Are negative 4th generation HIV lab tests conclusive?

Patient's Query

Una prueba de vih de 4ta generación de laboratorio a los 71 ,90 y 94 días después .. del contacto sexual con protección todas negativas es concluyente , oh tengo que esperar más tiempo ?

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Getting three negative results for a 4th generation HIV test at 71, 90, and 94 days after a protected sexual encounter is actually quite reassuring. These tests are highly accurate, but in some cases, it's recommended to confirm with a final test around the 3-month mark. However, with your results all coming back negative, the likelihood of a false negative is extremely low. It's always good to follow up with your physician for further guidance and support.

I am 38 years and married. In October, last year I went to donate blood but was told one of the test is positive for HIV. I was asked to retest after months. I did and it is still same inconclusive result. What should I do?

Male | 38

The fact that your test was inconclusive implies that it's still not clear if you are HIV positive or not. Regarding the symptoms of HIV, they are similar to fever, tiredness, and weight loss. More likely, bringing about can be unsafe sex or sharing needles. Therefore, you must see a doctor

If hb is11.28 Iron21 Tibc 533 Transferrin saturation 4% Is it severe ida

Female | 19

Your hemoglobin is 11.28, iron is 21, TIBC is 533, and transferrin saturation is 4%. These results do suggest a low iron level, which could indicate iron deficiency anemia. This means your body doesn't have enough iron to make sufficient red blood cells, affecting oxygen transport. It's essential to address this to prevent symptoms like fatigue and weakness. I'd recommend increasing iron-rich foods like spinach, red meat, and lentils in your diet. Additionally, your doctor may suggest iron supplements. Regular follow-ups will help monitor your levels and adjust treatment if needed.

I am 22 years old and having normal diet frequently .But i don't see my muscle mass is increasing. It's like khana kha raha hui par pata nhi kaha ja raha hai. (1)Can u suggest me better diet plan in terms of increasing my muscle density. (2) Can i take whey protein powder as form of daily protein intake without doing gym ?

Male | 22

To do this, eat foods such as chicken, fish, eggs, and beans for protein. Also, have a lot of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains for your health in general. It is alright to take whey protein powder as a supplement, but it would be most effective if used with regular exercises that build muscles. Always keep in mind that working out is essential for muscle development!

I am 18yrs old......my gender is female....I have so many dizziness and I was test my haemoglobin and it's is 18.6 is this high or low

Female | 18

A hemoglobin level of 18.6 is already a high value. This may be what is behind your dizziness. In addition, high hemoglobin can also result in headaches and red skin. It might be dehydration, lung diseases, or heart problems. To decrease hemoglobin levels, drink more water, refrain from smoking, and work out regularly. Iron-rich foods such as broccoli and beans can also help.

I had an I pill last month and my blood tests today are High platelet counts Wbc count -7.95 Gran %-76.5 Platelets -141 PDW-SD-19.7 What does this mean

Female | 19

Your blood test shows some changes. A high platelet level might indicate swelling or infection. With a WBC count of 7.95, your body's defense system is active. The Gran% tells about certain white blood cells, which increase when there's an infection. Your platelet count of 141 is normal, but it’s good to keep an eye on it. It seems your body might be fighting off an illness, so it's wise to discuss these results with your doctor for further advice.

Stem cell transplant for sickling

Female | 13

When red blood cells change shape and get stuck in the body, sickling occurs, which causes pain and infections. It is due to an error in your genetic makeup that you were born with. By providing new cells that create healthy blood, a stem cell transplant may correct this. Eventually, such a therapy could lower the frequency of sickling and improve overall well-being.

స్త్రీ | 28

The sickle cell trait itself implies the fact that you have a gene that encodes it but not its full condition. Jaundice might result from other conditions but not from sickle cell trait. The pain on the left side where the spleen is may be a symptom of it being enlarged. See your orthodox doctor for safety reasons so you may be treated properly.

Your blood test results have come back as abnormal. Generally, high levels of lym p-lc, MCV, PDW, mpv, and rdw-cv, in the case of low MHC and platelet count, can indicate various conditions. Your symptoms of anxiety, night fever, leg pain, and weight loss are bothersome. These abnormal results and symptoms may be linked to health issues such as anemia, infections, or inflammatory conditions. A doctor's follow-up is necessary for detailed diagnosis and treatment of the problem.

Female | 20

You might have been affected by an infection with a virus that has in turn caused a blood infection which in turn may cause joint pains in your legs. Antibiotics can disrupt the equilibrium of our body's good bacteria, causing joint pain. For relief of the joint pains, you can try gently exercising, using heat or ice treatment, and taking a break. Stay well-hydrated and eat fresh and good foods to provide adequate support to your body during the healing process.

I went to general check and blood test. I got CEA test level 8.16 I don't smoke or drink. Reason for it. Is it normal

Male | 55

CEA stands for Carcinoembryonic Antigen, a protein produced in the body, and the levels of it in the body may be high because of different causes such as inflammation or infection. Usual symptoms are unusual with a slight increase in CEA levels, but further tests and monitoring are also often necessary. It’s important to visit your healthcare provider to find out the exact reasons for your condition and the best ways to fight it.
