Hello doctors i had a risky sexual exposure and have tested negative for htlv1 by pcr 6 months after exposure . does this pcr rule out htlv1? not hiv
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HTLV-1 exposure: ...is predominantly from mother to child (typically through breastfeeding), sexual intercourse, and blood contact, including the transfusion of infected cellular products or sharing of needles and syringes. If your risky sexual contacts continue, so does your risk of dangerous STD's regardless of the result of a single negative PCR assay.
