Sir, I am in long distance relationship. Me and my partner are going to meet for first time.

Should I prescribe prep even if she is negative after test?

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (prep) is a medication that can be taken to reduce the risk of hiv transmission. It's typically prescribed to individuals who are at high risk of contracting hiv. Before considering prep, it's crucial to assess the risk factors involved, such as the sexual health history of both partners and their potential exposure to hiv. If both you and your partner are tested for hiv and the results are negative, it indicates that neither of you currently has the virus. Prep may be recommended for individuals who are at ongoing high risk of hiv infection, such as those with a partner who is hiv-positive or those engaging in behaviors that increase the risk. It's essential to have an open and honest conversation with your healthcare provider about your specific situation, your partner's hiv status, and any other relevant factors. They can provide guidance on whether prep is appropriate for you and your partner, taking into consideration your individual health profiles and potential risks. Regards, Dr. Ms. haque.
