Want To Get Tested For HIV. How Fast Should I Go For Test?
Question: I want to get tested for hiv infection. How fast i can get tested.
Hi XXXXX,
You could get tested for HIV after 21 days using a HIV P-24 antigen assay test. Alternatively, you could wait for 3 months and get a HIV ELISA test.
ELISA is cheaper in cost compared to P24 antigen assay.
Wish you good luck.
