A member asked:
Negative results with hiv 4th gen antibody/antigen test and hiv rna at exactly 4 weeks followed by another neg result for 4th gen ag/ab at 6 weeks are these results considered conclusive? do i need to retest in 3 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No retest needed: The AgAb HIV blood test, all by itself, is 100% conclusive at 6 weeks. The combination of that negative test plus negative RNA at 4 weeks also is conclusive. There is no need to retest at 3 months.
