Hi Dr, I had a protected sex before 3 months, I had conducted a Antibody test for HIV 1 and 2 ,p 24 ANTIGEN test last week and result came as non reactive. Now some red boils have appeared all around my armpits (both. Is this related to HIV? Is there any chance that I will be tested positive later (after six months or so)? Should I be tested again after some time? I had read that for certain person a negative result after 3 months have been positive after 6 months.

Once these tests are negative at or after 90 days, you are HIV negative. Possibilities of other STDs can not be ruled out. It is better, you please take a private consult with audio-video chat and then you can send me pics of the skin lesions. We'll talk thereafter. Do not worry, I'll solve your health concerns to your fullest satisfaction.

Normally the reports at 90th day is also considered fine but we prefer Final confirmation after repeating the test again after 180th day of exposure. Thanks.
