How many days after exposure is the HIV Tridot rapid antibody test considered conclusive? Is the Tridot test a reliable test?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The HIV Tridot rapid antibody test is reliable after 90 days (12 weeks) post exposure for a conclusive result, as it detects antibodies that take time to develop. Testing earlier may miss infections. For early detection, an HIV RNA PCR test can be done after 14 days. If negative at 90 days with Tridot, it is considered conclusive. Always practice safe sex and consult your doctor if worried about exposure.

View allAfter potential HIV exposure, I have done multiple HIV tests over 9 months, and all results were negative. My reports for the past three months are as follows 0.2 s/co, 0.2 s/co, and Antibody + p24 antigen test by ECL method is 0.2 s/co. Do I need to undergo any further HIV testing, or are these results conclusive?

Are rapid HIV tests conclusive after 90 days?
Answered by Apollo Doctors
I had protected sex with a woman using two condoms at the same time for about 10 minutes. Later, I read online that using two condoms together is not recommended, and I became worried. I took three HIV tests (rapid and ELISA) at around 30 days after the encounter, and all came back negative. Do I need to get tested again, or is it not necessary?
