A member asked:
I had unprotected sex 3 weeks ago, was worried about hiv but the woman in question had a finger stick test to calm my nerves it was negative, good?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but: A person could be infected with HIV & be infectious but test HIV negative during the window period. For a 4th generation antigen/antibody test, the window period is about four weeks.
