How is HIV/AIDS caused?

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is transmitted by contact with infected body fluid (blood, semen, vaginal fluid or breast milk.) HIV uses cells associated with immune function to replicate, rendering the cells ineffective at fighting disease. HIV is the virus that causes a person to develop AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.) AIDS is a diagnosis that is given to an HIV+ person when their immune function has reached a critically low point. After prolonged infection with HIV, a person is notably less able to fight infections.


Can you be exposed to HIV but still be negative?

Yes they can. HIV tests detect Your immune systems HIV anti-bodies and not the HIV itself. In the months after infection (around 6) Your body has not produced enough anti-bodies to be detected on a test. However the person is HIGHLY infectious during this window period. When the Immune system begins fighting back and producing high levels of anti-bodies,this will cause a postitve result on the test.


The yeast infection cause HIV?

Yeast infections do not cause HIV. At least not by themselves. They may however make you more susceptible to it if exposed; but you would still need to actually be exposed to the HIV to get the HIV; the yeast infection would not be the cause of it. When your body is exposed to HIV it might not enter the bloodstream, it may get washed away. With a yeast infection that has open sores, these open sores are extra areas where the HIV could more easily enter the body. Also note that once you have HIV; if your immune system begins to shut down you would become more susceptible to yeast infections because your body would have a harder time fighting them. So HIV can lead to more yeast infections and yeast infections can help facilitate the exposure of HIV; but neither directly causes the other.
