How often do you get tested?
-
being active in sexual activities i follow my social health doctor's advice for 4x a year. i have no problem with that since testing is free in my country and it also alleviates me of worries since i include the other std tests with it by paying a small amount. i really recommend having regular tests.
I am negative and my partner is positive. I get tested every 3 months, well, 4x a year.

I have never been
-
one per year, whatever, although, i ever use protection
-
once a year as it's required at work

What?!?! Where do you work? Depending on the circumstances, I would be inclined to say that's a violation of your rights and your privacy because your medical history in that regard has no bearing on anyone else in the workplace, unless you're dealing with open wounds, without proper universal precautions.

I get tested every 6 months and have for a number of years

I know the military requires yearly HIV tests. It all comes down to being ready and able to deploy.

Every months, I am a blood donor

Only once back in 2012, coz it's a requirement when another company hired me (same job description) and I'm very nervous, there's all such thing that enters my mind of "what if" coz it's the first time I've been tested…...I just had a sigh of relief when the result came out and it is negative

so how do you guys do it? I always wonder. do you perform BJ with condom aside from the anal? or you wait until his viral is low?

I do about once a year but what about you
Every three months, even whem I'm always safe. But I guess that will depend on you sexual life and how often you exchange partners.

I get tested every 3 months with my family physician and also get full blood workups done, better to be safe and know everything about your health, and on a regular basis, than be sorry.
I also haven't had sex since my last relationship over 3 years ago, but I still insist my doctor do the HIV test every time I do my blood work. It's nice to always have an up-to-date status for when I do get back into another relationship. I don't do hookups either.

Well since being to a commited relationship I do not get tested, but before going bareback with my partner we did all the tests to be sure we were healthy.
-
every 3-4 months

I sincerely hope that this works for you. Having spent a lot of time as a volunteer at a local clinic, I saw cases where someone would come in who believed that their partner was committed to them, only to find out that their partner had brought them home an undesired present or "gift" as it were. Granted, I know nothing about you or your partner, however I sincerely hope that this does not become the case for you.

3-4 months or when I remember that it hasn't been a while, hehe
-
When I was sexually active I did it every 3 months or so. I did have sex for about 9 months and really should get tested again now the window period has passed.
-
Every 6 to a year months even though i've had the same partner for the passed three years
-
i usually get tested every 4 mos. if possible i'd bring a friend or an acquaintance to get them to have the habit of regular testing.

recently on PrEP and tested once a month on the 24th.
