Question

I've been really anxious since I had sex about a month ago. I did an HIV ELISA test, and it came back nonreactive. If I decide to get tested again after three months, what are the chances that the results will be the same? Or could they change? I'm just trying to figure out what to expect.

Question

I'm a bit worried about a scratch I got from a dog about two days ago. I couldn't get a rabies shot immediately, and I'm planning to get it soon, but it's been over 48 hours now. Will the vaccine still be effective if I get it within 72 hours, or is it too late to prevent rabies?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my HIV test results. They came back non-reactive after 140 days, but I'm wondering if that's conclusive. Is there a specific test that's considered the best for detecting HIV? Also, could you help me understand the window period for HIV detection?
