Since you couldn't have been HIV infected by the exposure you describe, these questions are irrelevant to your health, and I don't have time to respond to questions that are irrelevant to particular persons' situations. The provider who did your HIV test can answer these questions; or call your local health department; or feel free to post your questions on the HIV Support forum.
Dear Doctor,
Thank you for your respond and i have read most of the Q&A in this forum and for knowledge i have few question after browsing this forum,
1. What make late soroconvertion ? patient health ? The virus itself or anyother factor?
2. our lab here are using 3rd generation of ELISA for HIV testing, is this consider as modern test kit and the 6 week window period is still applicable for the test kit ?
3. When HIV patient develope symptom, is that mean the HIV antibody is detectable?
4. Since vagina fluid transmitte HIV why there is no risk for the penis vagina rubbing thing when the vagina fluid present?
I feel so sorry if doctor find this questions sound useless if possible please answer and help. I am 34 years old man with a very conservative sex life and in our place hardly can find more information about hiv and this is the first time in my life that have this experience and really freak me out. Thank you very much.
Sigh. You haven't done your homework: people who post questions on this forum are asked to read the forum first. The identical questions have been asked and answered repeatedly. Use the search link to look for 'HIV transmission risk' and 'time to positive HIV test'; or just look at any 10-15 questions chosen at random and you'll probably find the answers.
1) Nobody in the world ever got HIV from the kind of exposure you describe.
2) 5 weeks is plenty of time, especially when somebody didn't need testing at all, like you. But I always tell nervous people to get tested later if it will help them get over their anxieties.
No follow-up questions or discussion. I won't have anything more to say.
