A member asked:
I had a blood test for only ag antibody hiv blood test at 6 weeks? and hepatitis b blood test at 6 weeks ? is it enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your question is confusing. Was your HIV blood test for antibody only, or both antigen and antibody (AgAb, i.e. 4th generation test)? Testing for antigen alone (Ag) is rarely done. The AgAb tests are conclusive at 6 weeks and no further testing is needed. If an antibody-ony test, test again at 8 weeks for conclusive result. The hepatitis B virus tests are conclusive at 6 weeks.
