HIV Early Detect - STD Panel Test: Understanding HIV and its Early Detection

  • What is HIV

    HIV, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a viral infection that spreads through sexual contact, blood transfusion and shared needle use. It weakens the body's immune system and the patient eventually is infected by other germs.

  • How is HIV Diagnosed?

    HIV is diagnosed using blood tests like the HIV Test, which checks for HIV antibodies, and the HIV-1-RNA Detection Test, which looks for the virus itself.

  • When to do HIV Tests?

    The test should be done if you were exposed to blood or body fluids of someone who had HIV, or if you had an unknown blood transfusion, or if you have multiple partners as a precaution.

  • How is HIV treated?

    HIV is treated with antiretroviral therapy to control the multiplication of the virus and reduce the total viral load, while protecting against other infections.

Do this panel of tests if you have any of the following symptoms :

  • Unexplained Weight Loss

    Losing weight quickly without a good cause.

  • Frequent Fevers or Sweats

    Having a lot of fevers or night sweats are signs of a chronic infection, including HIV.

  • Swollen Lymph Nodes

    If parts of your body like the neck or armpits have swollen glands, it could mean that your body is fighting some kind of an infection

  • Recurring Infections

    Getting sick often with infections could mean a viral infection is weakening your immunity.

  • Fatigue

    Feeling constantly exhausted in combination with any of the other symptoms is a sign of HIV.
