My Boyfriend is HIV Positive but Undetectable | Ask a PRO!

Check out our new series Ask a PRO! We'll be answering all your sexual health-related questions

It’s very common for us as gay men to have sex with someone of a different HIV status. If your boyfriend is HIV-positive and undetectable you have nothing to be scared of if you guys are going to have sex and not use condoms. If someone has an undetectable viral load the chance of transmitting the virus is virtually impossible. So it’s really important for HIV-positive people to go on treatment as soon as they are diagnosed because that means they can have a healthy, normal, extended life but it also means that they chance of transmitting the virus is reduced so significantly that it’s impossible. So if he’s positive and undetectable and you’re negative you also don’t just have to rely on the fact that he’s undetectable. If you’re negative you have the option to choose to go on PrEP, the HIV prevention pill, which also reduces your chance of contracting HIV by over 98%. So now you have options if you’re negative. Your boyfriend has options as someone who is positive and we can all work together to make the decisions that work best for us in terms of preventing HIV.
