Essential Guide to HIV Testing: What to Expect from Your Test Kit

Getting tested for HIV is crucial because about 1 in 8 people with the virus are unaware they have it. A typical HIV test kit usually includes a small plastic test device, test strips to detect HIV antibodies or antigens, and collection materials such as a fingerstick device or a swab for blood or oral fluid samples. It also comes with a buffer solution to process the sample and clear instructions on how to use the kit and interpret the results. The test device features a control line to confirm the test is functioning correctly and a results window where you can see the outcome. Following the instructions carefully is essential for accurate results, and consulting a healthcare provider for any questions or assistance is always a good idea.
