I had some other infection, so my defense system was very active. Yes it was blood test by Cobas machine. Came out positive (even though I had no risk event). Then confirmatory PCR came out negative, 3 other tests within 3 months after as well negative. According to Czech national AIDS laboratory, up to 85% of blood test coming to them for confirmation are false positive.
Hi @clinicaltips8926, do you know what the sensitivity of the RNA PCR test is at 17 days, or 21 days? The only study I see states at 12 days 50% of HIV positives are detected. So that would be a sensitivity of 50%, like you suggest in video (median time of 12 day). I'm wondering if it's worth waiting another week to test. It's confusing because online there are some confusing statistics (people quoting average sensitivity across all time periods and making it out like that would be the sensitivity at 10 days).
after 38 days I have tested rna pcr test and after 49 days again I have tested pls tell me that it's conclusive... And also same date I have tested combo test both are non detected.... please tell me the truth

Everything doesn’t mean hiv. All the symptoms are symptoms of other things too. In fact, just the stress you are going through can make for a positive Elisa.
The six-month thing is too old and the current guide for detecting HIV is no longer used, this man is quite outdated. According to the CDC, it only takes four weeks for the fourth generation test and three months for the thirteenth. PLEASE UPDATE.
With the 6 months window period he was probably referring to the home kit test, that that you buy at the pharmacy which are not really reliable because according to many doctors point of view the hiv self Test May need to be confirmed with a Lab test in the hospital or any other facility.
Sir how about my case i am from philippines i get tested 3yrs after the exposure and result is non reactive is this result not conclusive or out of date? Pls answer my question
@@Chaplin650 i dont know what kind of test they used her in Philippines they get blood in my vine they used sirens to get blood i guess it is anti body or anti gen
Thanks for your awesome video doctor, it’s super clear.I have one question though. In a case of delayed seroconversion (even though extremely rare), let’s say the patient did not manage to produce detectable antibodies at 3 months, would a 4th generation test still be able to pick up the p24 though? What I’m actually wondering is, is the vanishing of p24 only a result of antibody formation? Would there be a period where p24 already dropped to undetectable while antibodies are still not formed in sufficient level, hence maybe causing a second diagnostic window period?
Is the HIV RNA early detection valid? I took one at 11 days and then 4th generation on week 2/4. Blood finger prick at week 5 - all negative. Should I keep testing?
Can this test kit be used after 2 years since my last HIV test ? would this test kit be still able to detect hiv antibodies after 2 years since my last hiv test ? would it be accurate ? if It reads NEG or POZ after 2 years ? everything i read says use the test kit in window period of 3 months to 90 days but no mention how long afterwards ?
A lot of talkin but he isn’t going over the window period to get tested I noticed. He said 4 week is too soon to get tested, but I don’t think that’s true as symptoms show up 4-6 weeks. And the window period is 18-90 days.
Hi drI'm glad you make a lot of positive videos, I want to tell you my case and I will be very happy if you answer me. I was exposed to the virus from an HIV positive patient with a nosebleed. he is on art. I was tested on day 11 with a PCR test

Hello doctor, I am in very tensed situation as 2 weeks ago I went for routine blood test from aga khan laboratory. The blood drawn was done by vacutainer.

1.Can you explain what a non-reactive result of 0.08 means in the context of an HIV CLIA test taken 1.5 years after exposure? 2.Is this result conclusive for determining my HIV status, or should I consider additional testing? 3.Considering my upcoming marriage, can you advise if this result indicates that I am eligible for marriage without posing a risk to my partner? 4.Are there any other health considerations or tests I should be aware of before getting married? 5.How accurate is the CLIA method in detecting HIV compared to other testing methods? 6.Do I need to undergo any further testing in the future, or can I rely on the results of this CLIA test? 7.I'm feeling fearful and guilty about this situation. Can you provide any guidance or support? 9.Based on my test results and overall health, am I eligible for marriage without putting someone else's life at risk? My result - hiv1/2 & p24 combo ( clia method) - 0.08 non reactive .. I did one test after 1.5 year of exposure is this conclusion or need more test. My parents arranging marriage for me .. am eligible for marriage or not? Please tell sir i don't want to spoil other person life
Hello, I’m so confused, went to test for HIV with my fiancée and my test came out negative, his came out positive, we tested again immediately they both came out negative, then tested the 3rd time and they came out negative again. So am confused. The doctor concluded that we are both negative but still confused
there is always a small chance for false positive, depending on the timeframe and test you did it should be conclusive that at the point of testing he was negative. if you want to be sure test again in 3 months or so
O período de janela para um teste de 4 geração feito num laboratório é de 45 dias. Para os testes rápidos feitos com uma picada no dedo, o resultado já é bem confiável após 6 semanas, mas o melhor é repetir novamente em 3 meses. A formação de anticorpos ocorre entre a 2 e 12 semana depois da exposição. Espero ter ajudado
@@cristianocosta3835 vi que essa janela imunológica que vc citou é de alguns órgãos estrangeiros como a do FDA dos EUA, mas a do Ministério da saude do Brasil em seu site oficial disse que a produção de anticorpos varia de 30 a 60 dias, e agora quem está certo? Ministério da saude do Brasil ou o FDA?
@@brasileiro9732 em Portugal o período de janela são 3 meses. Existe muita controvérsia em relação ao período de janela imunológica. Ainda acredito que o resultado mais confiável seja obtido 3 meses após o comportamento de risco, embora a maioria seja positivo após 4 a 6 semanas.

