weeks after exposure
to become positive.
Antibody tests. These tests search for antibodies
to HIV in blood or
saliva. Most rapid HIV tests, including
self-tests done reception , are
antibody tests.

Nucleic acid tests (NATs). These tests search for
the particular virus in
your blood (viral load). They also involve blood
drawn from a vein. If
you would possibly are exposed to HIV within the
past few weeks,
your doctor may recommend NAT. NAT are going to
be the primary
test to become positive after exposure to HIV.

therefore the best
treatment, including
CD4 T cell count. CD4 T cells are white blood

specifically targeted and destroyed by HIV.
albeit youve got no
symptoms, HIV infection progresses to AIDS when
your CD4 T cell
count dips below 200.

Viral load (HIV RNA). This test measures the
quantity of virus in your
blood. After starting HIV treatment the goal is
to possess an
undetectable viral load. This significantly
reduces your chances of
infection and other HIV-related complications.
Drug resistance. Some strains of HIV are immune
to medications. This
test helps your doctor determine if your specific
sort of the virus has
resistance and guides treatment decisions.
