These tests do not cover the window period. If you really have HIV related symptoms, better would be to have personal consultation. In the meanwhile take a private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly.

lybrate-user, you are not fully safe. PCR should have been done after 2 weeks. For tridot window period is 90 days. Pl do HIV HBsAg and VDRL tests after 90 days of exposure. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly. I am.in Amravati for two days. 18-19 June.in case if you want to consult me in person.

Elisa 7th week not conclusive. But with several other tests being negative, you are HIV free. But also think of other STDs. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what else is required to be done.

1. Western Blot is never done as a screening test for HIV. You should get a 4th generation Ag/Ab test at this point and the results should be almost confirmatory. 2. Metallic taste over tongue may be because of certain medications you may be taking. Chewing on cloves/cardamom/salty toffees often help get over the bad taste. May need to look at your prescribed medications and tests to point out the real issue. Happy to provide further help over private consult.

You don't have hiv. But it seems you have not bothered to check other STDs. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and tell you what steps should be taken. Don't waste time, you have wasted enough.

Hi doc, am mad to suck cock at least once and decided to do with online friend. But I fear about std's I have asked him for std result before doing that. He said he already tested for hiv one month back on job purpose and resulted as negative and healthy am I good to proceed with him with this result. Is hiv test includes all std tests or should I ask him to test std test separately. Please advise.

HIV is one of the 20 STDs. HIV negative doesn't mean other STDs negative. You are surely at risk. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly.

A women is HIV positively. She wants to give birth to her child. What is the condition for her baby is non HIV positive.
If the HIV +ve mother is treated with ART (ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY) from the date she conceived, & the baby receives NEVIRAPINE syears for 4 2 days, the risk of transmission is reduced from (30%-45%) to 2%(TWO).
