Is PrEP for Women?

Yes! PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) for women is a once daily pill that is 99% effective at preventing HIV. Cisgender women make up 20% of new HIV diagnoses in the U.S., yet they comprise only 5% of all PrEP users. We want to change that and empower all women to take control of their sexual health!

Did you know? Most of our patients receive PrEP services, prescriptions, and shipping at no cost.

Is PrEP Right For Me?

PrEP is for women and anyone who is at risk of getting HIV. If you are frequently having sex, especially receptive vaginal sex, you might be at risk of HIV.

The great news is women have access to several PrEP medication options including convenient, once-daily oral pills. In addition to Truvada, women may now consider Descovy, which has been shown to be effective in women and is recommended by IAS-USA. Your licensed Q Care Plus provider will be able to discuss your PrEP options with you during your confidential, online visit.

PrEP injectable options like Yeztugo and Apretude are not available through telehealth at this time. Your provider can discuss both PrEP oral and injectable options during your visit.

Can Women Take PrEP With Other Medications?

PrEP is safe for women taking hormonal birth control including pills, patches, and most IUDs, and it does not interfere with birth control’s efficacy.

PrEP is also safe to take with:
+ Anxiety and depression medication
+ Hormone replacement medication
+ Most other medications

If ever in doubt, our dedicated team of providers who specialize in sexual health are here to answer your questions and ensure your medications work together to protect you and your body.
