Hi doctor, I had sex with a sex worker before 42 days. We used a condom, but the condom broke during the sex. From that day, my tension has started. I am a psychiatry patient taking medicine for anxiety and stress for a long time. I have attached the test reports. Please see my attached report and advise. Am I 100 % risk-free from HIV? The first report was done after 25 days of exposure and the second report was done after 37 days of exposure.
Hi. HIV infection usually has a window period of one to three months. Until that time, your test results will be a false negative. Although your reports are negative now (attachment removed to protect patient identity) which is an assuring thing, we advise you retest at 12 weeks to confirm the same. Also, kindly check HBsAg (hepatitis B virus surface antigen), VDRL (venereal disease research laboratory), and anti-HCV (antibodies against hepatitis C virus).
