Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) causes AIDS, a condition where the immune system weakens severely. HIV spreads through unprotected sex, sharing needles, or from mother to child during birth or breastfeeding. Many people don’t show symptoms for years, yet the virus quietly damages the immune system. Early diagnosis and treatment allow people to live long, healthy lives and prevent transmission.
Our HIV-1/2 At-Home Test Kit offers a simple, private way to check your status. Using a finger-prick blood sample, it detects antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2 with about 99.8% accuracy. Results are clear in 15 minutes, no lab or clinic visits needed. The kit meets ISO 13485 standards and ships discreetly.
Symptoms & Complications
Asymptomatic: Many have no symptoms initially. Some experience mild flu-like symptoms 2–4 weeks after infection, but most feel fine for years while the virus remains infectious.
Mild: Early signs can include fever, fatigue, swollen glands, headache, and rash, which usually resolve within weeks.
Severe: Untreated HIV progresses to AIDS, causing severe immune failure. Symptoms include weight loss, chronic infections, cancers, neurological problems, and extreme fatigue. Without treatment, AIDS is fatal.
Untreated Risks
Untreated HIV leads to AIDS in about 10 years, with life-threatening infections and cancers. Mothers can transmit HIV to babies without treatment. Knowing your status and starting treatment suppresses the virus and prevents transmission (“U=U”: Undetectable = Untransmittable).
Early & Repeat Testing Recommended
Window Period: HIV antibodies usually appear 3–6 weeks after infection. Test at 6 weeks for accuracy; if recent exposure, retest after 2–3 weeks.
Confirmatory Test: Positive results require medical confirmation and treatment initiation.
Partner Testing: Encourage partners to test to protect each other and manage health together.
How It Works
Collect Sample: Use the sterile lancet to prick your finger and collect a blood drop.
Apply & Wait: Add blood and buffer to the test device and wait 15 minutes.
Read Results: Two lines = positive; one control line = negative; no control line = invalid (repeat test).
