Two problems:
1) rename hivline hv003 is renaming to the wrong variable. hv003 is the line number of the respondent to the household questionnaire, not the line number of the woman or man whose data you are interested in. You need to use
rename hivline ha0
where ha0 is the line number of the woman.
2) Your merge should be a 1:1 merge, not a many to one merge.

You will first need to merge the data with the women's biomarker data, then repeat the process using hb0 to merge with the men's biomarker data.
