HCV Window Period
I've tested HCV at week 12 post exposure, should I test again and when?
Hi there, Can-do-man has given you excellent advice, if I were you I would read the link he provided and get retested at 6 months
Good luck

How soon after exposure to HCV can anti-HCV be detected?
HCV infection can be detected by anti-HCV screening tests (enzyme immunoassay) 4–10 weeks after infection. Anti-HCV can be detected in >97% of persons by 6 months after exposure.
