What is the difference between a HIV "NEGATIVE" result and "N/A" Does being negative means , there is a possibility of getting infected sometime in the future? Is it the same for men as well?

Hello there. I can understand your concern.  HIV negative means you are not javing HIV now. And it doesn't mean one can't get it in future ever. If there is exposure in the future, then one can get it. Yes its the same for males and females. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
