Can pep (truvada) increase the window period? test six weeks after i end pep or after exposure? thanks!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No change expected.: To summarize, post exposure prophylaxis should not change the window period. I would retest at six weeks after exposure. Then again at three months post exposure to be sure.
