Depends : Will depend on the HIV status of your partner. see a doctor to arrange baseline and follow up testing and advice around whether you need prevention therapy while waiting. If partners status unknown you may need 2 tests several months apart to check

I have seen some docs on this forum saying condom sex is not 100% safe with regards to anal and hiv but is that just if the condom was to break or slip of are condoms safe if used properly ?
