What do we test for?

HIV-1 & HIV-2 Antibodies

Proteins produced by your immune system in response to HIV infection. Detecting these antibodies confirms whether you have been exposed to HIV-1 or HIV-2.

HIV p24 Antigen

A viral protein that appears in blood shortly after HIV infection, before antibodies develop. Early detection of p24 antigen allows quicker diagnosis during the acute phase.

Frequently asked questions

How does the HIV 1 & 2 Antibodies & p24 Antigen home blood test kit work?

Our HIV 1 & 2 Antibodies & p24 Antigen home blood test kit uses a small-volume self-sampling blood collection device. You collect a few drops of blood onto a special card, send it to our accredited lab, and receive your secure results online. The test detects both HIV antibodies and the p24 antigen for reliable screening.

How accurate is the HIV home blood testing kit for antibodies and p24 antigen?

When used at least 4 weeks after potential exposure, our at-home blood test kit is over 99% accurate in detecting HIV antibodies and p24 antigen. Early p24 antigen detection improves sensitivity in the first weeks post-exposure.

When should I take the HIV p24 antigen test after a potential exposure?

p24 antigen can be detected as early as 2–3 weeks after exposure to HIV, before antibodies develop. We recommend waiting at least 4 weeks for the most reliable combined antibody/p24 antigen result.

How do I collect my blood sample with the small-volume kit?

Simply use the included lancet to prick your fingertip, collect a few drops of blood into the small-volume self-sampling kit, allow the sample to dry, then return it in the prepaid envelope. Full instructions are in the pack.

Can I get a GP follow-up appointment after my at-home HIV test?

Yes. After your at-home HIV test results are delivered, you can book a follow-up GP appointment with Mayfield Clinic in person or via video call (additional fees apply) to discuss next steps and any treatment options.
