Health Query

Sir I had unprotected oral sex 4 months back. I do not know her hiv status I went for a hiv test after 45 days it came negative .22 by CIMA method and now after 125 days of my possible exposure I went for a test it came .24 by CIMA method. My questions are:- 1) why the index ratio in my results changed does it means I can turn positive? 2) when is hiv test is conclusive? 3) am I free from hiv?

1. Ratio does not matter till it below reference range 2 Your report is conclusive after 6 month. If you want to confirm now then go for HIV 1 Proviral DNA qualitative test 3. At present no one can say you are free or not free.
