HIV Symptoms After 6 Months

By six months after infection, according to HIV-Symptoms.info, HIV-disease has reached its second stage, the asymptomatic. During this stage, there are no symptoms of HIV present.この段階での症状がないことと、急性HIV感染の症状の非特異的な性質のため、多くの人々はウイルスにかかっていることに気付いていません。

1. 急性HIV感染

   • The only symptoms of HIV-disease present before six months are those of acute HIV infection.急性HIV感染の症状は一般に、感染から2〜4週間後に発生し、最大1か月間続きます。つまり、感染後6か月までに症状は存在しません。 However, during acute HIV infection, the immune system launches its first defense against the virus; this leads to the symptoms of seroconversion (developing antibodies) illness.

     HIV-symptoms.infoによれば、これらには、のど、発熱、頭痛、その他の痛みと痛み、腫れたリンパ節、疲労感、皮膚発疹、消化器系の問題が含まれます。 The symptoms of seroconversion illness generally appear within two to four weeks after infection and clear up within a month.

   無症候性HIV

   • After the symptoms of seroconversion illness clear, HIV-disease enters its longest stage, the asymptomatic. This stage lasts for an average of 10 years, and there are no symptoms present during this time.

     Symptoms will not appear again until the immune system has become severely weakened by HIV, during third-stage HIV-disease (symptomatic HIV).この段階は、HIV-synptoms.infoによると、汗をかいた、真菌感染症の発症、体重減少、皮膚および呼吸の問題を含む他の症状を伴う慢性インフルエンザのような病気によって特徴付けられています。

   テスト

   • The symptoms of acute HIV infection are very similar to those of many other viral infections. This means that, without further testing, it is not possible to reach a diagnosis of HIV.

     HIV testing is the only way to know one's HIV status. Most HIV tests screen for the presence of antibodies to the virus. This means that they rely on seroconversion, the development of a detectable number of antibodies. This process takes an average of one month after infection.保護されていない性別や共有皮下針を使用して、HIVにさらされたと信じる人々は、曝露の可能性がある後、1か月以上HIV検査を求める必要があります。 HIVTest.org helps locate local HIV testing centers; see Resources below.

   予防

   • Knowing one's HIV status makes it possible to take necessary precautions to protect others. Barriers should be used during vaginal and anal sex; female condoms can be used for both vaginal and anal sex by couples who do not wish to use male condoms. Condoms and dental dams (for cunnilingus) should also be used for oral sex. Needles should not be shared.

   監視

   • HIVの状態を知ることにより、ウイルス量検査とCD4（HIVを標的とする免疫細胞）テストを介したHIV-diseaseの進行を監視することもできます。 Using this knowledge, individuals and their doctors can make appropriate decisions about treatment and health maintenance.
