It's a good step that you've undergone an hiv rna pcr test for early detection after a potential exposure. Typically, these tests are designed to detect both hiv-1 and hiv-2, unless specified otherwise. An undetected result after 12 days is a positive sign, but it's important to consider a few factors. 1. Hiv types: the hiv rna pcr test is generally inclusive of both hiv-1 and hiv-2, covering the most common types of the virus. However, the prevalence of hiv-2 is lower than hiv-1, especially outside specific regions like west africa. 2. Window period: the term "window period" refers to the time it takes for the virus to be detectable in the blood. While rna pcr tests are highly sensitive, there is still a window period. Early testing is encouraging, but follow-up testing may be recommended to ensure accuracy. 3. Regional considerations: if you haven't been in regions where hiv-2 is more prevalent, the likelihood of being infected with hiv-2 is generally lower. Still, you may opt for specialized test which target hiv-2. To provide more accurate guidance, it would be beneficial to review the actual test report. I encourage you to share the report image in a private chat within the platform. This will allow for a more detailed discussion and personalized advice based on your specific situation. Regular follow-ups and ongoing communication contribute significantly to the accurate interpretation of hiv test results and overall health management.

A positive or negative pcr test result may correctly reflect the presence or absence of genetic material in the submitted sample but may not correctly reflect the infection status.

You can ask for 4th generation ELISA or HIV RNA PCR after 3-4 weeks of exposure. 13 days is little too early for that test to pick up HIV. Best wishes.
