What is an HIV self-test?

An HIV self-test offers you an accurate and private way to test for HIV in the comfort of your own home using an HIV self-test kit.

HIV self-testing does not provide a final diagnosis or result. Instead, it is a screening test that shows the presence of cells and antibodies in your blood which fight HIV. A self-test is accurate, but a positive test needs to be verified with another blood-based test (confirmatory test). This can be done at a laboratory or with your Healthcare Professional.

FAQ

Is HIV self-screening the right option for me ?

HIV self-screening is one of the ways you can find out your HIV status. For some people, self-screening is a more comfortable option.

  • You can test when you want to test – at any time of the day or night.
  • You can test where you want to test – alone or with friend, partner, relative or health care provider.

Why should I self-test for HIV ?

Testing yourself for HIV is important for your relationships, your life and your future.

  • Self-testing is one of the ways that you can get to know your status.
  • Knowing your status means you can keep yourself and your sexual partners healthy.
  • Early diagnosis means you can act fast to ensure a long, healthy life.

What should I do if I test positive ?

If you have a positive result you need to have another test done by a health care provider to confirm the result.

If you are positive, you can access life-saving HIV treatment to prolong your life.

What should I do if I test negative ?

If you have a negative test, you could have been exposed to HIV in the 12 weeks prior to this HIV self-testing i.e. you may be in the window period. Therefore, it is important to repeat the test in 12 weeks.

If you test negative, stay negative through:

  • practising safe sex and using a condom
  • staying faithful to one partner
  • going for circumcision if you are a male.

Can my child use the HIV self-test kit ?

Assisted HIV self-screening is recommended for children between the ages of 12 and 17 years. It is also recommended that testing of children below 12 years of age be done at a health care facility.

I’m worried I have been exposed to HIV within the past 72 hours, can I still use the HIV self-screening kit ?

Yes, however, it can take up to 12 weeks to detect HIV after exposure. You need to visit your health care provider as soon as possible, where you may be able to access a course of Post Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) and have a blood sample taken to the laboratory for specialised testing.

When will delivery take place ?

Delivery will be during office hours (09:00am to 16:00am), Monday to Friday.
