Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic

As far as HIV is concerned you don't need to test any further because 90 days screening test for HIV antibodies by ELISA is considered to be conclusive.
Since your ELISA screening test has turned out to be negative at more than 90 days after your last sexual activity therefore your last sexual activity with regard to HIV is clean.
However, it would be better if you maintain sexual relations with just one trustworthy partner because multiple sexual partners risk the chances of an STD as you cannot always be sure about the sexual activities of all of them whether they are engaged with someone else apart from you.
I would suggest that you visit a sexual health specialist for counselling regarding safe sex practices.

Regards
Always practice safe sex with a condom!
