One of your main arguments against condoms is that people don't use them correctly. Yet, somehow you expect those same people, who can't do a simple thing like put a condom on properly, to stick to the schedule required to maximise the effectiveness of Truvada.
Wishful (and highly flawed) thinking West. Particularly, given your pathetic performance on this thread, a drop in IQ must be an undocumented side effect of being on Truvada...
You're kidding right? If you were heterosexual, this might be easier for you to understand. Who is more likely to get pregnant: woman who only relies on her partners to use condoms or a woman on the birth control pill? I guess women are better at taking a daily pill than men?Quote:

From what I can tell, he seems to be doing the right thing by reducing risk by taking PrEP, he's being honest with his partners and he's enjoying his life. Besides HIV is not the end of the world. I know poz people that are doing just fine in their sex lives. Some poz people I know are undetectable on meds and they will use no condoms with a knowing negative partner and nothing gets transmitted. Both parties are happy and fine with it.
His refusal to answer questions as well as his own sources that contradict him on top of thinking this medication is an absolute substitute for condoms and other precautions. like you said, "some" people you know. Not everyone is going to be okay with that. Some may still want to use multiple forms of protection because it's about maximizing your protection, not replacing it.Quote:

Thanks for proving my point. There's a reason they never developed the male contraceptive pill...Quote:

Also, I'm not sure what your statement even means. Take it when you know you're exposed?[/QUOTE]
It means after you've had sex with somebody then you go to get a blood test together, your results come back as negative but the other persons come back as positive. That's when you've been exposed!!
A couple more quotes from your "informative article"Quote:

I'm not. "
"yes, you should continue to use condoms even while taking Truvada to avoid getting other STD's."
What have I been saying right throughout this thread?...
Are you now going to argue with your own source material?
LMAO!Quote:

Westheangelino is one of these new-fangled social media administrators working for or on behalf of the makers of Truvada. By continuing to engage him, and referencing the articles he posts you're helping him to drive up traffic related to Truvada. If you are truly annoyed with him just ignore him and his articles. He'll just have to spend more time on other forums under some other alias.
I, for one, know that PrEP is a huge step in the prevention of HIV transmission, and if the claims that it reduces the likelihood of transmission of herpes, then really the only STI risk is for bacterial infections. Bacteria is easy enough to pick up from a million non-sexual places, and is easily treated (at least for now, but that's a whole OTHER messy conversation).
The only 100% surefire way to not catch an STI or some kid of bacteria is to be a virgin in a bubble.

Bella, I agree with most of what you're saying. However, Hepatitis for example IS a virus and an extremely nasty one.Quote:

Hey everyone
Is anyone on the board taking PrEP?
Has anyone personally purchased online?
Reliable site or order?
I see Truvada is really high but a generic is out, made in India.
Anyone on Tenvir EM?
Thanks
Who is moderating now?
How did my thread turn in to a reply at the bottom of the list?
I moved the post into this existing thread which discusses Truvada,PreP etc.Quote:

If you’re using PrEP it’s important that you go for regular STI screens every three months so you can get any other infections treated."
and
"PrEP only protects you from HIV. Other precautions are needed to protect you from all other STIs."
Then you dont understand PreP. Please see your doctor so he can explain it to you again.Quote:

Truly sad that Wes was got all this grief here in this community for trying to help us.....
Now quite a few stars are using PreP regularly....
Indeed. It really is surprising that so many men who sleep with trans women are still resistant to taking PrEP.Quote:

I have a question. Does the TG world use the same testing sites as het porn?
I know when Dr. Sharon Mitchell (sick joke) was running things, they didn’t test for STDs and nearly the whole industry has herpes. Don’t understand the idea of focusing on HIV while blithely ignoring potential positives for gonorrhea, syphilis and Herpes. Which are much more easily spread by sexual contact
Is that still the case?
I haven't read it again yet...but please correct me if I'm mistaken...Quote:

You are correct, yet he was perfectly happy to risk other STD's while on his free trial of Truvada. Even admitting to catching one.Quote:

Take doxy prep as well
2:1:! protocol for me.
