[Question #11428] Please don’t Delete - clarity from last question
14 months ago
|
I’m so sorry to be back and please don’t delete. I just need clarity. In my last post the doctor referenced Prep. However, I was talking about PEP.
Is it possible to infect my partner during my if we had sex during my 30 day course of PEP and myself subsequently test negative 6 weeks after I’ve finished PEP? If this is not possible, can you please explain the biology behind it?
Please do not delete, I promise I will not be back with any repetitive questions. I have no where to turn and just want to understand

Your pathological, misdirected anxiety needs to be addressed. Indeed, I did respond to your earlier question referring to PrEP rather than PEP which is what the question is about but that it beside the point. Your negative test 6 weeks after finishing PEP PROVES that you were not infected. There is no reason for debate about that. Persons who do not have HIV cannot transmit it. Had your PEP failed, your 6 week test would have been positive.
Please do not return to the Forum. Further "what if" or "could it..." questions will not be tolerated. EWH

Thank you so much doctor. I really appreciate you not closing my question and providing me with a straight, honest answer and showing me that this is all just my anxiety.
With so much mis information out there about a person being able to infect others while on PEP, but subsequently testing negative because the PEP cured them left me with so much anxiety.
I appreciate all you and dr. Hunter do here
