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.
