Hello sir. Good to know that your hiv is under control. You will need to continue to take art as long as you live, as of now. In future if any cure is found that will be a game changer. There are better options than viraday now. As long as your vl is undetectable and cd4 is in the normal range the ois remain under check and also non oi conditions. However aids has 4 stages depending upon s/s. It will be better if you consult an hiv Dr. of your choice to know more details, please. Thanks.

Hello sir I had sex with a sex worker in massage parlour with protection on but now I am afraid of hiv transmission and infections since some of the journals said hiv can pass through condoms as well and it's not effective and protective in nature .kindly help me what to do.

Well yes new studies have shown that condom doesn't protect against hiv, soo if the person is hiv positive then you have a higher risk of having hiv infection, do test after 90 days ,visit a virologist that will be better for u, don't be anxious there is treatment available now so nothing to worry about it,

As per cdc guidelines, the window period of hiv infection is 18-45 days for the test performed on serum/plasma. The window period of hiv tri dot is 30-60 days & the window period of hcv is 8 to 11 weeks. Hiv tri dot & hcv tri dot are 99% accurate within the defined window period.

Hiv cannot live outside the body for more than a few minutes even in optimum conditions. Once blood is dried ,even if it becomes wet again ,hiv will not become infectious again.

Hello sir. From test results you are not infected with hiv. No need for any further tests. I add here, in public interest, that there is no need to do hiv dna proviral test as 4 th gen combo test is highly sensitive and specific. Thanks.

Is there 2 different hiv rna test, 1 for hiv1 and another for hiv 2. What if I had a exposure and I tested undetected for hiv 1 rna pcr test after 12 days. Is there a chance I am infected with hiv 2 and my test did not pick up.

It's a good step that you've undergone an hiv rna pcr test for early detection after a potential exposure. Typically, these tests are designed to detect both hiv-1 and hiv-2, unless specified otherwise. An undetected result after 12 days is a positive sign, but it's important to consider a few factors. 1. Hiv types: the hiv rna pcr test is generally inclusive of both hiv-1 and hiv-2, covering the most common types of the virus. However, the prevalence of hiv-2 is lower than hiv-1, especially outside specific regions like west africa. 2. Window period: the term "window period" refers to the time it takes for the virus to be detectable in the blood. While rna pcr tests are highly sensitive, there is still a window period. Early testing is encouraging, but follow-up testing may be recommended to ensure accuracy. 3. Regional considerations: if you haven't been in regions where hiv-2 is more prevalent, the likelihood of being infected with hiv-2 is generally lower. Still, you may opt for specialized test which target hiv-2. To provide more accurate guidance, it would be beneficial to review the actual test report. I encourage you to share the report image in a private chat within the platform. This will allow for a more detailed discussion and personalized advice based on your specific situation. Regular follow-ups and ongoing communication contribute significantly to the accurate interpretation of hiv test results and overall health management.

Received a hand job from a massage using glove, after massage got to know she had cut on her thumb she said it was a day old there was no flowing blood when I saw, does this pose any risk if the glove was torn and if any blood from wound come in contact with penis. Any hiv risk?

Well for this one have to have direct blood contact, as you don't have any open wound and only hand job was there also she hadn't any blood oozing wound that means your not affected by hiv, so don't worry.
