Prep

Kysymys

I live in Rauma. How is it possible to start using PreP? I often get anxiety regarding having sex with someone new because of fear of Hiv. Is it possible to start the medication? if yes, how and from where?

Hello!

I’m sorry to hear about your fear. Condom and lube give good protection against HIV and other STI’s and if you always use a condom in anal sex. If condom breaks it is possible to take PEP medication. If you have situations where you have risk of HIV (unprotected anal intercourse) then prep should be considered.
