should i go for test again?
Sep 4, 2008

Dear sir, i had a protected sex with sex worker with condom, but i slightly sucked her nipples and saliva of her. Sir, i done HIV V1 and V2 Test after 27 days and after exactly 84 days or exact on the day of 12th weeks , both results are negative. Now should i go for test again or i should forget about it?

Response from Dr. Moyle

Please note that this is a forum on HIV and aging. If you have had 2 negative tests 12 weeks post and exposure you do not need to worry further. Exposure to saliva is not a risk factor for HIV transmission Dr Moyle
