Hello... Window period for HIV is three to four weeks .. Antibody testing at 4 weeks can give you a good indication of your HIV status, but test at 12 weeks after the exposure to be considered HIV negative...don't involve in risk behavior... Use barrier contraceptives while having sexular intercourse....
