Hi doctor, From July to Sept I had protected sex 3 times with sex worker.In one case I had mouth kissing. The condom didn't break nor did I ejaculate .I got an hiv test done after 6 weeks post 1 encounter n result was non reactive. Will I be affected by aids. If we have protected sex where there's no exchange of blood or semen do we still get hiv from 3 encounters where condom was properly used and there's no failure. From past 5 days m suffering from headache and loose motion are these signs of aids Pls give me correct advice. Are tests done 6 weeks after exposure conclusive.

Hello- It seems that your headache and loose motions can be due to some other reasons, and surely not HIV. The tests are conclusive.

Different tests have different times at which they are conclusive. Antibody tests are usually accurate between 6-12 weeks with the 12 week mark making it ?conclusive? (although a positive result would be detected in most 95% people after 28 days). The fourth generation antibody and antigen tests will detect 95% of infections at 28 days and are conclusive after 90 days. Your headache AND loose motions is definitly not due to hiv.
