It's possible to test negative for HIV after 3 months. A negative test after 140 days is conclusive. Now in future practice safe sex, you don't need this problem.

Both test results are conclusive all by themselves. It is 100% certain you do not have HIV, assuming no additional exposures ftter the one you have been concerned about.
