4th Generation window
Hey all, first of all : i tried to find answers to this but i found only old ones and with different situations. anyway:
is there any point to do 4th generation hiv test (ag/ab) after 10 days from the event? my plan was to do 10 days after to calm my stress and then 25 days after but i see many claim 10 days window worth almost to nothing. i will be glad if somone here could guide me? thanks.

Condoms are the most effective way to prevent HIV and STDs.
PrEP is used by people with high risk to prevent HIV infection.
Can I get HIV from surfaces, like toilet seats?
Can you get HIV from casual contact, like hugging?
Frequency of HIV testing depends on your risk.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) may help prevent HIV infection.
Wait at least a month post-event (or post-PEP) before testing. Otherwise, you're really not getting much from the test except slight peace of mind - but it won't be conclusive.
