What type of test to take ?
I made an appointment to the rapid Hiv center near me ... they asked if I wanted to take conventional Hiv test or a rapid test ... I don’t know the difference . My exposure has been only a month ago . What test will be the most efficient ?
can you provide the details of your encounter? oral, vaginal, anal? condom?

Vaginal unprotected heterosexual encounter AA male . He does not inject drugs and is not homosexual
Thanks. well since your encounter is definitely a way HIV is transmitted, the above info is correct. 4th Gen duo test is considered conclusive at 28 days. I only asked the encounter details since many people take tests for absolute no reason.
