No. That is one of the treatment. Combination of three drugs. But that is old one and number if new and better drugs are now available. Please take private consultation with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and tell you what is the best way forward. Ideally personal consultation is better and you are not far from mumbai.

You are a fit and essential case for personal consultation. The least you can finish please take private consultation with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and tell you what is the best way forward. Also think of other stds. Many are more transmissible than hiv.

Hello-
the only 100% effective way to prevent sexual transmission of hiv and stds is through abstinence - avoiding all vaginal, anal and oral sex. Using a latex male condom or a female condom can greatly reduce, but not entirely eliminate, the risk of hiv and std transmission.

I understand that you are feeling anxious and scared about the possibility of contracting hiv after your sexual encounter.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
If there are squamous epithelial cells in your urine, it may mean your sample was contaminated. This means that the sample contains cells from another part of the body. This can happen if you do not clean your genital area well enough when collecting your urine sample with the clean catch method.

Antibody tests can usually detect hiv 23 to 90 days after exposure. Most rapid tests and self-tests are antibody tests. A rapid antigen/antibody test done with blood from a finger stick can usually detect hiv 18 to 90 days after exposure.
