Since June 1, 2021, all doctors, including general practitioners, can prescribe PrEP, a preventive treatment for HIV-negative people to avoid the risk of infection with the AIDS virus.
Before that date, the first prescription for this treatment could only be made by doctors from hospital services that take care of HIV, or in a free screening and diagnostic center (CeGIDD). The attending physician could only renew the prescription. Taken in tablets, this pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) treatment based on antiretrovirals helps prevent HIV contamination during sex without a condom.
Are you taking PrEP? Why did you ask for this treatment? What has this treatment changed in your romantic and sexual relationships? Do you keep putting on condoms? Has your GP easily prescribed PrEP for you? Did he ask you questions? Did this new prescription by a general practitioner help you take the plunge? You can testify by filling out the form below. Your testimonials will be used in writing an article. Thanks in advance.