Hi Dr. Wife at the place of the accident. The man bled a lot. Blood entered my nose. The man is positive for HIV virus but is undetectable on PCR test and is on ART therapy for more than 1 year. I was tested on the tenth day with PCR test HIV and I was negative. These are my tests. PCR HIV 1
I took 2 pcr test since possible exposure on marchb29 2023, my question is what does hiv pcr viral test results less than 20 mean at 6 monts after possible exposure. Ive taken 10 4th generation test in the last 6 months as well all negative but pcr taken at 80 days after and 165 days after both says less than 20, what does that mean
You are not exposed to HIV, in simple words you don’t have HIV. Stop worrying. The window period closes at 90 days after the exposure for most of the tests. The rapid test should be followed after 6 weeks of the exposure or 4th gen test after 14 days to rule out the infection. The last confirmatory test should be followed after 90 days for 3rd gen and 28 days for 4th gen test, to be sure that the previous test is negative (chances for test to turn positive are negligible 0.001% ; exceptions if you have other exposures).
Sir, Hi. My friend has touched the resulting pad of HIV Test Kit with his pricked finger. I have heard that HIV Test kit contains HIV Antigens. Now, my question is 'Can HIV Test kit cause infections if touched with pricked finger in the resulting pad'?
I had an unprotected sex in July 14 2023 and became sick after two weeks,in the following week i went for a hiv test and it was negative that's only 3 weeks. The girl i had the sex with i took her to test and her result came out negative. Why i tool her to test was if mine was in the window period ,hers might be different. But the confusing aspect of the whole thing is i have had an unprotected sex with two different girls again and the two of them became sick exactly after 2 weeks. I don't know what to do. Any advice for me sir. I don't have sex with any girl anymore to avoid jeopardizing their lives.

You are HIV Negative. Please please have protected sex and avoid oral sex. Take PreExposure prophylaxis. If you feel you may have contacted HIV, you can take Post Exposure Prophylaxis to save yourself from a infection WITHIN 72 HOURS
if you took this many tests after 135 days then you should be clear of HIV infection, 100%. There is 0% chance you are positive. The likelihood of all 5 tests being false negatives is so incredibly small, that you are more likely to get struck by lightning instead. Many people feel paranoid about this stuff, and it is normal to a degree, but if you are still unconvinced despite taking 5 different types of tests then I advise you to seek mental health resources. Hypochondria, which is the fear and paranoia of diseases, is a real mental illness that affects many.
@Alex these symptoms could be cause by many different kinds of diseases, whether they are STDs or not. I cannot advise you since I’m not a doctor, but considering your history of negative tests it’s highly unlikely that you have an STD.
I believe I was exposed over 30 days ago and I have been extremely sick for the last week I just got tested yesterday, is there any chance for a false negative?
Be careful out there and always use protection I may as well been exposed 30 days ago to HIV with a womans breastmilk she was a hooker from los angeles Figueroa st name was sugar after I had a sore in lip went away then my throat started hurting now i have swollen tonsils and a little bump inside my cheek maybe some patches in back of throat I'm scared I never went down on her only breast she was lactating and breastmilk can transmit HIV I didn't injest but it went inside my mouth.
@Alex Hello, my brother. I am from Syria. The symptoms you feel are not due to HIV. These symptoms are due to panic attacks and anxiety. I also feel them, my brother.

