  1. 5th Generation HIV Test - TESTD™ HIV (the human immunodeficiency virus) is a serious viral infection that is spread through body fluids, including through sexual intercourse, and this includes vaginal, anal and sometimes oral sex. HIV can also be spread by needle stick contamination, by sharing needles, receiving surgical treatment in foreign countries (where sterilization of equipment may not meet the standards of developed countries) and sometimes it can be passed from the mother to a child during the birth process or through breast feeding.

  2. IS THIS TEST RIGHT FOR ME? HIV Lab Test Kit is easy to use at home. Blood Sample is collected via a simple finger prick method and sent to our partner lab for testing, in a self-addressed envelope provided inside the kit.TESTD provides 5th generation HIV testing, which is the latest technology available. The test seeks to detect both antigens and antibodies. The test can detect HIV antigens (p24) as early as 10 days after exposure but it should be followed up with a 28 day HIV Duo test.

  3. What are the symptoms of HIV? • Not everyone that is infected by HIV will show signs or symptoms of the infection. At first individuals may experience flu-like symptoms, these can include: • diarrhoea • headaches • fatigue • sore throat • muscle aches and pains • If these symptoms do occur they can subside for a number of years and the HIV can go undetected in the body, but during this time the virus will multiply and can be passed on to other people.

  4. What's the big deal with HIV? If left alone and not managed or treated with antiviral tablets, the infection can lead on to a condition called AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), where the immune system becomes weakened and this could eventually lead to life threatening infections and even cancers. AIDS is the last and final stage of the HIV infection; this is when your body can no longer fight the infection. However, if caught early through testing, with the correct antiviral medication, most people with HIV will not go on to develop AIDS.
