Does anyone know what the chances are that a persons body will not produce
antibodies to the HIV virus 3 and a half months after exposure? My girlfriend and I may have been exposed to HIV and we were tested for it 3 and a half months after the possible exposure, and both of us received negative results, but I'm still worried. I have heard the window period can be up to a year long, but then I have also read if no antibodies are detected after 3 months then no more testing is needed.
