Mrsdimca:
I had unprotected sex 3 months and two weeks ago. I ran a test in 2 different places yesterday was negative. But some are saying it is 6 months one can get accurate result.

I'm curious, because I'm still restless despite the fact I came out negative in two different places that I ran the tests.


help out, I need a wider coverage.. .

I'll try to clarify some issues on this thread.
1. HIV can take as much as few years before you could have the symptoms. It all depends on your immune system and everyone does have a unique immune system.
2. HIV can not present with symptom in less than 2 weeks.
3. Depending on the test used, the window period can vary as long as 6 months before the test becomes positive.
4. If you contracted the virus already, after 72 hours has elapsed there is absolutely nothing that can be done for you. Whether it takes 3 months or 6 months you will eventually become positive on the test.
5. HIV is manageable if diagnosis is made on time and the quality of life would not be affected.
6. On becoming positive, an increase in unprotected sex as a payback to the society (revenge mission) could result in your HIV strain evolving and becoming resistant to the anti retroviral drugs that was working.

Finally, there is no need for panic, cos if you're positive there is nothing you can do to change your status.
Why people still get involved in unprotected sex with strangers baffles me, that was how one got pregnant and was looking for how to remove the baby, and I was pitying her cos she might also have contacted HIV without knowing.
Abstinence and faithfulness to your spouse remains the best option, to avoid stories that touch.

Famocious:
HIV screening with ELISA or PCR will give you accurate result within 4-6weeks after exposure to HIV. This is what most labs use in Nigeria. It test the antibody our body develop against the virus. It is very simple to use and available at point of care.

The other array of tests that can show earlier evidence of infection within 1 to 2 weeks are the tests against the HIV viral particles, though not widely available.
They are test for P24 viral protein and HIV Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT).

You can go to Pathcare or Mecure Lab, I'm sure you will get a reliable test.
All the best.

i ran the Elisa test yesterday as well, it was negative

That is still a good news. There is 97% chance that you don't have HIV infection.

You can repeat the test in 2 months time, that will clear all your doubt.

Congrats..

What are the symptoms

I was going to say fever, rashes, loss of weight, diarrhea, coughing...

...but under this gofment the symptoms are similar to ordinary wahala.

For real, tho. The most obvious symptoms are swollen lymph nodes.

It might not start to show face until a year or more. HIV is not gonorrhea.

Truth is, at the risk of sounding like a broken record you can always refrain from giving advice if you've got nothing to say! Do you know the number of people with HIV who are unaware of their status? At least she's trying to do the right thing and know her status so as to start treatment. Even if she is to be HIV positive, is killing herself the best option? Should we kill all HIV positive people? If that was to be an option, you'd be surprised at the number of people that will be dead!

No need to worry at all; if after 3 months and you are still negative, then you are clear.
You can go and sin no more.

I am concerned because her reckless action put another man like you life's in danger.Do you know if the man is somewhere working himself to death to make this woman happy ,oblivious of this fact.Women have never taught you a lesson in this life,i suppose.I imagine you would be happy if it were your wife and she transmits same to you with a possibility of turning your children into orphans.Trump is trying to cut off most of the aid programs america gives to other countries so how many africans are going to afford anti retroviral drugs after then

But I thought someone could fight HiV at early stage with PREP?

Stop worrying the chances of false negative results twice are very low. Stop having unprotected sex so you can keep your mind at ease. Good luck to you.

I hate this advise.

How can a Nigerian immune system hold HIV for years when malaria dey deal with us in days?

What do we eat in this hard economy that can make our immune system too strong to hold HIV for years?

just stop taking unnecessary risk for 5mins-1hr enjoyment. Stick to one partner and stop opening your panties at any slight provocation. Was in your shoes and God helped me, he can do same for you just accept him as your Lord and saviour
