1) PrEP is not approved in Canada but you can get Truvada off-label 2) 99% if you take it every day 3) You must take PrEP full 7 days every day to be protected. Continue taking it. Then you have to take it 30 days after last exposure to make sure it kill any possible HIV. Taking one pill on friday probably won't do much. 4) Yes. You just have to take the pill every day to have the 99% less risk of getting HIV. 5) PrEP is definitely a much better idea so you have protection at the time of infection. PEP is only 80% effective, has to be done on 72% of exposure, the drugs have more side effects, and maybe more difficult to find at the moment.

Ejaculating sperm is about the only and main reason of the existence of a man. A load is what makes life go around and why everyone of us exist. Getting that special man seed inside you is what is so arousing and why people love it so much.

This happens to me all the time, and I think for most bottoms the moment you come it's over and getting fucked feels awful. Most good tops understand this and will fuck you slower to make sure you don't come quickly. It's about communication. A good top will also understand that your sex drive is gone for a while and will adjust accordingly. I hate guys who insist in keep fucking you after I've come, or they keep playing with my ass. I do make the effort to get them off if I went first, but if it takes too long I lose interest. Another thing i've found it helps for me its to jack off like half an hour before your hookup. It makes it more difficult to come on your own when you are getting your prostate massaged. -
45 loads in 7 days - is PrEP even a factor?
rawfuckr replied to Pighole88's topic in PrEP Discussion
Some insurance companies have started to require prior authorization when Truvada is prescribed 'without a third agent'... that is for PrEP use. United Healthcare is one of them. The PA is actually very simple and it's just the doctor stating the person is at high risk, reporting condomless buttfucking will suffice. There are really no insurances out there who are not covering Truvada PrEP and most of them have it on Tier 2 as a prefered brand drug so the copays are also not that crazy. It just takes a little bit of shopping around to find the right plan for everyone. -
45 loads in 7 days - is PrEP even a factor?
rawfuckr replied to Pighole88's topic in PrEP Discussion
I thought all the new plans with the ACA would cover Truvada.. maybe just at a higher copay if they put it on a higher tier. I got one individual Silver plan with BlueShield here in California and they are covering PrEP no questions asked. I had to pay $250 yearly deductible but that's it. Gilead is picking up the copays so my cost is now zero. I just ordered a 90 day supply and BlueShield paid all $3500 for it... or so they say they did. I really doubt that's how much they pay to Gilead. Pighole88, you should really try to make an effort to get yourself continuing on PrEP. If you seroconvert the cost of treating your HIV will be so much more than what PrEP will cost, let alone the heavy toll on your health and lifelong consequences. -
Current official recommendation is to take Truvada for 7 days before considering yourself fully protected. I've heard two weeks from other sources but Bob Grant, the guy who has been responsible for iPrEX and probably one of the people in the world that knows more about PrEP talks about 7 days so that seems safe. If you ever want to stop they talk about 4 weeks after last sexual interaction

PrEP is not available for the general public anywhere in Europe. If you are lucky you could find a doctor that may prescribe it off label and would issue a prescription but you would probably have to pay for it and its expensive, usually about 600 euros a month.

Awesome news and you have all the support from people here. Just make sure you are taking it every day very specially the days preceding sexual activity, if you can predict that. I for one have become slightly sluttier since I'm on Truvada but not much. I was very unsafe before and hated myself for it but it was just very difficult for me to have sex with condoms. Also I've noticed that in a way Truvada has made me safer because now I realize how risky raw sex without PrEP is. It's a lot more present in my head and the few breaks I've taken from it I've been pretty consistent about not barebacking. Please share your experiences here with us as you move along.

Through this last years I've noticed that you can get any guy you meet, even those who are 'safe sex only' to fuck you raw without a condom. This is usually what I do to get them to drop the rubbers: - Telling them I'm neg before sex and tested recently. This puts a 'he's clean' tag on you and they'll likely just ram it in without a condom - If the guy insists on condoms, you can fuck a first time with them, and then you get the tag of 'he's clean' and he is very likely to drop them on subsequent times I've met very few guys who are in theory total safe-sex queens but then will go raw with very little doing. Does this mean there is a lot of hypocrisy out there? Do people have the same experiences?

