Hi,
Thanks for writing in HCM.
Human Immuno deficiency Virus is present in large quantities in body fluids, especially in blood and genital secretions.
Since you have made an attempt and has come in contact with the secretions, the chances of contacting HIV cannot be ruled out.
You can get your blood checked for HIV status in the following way:
1. The most common HIV test is the antibody screening test (immunoassay), which tests for the antibodies that your body makes against HIV. These antigen/antibody combination tests can find HIV as soon as 3 weeks after exposure to the virus
2. The rapid test is an immunoassay used for screening, and it produces quick results, in 30 minutes or less. If rapid test is conducted during the window period, the test may not find antibodies and may give a false-negative result.
3. RNA tests detect the virus directly, instead of the antibodies to HIV and thus can detect HIV at about 10 days after infection.
You can choose whichever one is feasible for you and get yourself tested to know the status. You have to repeat the quick test between 3 to 6 months even at this instance your result is negative.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
