Question 1

what's the accuracy of hiv test in 2 weeks after unsafe sex?and aslo 4 weeks after unsafe sex?cause i'm so much worry can't wait for three months.

Accepted Answer

Wait: An early test might show hiv, but you really can't know for sure until 3-6 months unfortunately. Get tested now but also get the 3 and 6 month tests. If you think this was a high risk exposure you should also be tested for other stds as well as hepatitis b ; c which can be transmitted sexually.

Question 2

is hiv elisa test accurate after three months? do i need retest if it is negative after three months? i cant wait more. suggest me a quick test plz

Accepted Answer

Get HIV RNA test: For definitive dx of HIV infection, you need to have your blood tested for the presence and quantity of the virus (its RNA)

Question 3

hello what is the accurate window period to rule out hiv? is it 6 weeks 3 months or 6 months? i have been told all three and im really confused and concerned i tested negative at dr at 6 months! but do i need to test more later or what im confused?

Accepted Answer

: With the standard blood test (i.e. antigen-antibody test -- AgAb, combo, 4th generation), it's 6 weeks for sure. Older tests took longer, and for various reasons some health agencies and physicians have not changed their previous advice. And anybody can post anything they want online. But a negative AgAb test 6 weeks after the last possible exposure for sure is conclusive.

Question 4

three days shy of three months when taking std test that included hiv how accurate is it and should i be retested any help is greatly appreciated?

Accepted Answer

Results conclusive: The modern, routine HIV tests are conclusive by 4 wk (for the 4th generation, antigen-antibody tests) or 6-8 weeks (for the antibody tests). Three months is old news, left over from older tests no longer in routine use. So your test just short of 3 months will be conclusive. Any other STD blood tests also will be conclusive. No further testing will be necessary.

Question 5

can you tell me about hiv aids blood test two or three years just one time after infection the result can be true or false. please help how shoul i do for accurate?

Accepted Answer

See details: If you tested negative after 2-3 years then you are negative and do not have the virus.

You're good: Be thankful for good health, and love safely from now on out of consideration for yourself and others, as a gentleman. You were wise to check. Get a follow-up from time to time, but the overwhelming odds are that you are not infected. Nobody even knows the false-negative rate for this because it's so low.
