Does hiv symptoms show in 10 days?


Does hiv symptoms show in 10 days?

No, it takes months and even years for symptoms to develop.

no. in fact, it may take 10 years for any symptoms to appear. however, while there are no symptoms, the infection is there, and can be spread.

according to my health class I had in college a couple years back, it can be undetectable until 6 months after contracting it, you can test and test all you want and still not know til the antibodies are produced at 6 months. Sorry if you contracted it, but you won't know as soon as 10 days. You may see some kind of symptoms, but not much at first, they will increase as time goes on and your immune system drops.

Please see the webpages for more details on Early symptomatic HIV infection and HIV infection.

no, you can't even be tested after ten days

Within two to four weeks after contracting the the Virus most people experience flu like symptoms, such as a cold, body soreness, fever, etc. once these symptoms pass it's very possible symptoms of this virus could remain dormant for months or even years. That's why regular testing is so very important.

*Note: Although you may have these flu like symptoms, your HIV Test results may still reflect a negative status.

Many people do not have any symptoms when they first become infected with HIV. Some people have a flu-like illness within a month or two after exposure to the virus. These early symptoms, which usually disappear within a week to a month, include:

Fever

Sore throat

Rash

Headache and other body aches

Tiredness

Enlarged lymph nodes (glands of the immune system, easily felt in the neck or groin)

During this period, people are very infectious, and HIV is present in large quantities in blood and genital fluids.

Chronic symptoms

Adults may be symptom-free for months 鈥?or as much as ten years or more 鈥?after HIV first enters their body before more persistent or severe symptoms appear. During this symptom-free period, individuals are infectious and can transmit the HIV virus to others. In children born with HIV infection, these symptoms are likely to appear within two years. These chronic symptoms include:

Large lymph nodes or swollen glands that may be enlarged for more than three months

Lack of energy

Diarrhea

Weight loss

Frequent fevers and sweats

Persistent or frequent yeast infections (oral or vaginal)

Persistent skin rashes or flaky skin

Pelvic inflammatory disease in women that does not respond to treatment

Short-term memory loss

Children may grow slowly or be sick a lot.
