    After a human is infected with HIV, it generally takes 2-12 weeks, and an average of about 45 days for HIV antibodies to be detected in the blood. Because the period between HIV infection and the production of antibodies by the body is not detectable for HIV antibodies, it is called the window period. Although HIV antibodies are not detectable during the window period, HIV is already present in the body, so the window period is also contagious.

    The period of time from being infected with HIV to the production of HIV antibodies in the body is called the window period. During the window period, blood tests of HIV-infected people do not detect HIV antibodies, and the results are negative. The length of the window period varies from 2 weeks to 8 weeks, usually 8 weeks, and only a few people have a window period of 3-6 months (but this chance is less than 1 in 10,000).

    The gold standard test strip now provided is the double antigen sandwich method, which can be detected after 6 days of infection at the shortest, and the window period of most samples is within 8 weeks, and the vast majority of people can be detected after 2 months, if the high-risk behavior is still undetectable after 2 months, there is basically no possibility of infection.

    Testing can be started after 2 weeks of high risk in order to gradually release pressure.

    6 weeks is cloudy to rest assured, and a very small number of people need 3 months. It is recommended to do a follow-up after 3 months!

    Theoretically, 6 weeks of yin is no problem, 3 months of re-examination is just to rest assured, there are very few positive, you can rest assured, or it is recommended to re-examine it in three months.

    The purpose of HIV testing for pregnant mothers is to reconfirm the reaction of the pregnant woman to the first trimester and to check whether the pregnant woman has or has been infected. The examination allows the doctor to give adequate care to the woman during delivery. But,How long does it take for an HIV test to give results?

    Let's question it. Next, let me take you to find out.

    When HIV enters the body, the body's immune system can produce antibodies to HIV. Detection of HIV antibodies in the blood is currently the most commonly used laboratory method to confirm HIV infection, known as serological testing. Generally, there are two steps, first a primary screening test, and if the result is positive, then a confirmatory test, and a positive test can be used to diagnose HIV infection.

    HIV antibody tests are done during pregnancy to confirm whether a pregnant woman is infected with HIV. If infected with HIV, the result is positive for HIV antibodies, and normal pregnant women are negative for HIV antibodies. If a pregnant woman is infected with HIV, it can be transmitted from the placenta to the fetus or through the soft birth canal during delivery.

    HIV testing during pregnancy can provide a basis for early prevention and early development of pregnant women, improve the quality of life of pregnant women during pregnancy, and improve the health level of children. AIDS, the literal name for "acquired immunodeficiency syndrome", is a serious immunodeficiency disorder caused by the HIV virus.

    Mother-to-child transmission is one of the main routes of HIV transmission, and HIV is transmitted to the fetus through the placenta, causing HIV infection in newborns. The purpose of the re-examination is to reconfirm the reaction of the pregnant woman to the first trimester and to check whether the pregnant woman has or is infected. The examination allows the doctor to give adequate care to the woman during delivery.

    HIV testing is divided into two steps: initial screening and confirmation. The primary screening enzyme immunoassay takes about two to three hours, and if the primary screening test is performed with a rapid reagent, the results can be obtained in less than half an hour. If the initial screening test result is positive, further retesting and confirmation are required, and the time for confirmatory testing is one to two days.

    However, the above is only the time of the test itself, and the specific operation also needs to consider the specimen transportation time and the work arrangement of each laboratory, and the situation of each laboratory is different, and it is difficult to have a unified standard. In traditional testing, the collected samples are sent to a central laboratory for testing, which may require the pregnant woman to come back a week or more later to see the results.

    The window period is two to three months, basically 42 days negative is no problem, if you are afraid of HIV, please re-test directly in three months.

    Q: How long does it take to get rid of HIV completely?

    Actually, it's about AIDS.

    It is a misconception that the time of elimination of AIDS is not directly related to what kind of test is used or what method of testing is used. HIV testing is only related to the window period, and it can be detected as long as the window period has passed.

    Q: What is the AIDS window period?

    According to Cao Yunzhen, director of the Clinical Virus Research Office of the Center for AIDS Prevention and Control of the Ministry of Health and the highest institution for HIV/AIDS prevention and control in China, the latest research results show that the window period is 2-6 weeks. There are also some individuals who have to wait until 3 months.

    Q: What kind of people should be tested after three months?

    For example, for people with weakened immunity, occupational exposure, or people taking blocking drugs, their window period may take up to 3 months to be eliminated. However, this does not conflict with the 6-week theory, and the majority of people cannot be ignored because of very few cases, so a negative test at 6 weeks for the general population is enough to show the problem, and there is no need to wait until 3 months to get tested.

    The best time is definitely three months, but 42 days of negative will not be positive.

    The best time for HIV testing is 6 weeks, because at this time the virus antibody peaks, but 4 weeks can also be tested with the gold label method, and the current commercially available test strips are very sensitive, if the 4th generation enzyme immunoassay is used, then it can be detected in 2 weeks, and it can be ruled out in 3 weeks. Because the 4th generation reagent is antigen and antibody detection at the same time. I hope my answer will help you!

    It usually takes 2 to 4 weeks after high-risk behaviors to detect HIV antibodies. HIV antibodies can be detected from 2 weeks after high-risk behaviors, which means that HIV antibody testing is suitable after 2 weeks. The further time passes, the higher the accuracy of the detection; The vast majority of people infected with HIV are able to produce enough antibodies after 4 weeks.

    The detection time is different for each person, but as long as the window period is calculated, the accuracy of the test can be guaranteed. During the window period, the amount of HIV in the infected person's body will reach a peak, which is extremely contagious. The acute infection period also occurs during this time.

    At present, the internationally recognized window period is 3 months, but with the progress of inspection methods, the window period has been greatly shortened, and the test can be carried out in 6 weeks. The window period should be calculated from the date of the high-risk behavior, if you have a high-risk behavior on the 1st of this month, you can be tested after 6 weeks. In general, the initial test can be done in 4 weeks.

    The re-examination after 6 weeks of testing is negative can be ruled out.

    (1) It is not possible to detect whether or not you are infected immediately after being infected with HIV, and there is a window period for testing, that is, a period of time from the time the HIV virus infects the human body to the time when antibodies or nucleic acids can be detected in the blood.

    The window period for antibody testing is generally 4-12 weeks, and the window period for nucleic acid testing is 1-4 weeks.

    2) Currently, the most commonly used test method is antibody testing, and it is recommended to detect antibodies 4 weeks after high-risk behaviors, and antibodies can be detected in most infected people at 4 weeks.

    If the result is negative in 4 weeks, you can wait until 8 or 12 weeks to get tested.

    In general, HIV infection can be ruled out if there are no recurrence of high-risk behaviors and no antibodies are detected within 12 weeks.

    3) It is important to note that:

    The window period "Although there are no detectable antibodies, it is possible that the viral nucleic acid has already replicated in the body and is also infectious." Therefore, during this time, use a condom to protect your partner from infection.

    4) If you have had high-risk behaviors in the past and have not been tested, you should be tested as soon as possible.