Being recommended to #MrEbose was a blessing after years of suffering I have finally been cured from hsv 1 & 2 thanks doc you are indeed a Blessing to this generation ...
If I’m worried I have progressed to a chronic infection , because I’ve been infected for years from sexual abuse as a child , and my health has been on the decline in a lot of ways and now that I got a positive rapid test I’m almost certain I got it before 2010, or in 2015 from a sexual assault I experienced as an adult because my health started declining after that and doctors were never able to figure out what it was and just treated me for other things. So I’m almost certain I’ve been infected for quite some years now, and it’s only getting worse and worse and my health and body is getting worse and worse , so which test should I be seeking ??? I’m so confusedddd . When my results come back from the doctor will I be told “you have HIV and this is what stage of it you’re in” or will I have to go in for another test to get checked for more detailed information ??? Will the initial test just confirm that my rapid test was right??? When making an appointment should I tell them I already have a positive rapid saliva test , so they don’t waste my time repeating the same test over again ?? So confusing .
Sorry to hear that. According to your description, your saliva self-test is positive, then you should be infected with HIV, because saliva test is one of the least sensitive methods. If saliva can be tested positive, then your situation is not optimistic. Basically, it can be considered that you are infected with HIV. I Don't know which country you are from but I think if your area has the conditions then you should go to the hospital immediately for re-testing and take antiviral drugs under the guidance of your doctor after confirming the infection If you start treatment now use your current first line drugs If you are lucky, your lifespan may only be 20-30 years shorter than normal people or even have the same lifespan as normal people
It also needs to be emphasized that you'd better go to a large medical center, hospital, etc. for testing to confirm that you are really infected with HIV, and immediately use anti-AIDS drugs under the advice of your doctor because you may have been infected for 7-10 years according to your description. ? If this is the case, your situation is more urgent, you may be on the verge of AIDS or you are already in mild immunodeficiency. In short, go to the hospital quickly and don't give up treatment. Modern drugs are very advanced. Most H HIV-infected people can have no less than 30-50 years lifespan and the future treatment drugs will be more and more advanced I think your experience is tragic The infection is not your fault Don't feel burdened and try to live
Had an exposure on the 21th and 23rd of July, went to the doctor because i was not feeling well then my doctor treated me for STI this was on the 27th of July. He draw blood on my vein took it to the lab and my results came back negative. And also on the 25th i went to the clinic at work and did the finger testing which came back negative. Few days after all these tests i experience i very painful pain just between my waist and lef thigh and ive noticed that i also developed whats called lymph node, the lymph node is not painful but from where the lymph node is going to my side thigh to my bum the muscle pain is just too much. Ive read that early signs of hiv can be lymph node on the groin😢 I will take another test end of August.
I know hiv fear will drive you crazy most probably you will get hiv phobia in first place like every one and i will suggest you to not to panic and wait for 90 days minimum for test
Sir, i did fourth generation cmia combo hiv laboratory test both 32nd day and 55th day after my last exposure.both were negative. Is it conclusive or should i repeat the test?

I took a rapid test at home, and it came out positive and I’m so confused what to do next . There’s no definite info. There’s so many different test options , and when I look up hiv clinics around me it’s so far away and I don’t drive so it’s impossible for me to get there . Trying to go through my health insurance app, it gives me 2 separate options for hiv 1 or hiv2 test which makes things so much more confusing . There’s antigen/antibody tests, some other test that starts with an ‘N’. I just want whichever test is going to confirm it 100% , I don’t even know how to ask for which test I need . Like I have no clue how to make an appointment or where to make an appointment because I just barely got insurance from my employer so I have no healthcare provider , so im so confused on where I can go. Can I go anywhere where my insurance is accepted and ask for an HIV test , it’s so confusing

Hello, I’m so confused, went to test for HIV with my fiancée and my test came out negative, his came out positive, we tested again immediately they both came out negative, then tested the 3rd time and they came out negative again.

there is always a small chance for false positive, depending on the timeframe and test you did it should be conclusive that at the point of testing he was negative. if you want to be sure test again in 3 months or so

O período de janela para um teste de 4 geração feito num laboratório é de 45 dias.

