As a result of possible exposure, I need to get an HIV test done. The exposure happened on March 7 2018. Someone please let me know when should I get tested to have an unambiguous result and what sort of tests must be done. Also please let me know what are the treatment options,in case I have contracted an HIV infection. Thanks in advance.

Hi dear a Tri-dot test detects both HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) p24 antigen and antibody and is equally effective as compared to HIV fourth generation ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) testing. Usually, these tests are positive within 2 to 6 weeks after getting infected. If you will get tested with NAT (nucleic acid test) or western blot test, then it can detect HIV much earlier. But, it is a costly test.So, if you have any positive suspicious history of HIV, then after six to eight week ELISA fourth generation testing or tri-dot rapid testing can be done.
You can easily take an online consultation for further treatment guidance
HELLO,
BEST IS ART CENTER A DEPARTMENT UNDER MEDICINE. JUST ASK ABOUT THAT YOU WANT TO TEST FOR HIV. THEY WILL SEND IN ICTC CENTER. TEST RESULTS AFTER FOUR HOURS OR NEXT DAY. THE TEST IS VERY AUTHENTIC N TRUE. IF IT'S NEGATIVE NO PROBLEM. IF POSITIVE THEY WILL ENROLLED U N CONTINUE TREATMENT.
PRIVACY IS WELL MAINTAIN. OK.
You can get tested for HIV at any time comfortable to you. It has no bearing on the result.
Treatment options in Homoeopathy are very viable. The symptoms can be managed very well and immunity raised too. But once contracted, HIV cannot be reverted back.
All the best!
