Brief Answer:
Basic blood & urine tests does not reveal anything about sexual status

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXX,

Thanks for your query.

A. The medical tests carried out before undertaking a foreign trip basically aims to check the general health of an individual and to detect whether he/ she is having any underlying disease or not.

B. The blood test and urine tests carried out are basic ones. The blood tests does not reveal anything about the sexual status of an individual. If she was pregnant, it would have been detected through Urine pregnancy test (which is usually not done). As the pregnancy test is already negative, that possibility is ruled out.

C. However, the only risk will be the presence of any sexually transmitted disease, which if present may be detected in the blood and urine tests. As per your post, you had a protected sexual intercourse, so this possibility is also ruled out.

There is no need to worry.
Wish you both a healthy life & best wishes for future.
Take care.
