If someone has had unprotected sex with multiple partners, how can they check whether they have HIV or not?

Asked by Male, 31 · 8 hours ago

If someone has had unprotected sex with multiple partners, the only way to know if they have HIV is by getting tested. A doctor may recommend tests such as the HIV Antibody Test or the HIV Antigen/Antibody Test, which can detect infection after the window period. Testing is usually advised a few weeks after exposure and sometimes repeated after 3 months for confirmation. These tests are simple, confidential, and available at hospitals or diagnostic labs. Early testing helps in getting timely treatment and protecting both personal health and partners.
