If you test negative 3-6 months after you think you were exposed to hiv and if there is no chance you were exposed to hiv since then, you do not have hiv. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.

Antigen/antibody test done with blood from a finger stick can usually detect hiv 18 to 90 days after exposure. An antigen/antibody lab test using blood from a vein can usually detect hiv 18 to 45 days after exposure. A nucleic acid test (nat) can usually detect hiv 10 to 33 days after exposure.

Combo test is pretty accurate after 2 -3 weeks of exposure.
Though we do recommend a test repeat after 3 months as most antibody form after 3 months but it is false to say no test can detect hiv before 3 months.
It your initial day 3 and 1 month test is negative there are very less chance of 3 month test being positive.
Initial symptoms of hiv are flu like illness and they are non specific

The time it takes for the tpha to turn negative after treatment with penicillin can vary depending on several factors, such as the stage of the infection, the severity of the disease, and the individual's immune response. In general, after treatment with penicillin, the tpha test can become negative as early as one week after treatment in early syphilis cases. However, in more advanced stages of syphilis, it may take several months or more.

Hello-
untreated gonorrhea can cause serious and permanent health problems in both women and men. In women, gonorrhea can spread into the uterus or fallopian tubes and cause pelvic inflammatory disease (pid). The symptoms may be quite mild or can be very severe and can include abdominal pain and fever.

This should be post exposure prophylaxis treatment.
Though it could be something else also.
Would need photo to be sjre
as initial test is not confirmatory. It could be false negative.
I would advice test again after 3 weeks which would decide whether to stop pep.
Also a final confirmatory test after 3 months of exposure
do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment or if you still have some doubts you want to clear.
