Living with HIV: Your Guide to Health and Wellness

Treatment and Prevention

Antiretroviral Therapy (ART)

This daily medication stops HIV from multiplying in your body. Modern ART is highly effective, helping people with HIV live long, healthy lives by reducing the amount of virus in your blood to undetectable levels.

Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)

PrEP is a preventive medication that helps protect HIV-negative individuals from contracting HIV. It's particularly important for people with HIV-positive partners or those at higher risk of exposure.

HIV Discordant Couples

When one partner has HIV and the other doesn't, you're considered a discordant couple. With proper treatment and prevention strategies, discordant couples can maintain healthy relationships while preventing HIV transmission.
