but I DON'T KNOW if I was infected with the first guy(I don't know his hiv status) because I'm still waiting the 3 months mark to do the hiv test, but I had unprotected sex with someone hiv negative more than 5 times before the 3 months mark and this can delay my seroconversion, right?

This thread is closed.  You can not be re-infected with HIV if you already have it.

OK let's not get nasty with each other.

If I am understanding this, you can't "reinfect" yourself with something you already have.  I can't give myself another cold at the same time I have one. If I gave my partner a cold, I can't get the same cold while I still have it.

So if you are infected, and you infect your partner, your partner can't reinfect you with the same thing you already have.

This thread is now closed.

correction : no teak, I don't know if I'm infected or not because the 3 months are not complete to do the HIV test. Even if I am, the test would come false negative because I'm still on my window period but I still can infect my partner even during seroconversion and he can reinfect me and my test can come false negative after the 3 months because of that

Understand?

can't infect myself but my partner can reinfect me with the viruis that i infected him during the seroconversion and our tests will always come false negative

What? If you were infected and had unprotected sex with your partner. Guess what you were already infected in the first place. What was your possible exposure?

sorry if you guys still don't understand the question. Use your brain and think beyond. It's the same thing to ask; if I have unprotected sex with my HIV negative partner more than 5 times while I'm waiting the 3 months to have my hiv test because I had unprotected sex with some one before my partner that I don't know his hiv status would this delay my seroconversion?( Once I can be infected but my HIV test can be negative because I didn't wait the 3 months and I probably could infect my partner and he could reinfect me and our hiv tests would come always negative.

Teak, did you understand my question?

Let me put this way Lizzie: I had unprotected sex with someone that I don't know his HIV status. I was waiting the 3 months to do my hiv test but before the 3 months I hurt my finger and it started to bleed and I suck my own blood to stop the bleeding from this incident. Let's assume the person is HIV positive and infected me and because I suck my infected blood it would reinfect me again and I would have to restart my window period?

[danilonyc]

yes or no? it's very simple to say: yes I do have to restart my window period or no, i do not need to restart it

[LIZZIE LOU]

well no...your question really doesnt make sense.