On why I started barebacking
rawfuckr replied to rawfuckr's topic in Making The Decision To Bareback
You sure are a survivor! One friend of mine recently seroconverted and it's having a really rough time getting back to the sex life as poz guy. He gets many rejenctions outright when he discloses his status which I'm sure it's not fun. I've told him not to say anything and use condoms, and only if they ask he should tell.. not sure how I'd handle this. -
I've always thought there is some value on someone who tested negative recently. It's totally true that there is a window period and there is lag in the result, but still much better to know guy was negative from 1-2 months backwards than nothing.

I'll explain my story here. I came out in the early 2000s and spent most of the decade using condoms religiously. I got fucked many times with condoms and it was never a pleasurable experience. It felt like a piece of plastic rubbing my ass. It wasn't until 2009 when someone randomly fucked me raw in a bathhouse and somehow I let it happen. The feeling was so many orders of magnitude better than using rubbers that I had to try again. The next year I barebacked with a few more guys and I just couldn't get enough of it. At the same time I had/have ZERO interest in seroconverting. I know a lot of HIV+ people and they are doing great, but if there is an option for me and for anyone else you just don't want to seroconvert. It is tough. Not wanting HIV is diametrically opposed to any sort of barebacking so I didn't know what to do. I started serosorting heavily for the next few years and stayed neg. I would also ask most partners not to dump their load in me. Contrary from most of the people here I don't get much of a thrill from it so it's pointless to take the risk in exchange for nothing. Then PrEP came along. Was on it right after approval. No side effects, and still neg after a few years. I haven't used condoms for a long time now, but I go out of the way to use every other safer sex practice there is, like serosorting, pull outs, PrEP i only let a selected group of people come inside. I got chlamydia in the butt and the mouth last year but that's about it. HIV neg so far. Barebacking feels so much better for me that I'm at a point where I'll forgo sex with condoms because it feels sort of pointless. Barebacking comes with huge baggage and risk so at the end for me it's tradeoff of living life. Do you have a sex life that is not that fulfilling but you don't get any diseases, or you let it go have a great time and risk getting stuff. It's a difficult question and I haven't really answered yet.

I'm using condoms less and less these days
rawfuckr replied to CaliBugChaserSD's topic in Making The Decision To Bareback
Go on PrEP ASAP. Will give you decent protection for HIV infection and you don't have to change your behavior -
Syphilis sores tend to be more round and defined. If it was a herpes outbreak you'd know for sure. They hurt a lot.It could be just banalitis, a fungal infection. I'd do two things: 1) Go to the health clinic to get it checked right away 2) Use an over the counter anti-fungal cream to see if it goes away. Clotrimazole is good. Apply for a whole week three times a day without missing doses. If sores go away it was probably fungal.

Truvada is an extremely well tolerated drug and the side effects short term are close to none. Virtually everyone who takes it experience no side effects, and the few that do they are mild and go away in a week or two. This is a conclusion from placebo controlled studies, not from some random anecdotal evidence. As a word of caution, the side effects on of taking this long term on HIV- guys are pretty much unknown so if you can it's really not a bad idea to get month long breaks from it and adjust your unsafe behavior accordingly. There seems to be some association with mild Bone Density Loss but doesn't seem to be serious for some people. It's also very important you do this under doctor supervision so they are always checking your liver numbers are ok.

You don't have to take PrEP if you are 100% not having condomless sex. The current start/stopping official protocol is the following: 1) You take PrEP for 7 days to be fully protected. Some people say 2 weeks, but the doctors that run iPrEX say 7 days should give ample margin and drug buildup in the body. 2) You have sex during whatever period you may want. 3) Whenever you decide to stop PrEP you must keep taking it for 4 weeks AFTER the last unsafe encounter. Any sort of unsafe encounter resets the clock for 4 more weeks. If you just want to do 2 weeks, you can do a PCR HIV test after 2 weeks and if it comes back negative you can stop then. Definitely no need to be on it if you are not having sex.

There is nothing on the horizon in terms of a cure or a vaccine. Even if they found the mechanisms for a cure or vaccine today it could take a whole decade to bring it to market. That's why interventions like PrEP are so important.

This is Truck on Folsom street? How is the bar allowing this given how backroom-phobic the officials of SF have become?

Possible cure for Hep C
rawfuckr replied to BearOKC69_Poz's topic in HIV/AIDS & Sexual Health Issues
Sadly the cost of these treatment, about $100K for a 12 week those is going to make it unavailable for a lot of people.
