Accepted Answer

The window period for HIV testing varies depending on the type of test used, ranging from 10 to 90 days.   For a non-reactive result after 140 days, it's likely that the test has detected the absence of HIV antibodies and antigens, indicating a negative status. The best test for HIV detection is the 4th generation antibodyantigen test, which can detect 99% of samples within 45 days. However, if you're still concerned, consider a nucleic acid test (NAT), which can detect HIV within 10-33 days.
