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.

If you had a non-reactive result on an HIV ELISA test one month after having sex, it is a good sign. However, it is recommended to get tested again after 3 months for a more conclusive result. The result after 3 months may still be non-reactive, but it is important to confirm with another test to be sure.
