3 months has been the official,conclusive hiv window period for the last 7 years. The 6 month window period is OUTDATED and WRONG.

The only time 6 months comes into the mix is if you would happen to be on Chemo, taking antirejection drugs for an organ transplant or you're a chronic IV drug abuser. Then and only then may it take longer than 3 months.

There are plenty of doctors who will say to test out to 6 months and it is those doctors that are confusing the hell out of people and creating hiv related anxiety.Any internet site that says 6 months for everyone needs to update their site.Even 3 months is considered conservative with todays modern testing avaliable.

i took all these tests
1. 4 weeks antibody
2. 6 weeks antibody and pcr
3. 8 weeks antibody and pcr
4. 11 weeks antibody
