the presence of htlv antibodies in the blood. The window period for this test is typically around four to eight weeks after exposure to the virus. However, in cases, it take longer for individual to produce enough antibodies for the test to detect.
The htlv-i/ii nat/pcr test is a more sensitive test that can detect...more

The hiv 3rd generation test is a sensitive and accurate test that detects the presence of hiv antibodies in the blood. It can be used to detect hiv infection in individuals who have been exposed to the virus at least three weeks prior to the test. The presence of ssris in the body is unlikely to interfere with the test's ability to detect hiv antibodies.
Actually most drugs do not affect test efficiency.
Only some immunosuppression drugs, chemo, steroids may affect test accuracy.

Most likely these tests are reliable about 99 percent.
So you are likely not to have hiv.
I don't think you need to repeat them.
But you can just confirm after 1 year of exposure to be extra sure if you like.
