Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Window period for HIV is 4-6 weeks, may be delayed up to 12 weeks in certain cases. All the tests including the HIV rapid tests are highly reliable to the extent of more than 97% or above. Your consecutive nonreactive tests after the widow period ensured that you are free from HIV infection. Your 4th generation tests will also reinforce the same. Good day to you!
