So should i wait 5 big days and retest, whats the likley hood off testing poitive then or will i be easting 50 dollars. I was always told bu health care providers is that the window period covers the entire popualation People that generally take three mths to show poz are sick peoplw with transplants, Chemo, Ex.. It generally takes 25 days to produce enough antibodys to show pos on a antibidy test thats why they now say test out to 6 weeks (Aid Alliance Of NC)(Director of ID UNC) But i elected to test on the 11 week to be sure
A negative result with this test does not mean that you are definitely not infected with HIV, particularly when exposure may have been within the previous 3 months.
