Better with PrEP

Why is Life Better with PrEP?

PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) puts the power of prevention in your hands. It's a pill you take to protect yourself from HIV. When used correctly, PrEP is over 90% effective at stopping HIV from taking hold and spreading in your body after potential exposure.

PrEP is for ALL people

PrEP isn’t just for some. It’s for everyone at risk of HIV. This means gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men, transgender men and women, sex workers, pregnant women who may be at risk, and anyone in situations that put them at higher risk of HIV exposure. If you think PrEP could be right for you, it probably is.

Where Can I Get PrEP?

Access to PrEP can vary by location, but your healthcare professional is the best person to guide you on how to start. They can help you understand how PrEP fits into your prevention plan, based on your individual needs and risks. If PrEP isn't available to you, they can also discuss other forms of prevention to keep you protected.

How Does PrEP Work?

You’ve heard of PrEP, but do you really understand how it works? Knowing exactly how this prevention tool works can help you feel more confident about protecting yourself.

Let’s take a journey to learn how PrEP protects you from HIV:

MPOX

Being informed about MPOX (formerly known as monkeypox) is key to protect your sexual health, especially when it comes to how it spreads and affects our community. If you notice any symptoms or think you may have been exposed, talk to a healthcare professional. Early detection is your best defense.

SYPHILIS

If you're at risk of HIV, you're also at risk for other sexually transmitted infections, such as syphilis.

Syphilis is an infection caused by bacteria that can be passed through skin-to-skin contact with sores or fluids during sex. It's important to protect yourself and your partners by using condoms and getting regular check-ups. The good news? Syphilis is easy to treat and fully curable when detected early.
