Blips are quite common, the majority being lab errors. Other infections, like COVID or the flu can cause a temporary blip. This <a href=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/guides\/changing\/blips\">guide<\/a> will explain further. Missing an occasional dose of medication is unlikely to cause a blip.<\/p>\n<p>A viral load of 103 is still technically considered undetectable when referring to <a href=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/u-equals-u\/\">U=U.<\/a> Sometimes being detected is a matter of the type of test done. One lab may consider anything under 100 undetectable, whereas another anything under 50 is undetectable. However they both mean U=U is valid, the difference being how sensitive each test is.<\/p>\n<p>If this was a one off, it is likely that you are already undetectable again. Have you had any tests following on from your last? 2 months should be more than long enough to return to an undetectable status.<\/p>\n<p>Josh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, I was diagnosed with HIV in 2020 and have been on  treatment since. I was undetectable within six months of treatment, unfortunately last year, December, my viral load got to 103 because of some of the inconsistency. I would forget to take my pill or will be away and not be able to take it in time. I changed my pill time to a more suitable time however, so I would like to know how long will it take for me to be undetectable again? I have been consistent for the past two months now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,7,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19270","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adherence","category-all-topics","category-cd4-and-viral-load"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19270","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19270"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19270\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19270"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
