The main cause of getting infected from hiv is unprotected sex.
Hiv is a virus that lives in human blood, sexual fluids, and breast milk. It weakens your immune system, so your body has a hard time fighting off common germs, viruses, fungi, and other invaders. Hiv doesn't live in saliva, tears, pee, or sweat -- so it can't be spread by casual contact with these body fluids.
If still in doubt, connect with me via call for right consultation.

The p24 antigen test can detect the p24 protein on average 10 to 14 days after infection with hiv. One drawback of this test is that levels of the p24 protein peak at around three to four weeks after exposure to hiv and are usually not detectable after five to six weeks (and sometimes even earlier).

Hello-
virtually all infected, immunocompetent individuals are seropositive 6 months after exposure. A mononucleosis-like syndrome develops in some individuals 2 to 4 weeks after infection; p24 antigen can appear transiently during this period.

If antigen test is negative, there is no need to repeat rtpcr if you have no symptoms. If you have any symptoms, do rt pcr. No one can predict how the result will be. There are rt pcr negative case as well.
In this case, since you have no symptoms, no need to repeat rt pcr.
Stay safe.

P24 are present in high levels of newly infected individual during the short period between infection and seroconversion, making it useful in diagnosing primary HIV infection. Antibodies to p24 are produced during seroconversion, rendering p24 undetectable after seroconversion in most cases.
