I have done with ELISA HIV test and it came negative. I am taking diane-35 tablets for hormone treatment. Each tablet contains ethinylestradiol(0.035mg) and cyproterone acetate(2 mg) the other ingredients are lactose monohydrate, maize starch, povidone 25, magnesium stearate, sucrose, povidone, macrogol, calcium carbonate precipitate, talc, glycerol. Does this medicine affect the ELISA HIV test???? I have taken this test one year after i had sex with my boy friend. please help me out. i am very much tensed

No, this has no effect whatsoever. I am familiar with Diane and have taken it for many years for  pcos. It effects your estrogen and progesterone and nothing more.