PCR HIV 1
Yes conclusively you are negative for HIV, stop worrying ! You don’t need any more test.
Is 55 days after exposure right time to test
I took 2 pcr test since possible exposure on marchb29 2023, my question is what does hiv pcr viral test results less than 20 mean at 6 monts after possible exposure. Ive taken 10 4th generation test in the last 6 months as well all negative but pcr taken at 80 days after and 165 days after both says less than 20, what does that mean
You are not exposed to HIV, in simple words you don’t have HIV. Stop worrying.
The window period closes at 90 days after the exposure for most of the tests. The rapid test should be followed after 6 weeks of the exposure or 4th gen test after 14 days to rule out the infection. The last confirmatory test should be followed after 90 days for 3rd gen and 28 days for 4th gen test, to be sure that the previous test is negative (chances for test to turn positive are negligible 0.001% ; exceptions if you have other exposures).

The girl i had the sex with i took her to test and her result came out negative.
Why i tool her to test was if mine was in the window period ,hers might be different.
But the confusing aspect of the whole thing is i have had an unprotected sex with two different girls again and the two of them became sick exactly after 2 weeks.
I don't know what to do.

You are HIV Negative. Please please have protected sex and avoid oral sex. Take PreExposure prophylaxis. If you feel you may have contacted HIV, you can take Post Exposure Prophylaxis to save yourself from a infection WITHIN 72 HOURS
if you took this many tests after 135 days then you should be clear of HIV infection, 100%. There is 0% chance you are positive. The likelihood of all 5 tests being false negatives is so incredibly small, that you are more likely to get struck by lightning instead. Many people feel paranoid about this stuff, and it is normal to a degree, but if you are still unconvinced despite taking 5 different types of tests then I advise you to seek mental health resources. Hypochondria, which is the fear and paranoia of diseases, is a real mental illness that affects many.
@Alex these symptoms could be cause by many different kinds of diseases, whether they are STDs or not. I cannot advise you since I’m not a doctor, but considering your history of negative tests it’s highly unlikely that you have an STD.

If I’m worried I have progressed to a chronic infection , because I’ve been infected for years from sexual abuse as a child , and my health has been on the decline in a lot of ways and now that I got a positive rapid test I’m almost certain I got it before 2010, or in 2015 from a sexual assault I experienced as an adult because my health started declining after that and doctors were never able to figure out what it was and just treated me for other things. So I’m almost certain I’ve been infected for quite some years now, and it’s only getting worse and worse and my health and body is getting worse and worse , so which test should I be seeking ??? I’m so confusedddd . When my results come back from the doctor will I be told “you have HIV and this is what stage of it you’re in” or will I have to go in for another test to get checked for more detailed information ??? Will the initial test just confirm that my rapid test was right??? When making an appointment should I tell them I already have a positive rapid saliva test , so they don’t waste my time repeating the same test over again ?? So confusing .
Sorry to hear that. According to your description, your saliva self-test is positive, then you should be infected with HIV, because saliva test is one of the least sensitive methods. If saliva can be tested positive, then your situation is not optimistic. Basically, it can be considered that you are infected with HIV. I Don't know which country you are from but I think if your area has the conditions then you should go to the hospital immediately for re-testing and take antiviral drugs under the guidance of your doctor after confirming the infection If you start treatment now use your current first line drugs If you are lucky, your lifespan may only be 20-30 years shorter than normal people or even have the same lifespan as normal people
It also needs to be emphasized that you'd better go to a large medical center, hospital, etc. for testing to confirm that you are really infected with HIV, and immediately use anti-AIDS drugs under the advice of your doctor because you may have been infected for 7-10 years according to your description. ? If this is the case, your situation is more urgent, you may be on the verge of AIDS or you are already in mild immunodeficiency. In short, go to the hospital quickly and don't give up treatment. Modern drugs are very advanced. Most H HIV-infected people can have no less than 30-50 years lifespan and the future treatment drugs will be more and more advanced I think your experience is tragic The infection is not your fault Don't feel burdened and try to live
Every antibody test would be fine in your situation! But go pls fast to an hospital

I took a rapid test at home, and it came out positive and I’m so confused what to do next . There’s no definite info. There’s so many different test options , and when I look up hiv clinics around me it’s so far away and I don’t drive so it’s impossible for me to get there . Trying to go through my health insurance app, it gives me 2 separate options for hiv 1 or hiv2 test which makes things so much more confusing . There’s antigen/antibody tests, some other test that starts with an ‘N’. I just want whichever test is going to confirm it 100% , I don’t even know how to ask for which test I need . Like I have no clue how to make an appointment or where to make an appointment because I just barely got insurance from my employer so I have no healthcare provider , so im so confused on where I can go. Can I go anywhere where my insurance is accepted and ask for an HIV test , it’s so confusing
