6 weeks ago I had intercourse with a prostitute. I used condom. but it was borken , i took it off when i heard sound, but it took 20 to30 seconds to realize, i had tridot hiv test today and came back as negitve, please let me know my chance of getting infected and how accurate the 6 weeks tridot test?
Thank you for query.The chances of transmission of HIV by sexual route is 1/ 200 to 1/2000 even if the partner is HIV infected.It is least as you have protected intercourse.if condom breakage occurs the chances of secretions coming in contact is still less for males.Tridot test is negative is good but it is not conclusive by 6 weeks.I do not see possibility of HIV infection.You can go for HIV RNA PCR at this stage for allaying your anxiety with HIV.else you can go for ELisa after 3-4 months.You can get back to me for any clarifications with the details.Dr Bharatesh D Basti Dermatologist and Venereologist
