Sometimes in the heat of the most rampant passions, we make compromises when it comes to safer sex. It happens. Don’t beat yourself up about it.
But, make sure you protect yourself after the event with PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis). Get to your sexual health clinic as soon as possible. And by this, we mean no later than 72 hours after you think you’ve been exposed to HIV.
A course of PEP lasts for four weeks, and it’ll stop HIV from replicating.
