Brief Answer:
No need for HIV test.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Gervisjpond,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

The risk of getting HIV from protected anal sex is not there so no need to go for any HIV test as such but if still you want to get tested then go for CMIA 4th gen Duos test to confirm your status.

Thank You
