Why having a healthier relationship has been made easier for all couples

Having a healthy relationship does not just mean having a daily conversation, solving issues and meeting your partner’s needs. It comes with all that but your partner’s health is what matters more.

Therefore it is important to question yourself your lifestyle and ways of living. A part from eating right and making sure you are fit have you thought about your HIV status?

I will not assume that most people stick to one partner and for this reason this is where PrEP comes in. Well, PrEP which means Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, is the use of anti-HIV medications to keep HIV negative people from becoming infected.

The medication which has been approved by doctors around the world helps prevent HIV negative people most at risk of HIV infection to reduce their chances of becoming infected.

The reason why it plays a major role in a healthy relationship is because it significantly reduces a person’s risk of getting an HIV infection if taken daily. When PrEP is taken daily – it lowers the risk of getting HIV from sex by more than 90% and from injection drug use by more than 70%. – remove this

However, it is important to note that one should combine additional strategies like using using Condoms with PrEP to reduce the risk of getting infected even further.

If you care for those you love then PrEP is the only way to go for a healthier and longer relationship!
