I'm feeling a bit anxious and was wondering, is getting an HIV test after 75 days considered conclusive? Could you help clear this up for me, doctor?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, an HIV test conducted 75 days after potential exposure is usually conclusive, and if your result is negative, it is a strong indication that you do not have HIV. However, if you are still concerned, it may be a good idea to follow up with your healthcare provider for confirmation and peace of mind.

View allI recently got tested at Lal Path Labs and found out that both Chlamydia and Herpes came back reactive. I'm unmarried and now I'm confused about whether I should get married or not. Can these diseases be cured? What could happen if these are passed on to a female partner? I'm taking homeopathic medicines right now. I'm really worried about this whole situation.
Your son is due for the IPV and Hib vaccines, but unfortunately, they're not available right now. Don't worry, I've got some advice to help you navigate this situation. Firstly, *delayed vaccination is not ideal, but it's not the end of the world either*. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that kids receive the Hib vaccine at 12-15 months, and the IPV vaccine at 12-18 months . Since your son is already 2 weeks overdue, *you should consult with your doctor to determine the best course of action*. They may recommend alternative vaccination schedules or provide guidance on when the vaccines are likely to become available again. In the meantime, *make sure your son is up-to-date on all other recommended vaccinations*. This will help protect him from other serious diseases. Lastly, *don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor or a vaccination specialist for further guidance*. They can provide personalized advice and help you make informed decisions about your son's vaccination schedule.

So, I got this tattoo and I'm worried about the risk of infection. I went for an HIV test on the 12th day after exposure, using the HIV 12 ELISA method, and the result was negative, with a score of 0.415 SCo. Then, on the 32nd day, I took an HIV test again, which was the HIV 12 p24 Combo test with CMIA, and it came back non-reactive at 0.1. How confident can I be in these results?
