Thank you for your question and lab results. I believe that you are safe from getting the hepatitis by this encounter specially since you used a condom. These blood-borne pathogen‘s can be passed in semen but given the situation and your lab reports it is unlikely that you are infected from the single exposure. Continue to be vigilant and practice safe measures. Thanks!

Your risk is remote. You should consider getting vaccination for Hep B. If you wish engage in sex with other men, consider going on pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV. Get HPV vaccine. Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines
