I had unprotected sex today with a top who was HIV positive since 2003 and he told me he cannot transmit the virus now. He said once he was taking 38 pills but now only takes 1. I said no to him for sex but while foreplay I lost control of my mind and let him fuck me for like 5 strokes. I'm sure he didn't cum but I'm a virgin and know my asshole is a weak sucker for diseases. I'm very stressed. Shall I take PEP? If yes, where can I get it in a Berlin, Germany? I'm new to Germany and don't know German.

Last month I got stealthed by this guy at the bath house. When I wasn't watching, he removed the condom he had insisted on using and then proceeded to cum in me. When I found out, for some reason instead of being angry I decided to immediately suck his cock and then let him breed me a second time - raw. The next day I went and requested PEP because if I seroconvert, I rather it didn't occur in the context of a random hookup. (For those who aren't familiar with PEP, the acronym refers to post-exposure propylaxis, which amounts to taking anti-retroviral medication (ART) after having been potentially exposed to HIV. The purpose is to prevent seroconversion. PEP should be used only in emergency situations and must be started within 72 hours after a recent possible exposure to HIV. For various reason, the cocktail of Truvada and Isentress really set badly with my stomach and I was so annoyed by it I found myself irritated about having to take the medication, particularly as I had been instructed to eat a meal with the Truvada. (Apparently taking Truvada on a full stomach boosts absorption.) In any event, more than once I took the medication late, on one occasion four hours late, and additionally I did not eat very much while taking Truvada. I even flushed my daily dose once as requested by some members of the forum. For some reason doing so really turned me on. The treatment was to last 28 days, but during the last two weeks I developed a sore throat and feverish symptoms that went away after six days. Nothing too serious or tough. Now that I have finished the treatment I'm supposed to see my doctor in 30 days, then at the 90 day mark, and finally at the 180 day mark - just to verify if it worked. I was wondering if anyone on this site has ever taken PEP, and if so, did it work? When I told to the doctor I was not sticking to the timing he gave me, and that I was having sex during the PEP period, he got pretty pissed off saying that I was risking becoming resistant to the cocktail, and he also suggested I might have a high viral load, in which case I would be dangerous to any guys with whom I had sex.

Hi guys, So Monday night I went to the bathhouse, being very high, and have been fucked by several guys. I insisted on playing safe but some would "pop in" with their dicks when , after I noticed, I only wanted to continue by playing safe. Then with one guy we fucked (I was bottom) and then after he came, the condom was gone. He said it probably slid off and we bought a douche to see that the condom was indeed in my ass. I wasn't really panicking (he said he was neg) since I thought this guy was honest, but tbh I was so high, I couldn't tell. So now I'm in my comedown and realising it was risky behaviour, so now I just started taking a PEP treatment. My question, being a very piggy boy once in a while and feel like I still wanna try and experiment, if for example tomorrow I would go to the bathhouse again and take as many loads as possible (never have done that before, but really a dark fantasy), will PEP still do it's job? I feel the need to get all of my piggyness out this time. Of course no guarantee, but will I deduce the effects of PEP if I take more loads with possible HIV? (I'm aware of not being protected for sti's) Ps. I heard of PrEP but unfortunately it's not yet available in my country. Will do that ASAP when it is available.

First of all, I wanted to apologies if I made this on a wrong forum I'm on pep 3rd day, 5th doses, my body feeling really weird 1st day - diarrhea x 4 2nd day - increased fatigue, diarrhea x3, 3rd day- fatigue , diarrhea and counting, nausea and sweating for 15 mins Will this ever gets better I'm taking my dose religiously , am now afraid to pop my 6th dose later tonight

Will spare details on this but I've been exposed to HIV and I am taking ATRIPLA as PEP. I am having an extremely difficult time with the side effects, don't have Dr.'s or anyone to talk to where I am currently living (I was lucky enough to get the PEP in the first place) but for various reasons I don't think I will be able to take it for 4 weeks. I have been about a week already, started about 16 hours after the exposure(s). I cannot find any information on statistics etc for people who have been exposed but taken less than 4 weeks' of PEP. Does anybody have any information/guidance? Can 2 weeks' PEP still reduce the risk of infection, or is it kind of all-or-nothing?
