Why do some doctors and official organisations discourage the use of the HIV HomeTest?

Doctors, government and official organisations discourage HIV home testing because you can not control home testing. When people test for HIV alone at home and they have a positive test result, it can be very difficult to cope with this information. When a doctor does the test, he or she can inform you in the best way and guide you through the first shock. Furthermore, a variety of HIV tests can be sold through the internet and it is difficult to control the quality of the tests. Finally, although the tests are relatively simple, it can still be difficult to interpret the result if you are not medically trained. We are well aware of these disadvantages and we try to handle with them the best way possible. Therefore, we sell only high quality products and provide our customers the best information and insight in the quality and reliability of our tests. Furthermore, we give clear information about what to do if a test result is positive and we recommend to do a HIV test with somebody you trust, not alone. Our service does not end once a test leaves our office. Our experienced employees and our physician can answer all the questions regarding the tests, interpretation of the test result and the consequences of the test result.
