Why Be Tested for HIV?

Being tested is the only way to confirm if you have HIV. You may be nervous about the results, but early detection has many benefits:
Early diagnosis allows you and your doctor to begin developing a treatment plan that could ward off complications and infections and provide years of healthy living.
Left untreated, HIV can cause life-threatening health problems.
Early diagnosis alert you to avoid high-risk behavior that spreads the disease to others.
Being tested can eliminate the anxiety of not knowing your HIV status.
