Brief Answer:
no need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic .

With protected sex chances of transfer of hiv is very less. Test after 7 months is very confirmative. Since after 7 months your test is negative you are very unlikely to be suffering from hiv infection. So don't worry.

Because test result for hiv comes confirmative after 3 months of exposure.

Hope I have answered your query . If any further queries are there I would love to help.
