Conversion period - 6, 8, 12 weeks

[raycharlesfreak]

I am aware that the accepted conclusive conversion period on this forum is three months.  And that there has been some alluding to the six and eight week window for testing which is still apparently in the "inconclusive" zone for testing, although the doctor forum seems to advocate the great un-likelyhood of a change from a neg result to pos at twelve weeks.  

My question is simply is there anyone on this forum who has statistics that refute that stance?  

Thanks for your input.

i'm sorry for misreading it, but listen what joggen said , he knows better.

Oh..thanks by the way.  That's what I was inclined to believe.

Ye.. one can obsess easily re HIV.  

Humbleman86:  that word is "protracted" and I left out the word "unprotected" by mistake.

[humbleman86]

i'm not an expert, but your case is not risky , it was protected , therefore and from reading semilar answers were given,by experts in this forum such as teak ,joggen,lizze,kumar... to other people who had protected sex , "you never had an exposure , so no need for testing , but you did tested at 8 weeks , which is good and hope is reassuring for you.

At 8 weeks the tests are virtually 100% accurate. Expect your 12 week test to be negative. Trust the doctors and stop looking for information that will just fuel your anxiety.

I appreciate your response.   My exposure is hetero with unknown status female.   Vigorous protracted oral/vaginal sex.  She is accessible and claims neg status, but you never know.

Yeah..posted above as I have tested neg at the 8th week.
