A member asked:
How accurate is a hiv rna pcr test taken 72 hours after last sexual contact?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not accurate: It will not be accurate for current sexual encounter. It will give you a base line response for prior sexual encounters. If you are concerned about current experience, you can test in 1 month and then again in 6 months.
