Hi there. Drinking detox tea should not affect your injectable contraceptive method at all, and it should be active by now in your system, since we always recommend you wait or use additional barrier contraceptives like condoms during the first 7 days after starting your contraceptive method. Remember that the contraceptive method only prevents pregnancies, and additional use of condoms is always advised to protect against STIs, including HIV.

PEP ( Post Exposure Prophylaxis) is HIV prevention medication, which is taken for 28 days after the exposure to HIV. We always advise that you use protection such as condoms, should you engage in sexual activity while on treatment, and for at least 6 weeks after the initial exposure. Please be safe, and ask your partner to to see a health care worker within 72hrs after your own consensual sexual encounter, and receive the necessary treatment.

Hey there. PEP ( Post Exposure Prophylaxis) is HIV prevention medication, which is taken for 28 days after the exposure to HIV.

Especially if this is not a regular pattern of changing times. But if you do forget again, drink it as soon as you remember, it will still work to decrease the chances of acquiring HIV from the initial exposure. Remember, PEP is for post exposure of 1 incident.

Hi, thank you for sending in your question.  I can tell that you are very stressed, I want to reassure you that it is not the end of the world, and that you will be alright regardless of what happens.   Unfortunately the answer is that there is always a chance of getting HIV through sexual fluids (semen or from the vagina), if the other person has HIV.  In this situation if either your male friend or the female sex worker had HIV then there is a chance that you could get it.  The chance is very low, so I don’t want you to beat yourself up about it, most likely you did not get HIV from this one encounter.  However I would recommend that you get an HIV test in about 6 weeks time.  If this ever happens again I would suggest taking post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) immediately or as soon as possible afterwards.  PEP is ARV tablets which you take for a month and can prevent you from getting HIV if you had sexual contact with someone with HIV.  PEP unfortunately does not work if it is taken more than 72 hours after the contact, so you are too late now.  PEP works best if it is taken as soon as possible (in the first few hours).

For the future I would suggest either knowing the HIV status of your sexual partners, using condoms, not wiping with the same cloth, taking PEP immediately afterwards, or using PrEP, which is pre-exposure prophylaxis.  PrEP is 1 tablet which you take everyday for at least a week before you have sexual contact with someone with HIV or of unknown HIV status.  You can take PrEP for as long as you want, a few months or a few years.  In order to get PEP or PrEP you need to go to a doctor or a nurse at your local clinic and ask them about it.  You will need to have a blood test and an HIV test done before you take them.  Please remember that PrEP only prevents HIV and not other STIs and pregnancy, so condoms are always advised.  And also remember that no prevention methods are 100% effective but they are up to 99% effective if used correctly.  

The good news I have for you is that, your risk is very low after just this one encounter, but if you do happen to become HIV positive it really is not the end of the world.  We have extremely good treatment for HIV which means that you would only need to take 1 tablet a day and you will never get AIDS and you can live a completely normal life with normal life expectancy (i.e. you will not die any sooner than you would have, and you will not get any other illnesses because of the HIV), as long as you take that 1 tablet a day and your HIV viral load is suppressed.  If people take their ARVs everyday and have a suppressed viral load it also means that they will not transmit HIV to their sexual partner. 

So please do go in to your local clinic to get tested for HIV and start treatment as soon as possible if you are positive.  If you are negative please look into all the options available in order to stay negative.  If you are feeling very stressed and need to talk to someone please go to your local clinic or call someone for help.  If you have any other questions or need help, you are welcome to call our Right to Care HIV helpline on 0829576698.   You can send a please call me and we will call you back free of charge.  I wish you all the best. 

Hi there. There may be several reasons why you are experiencing the pain in your genitals, such as occasional twisting of your testicle, or a sprain etc. Google is not always the best way to self-diagnose.

I do not recommend self-medication at this point, since this is a recurring pain. But don’t panic, it is definitely not necessarily cancer.

Hi there,  Microval and HY-AN are progestogen only contraception pills.  Progesterone is a hormone which develops the endometrium (lining) of the uterus (womb) and prevents further ovulation, so these tablets must be taken every day without any breaks (and usually at the same time every day).  Once the tablets are stopped, the endometrial lining will deteriorate and bleeding will occur and then the ovulation cycle will start again.  Microval and HY-AN are mainly used as contraceptive methods in the post partum period (after a lady has given birth) as they do not interfere with breastfeeding.  The combined oral contraceptive pills should not be taken in the first 6 months after giving birth as they can interfere with breastfeeding.  Other post-partum contraception options include intrauterine devices such as the copper T or Minerva and progestogen only injections such as depo provera.   None of these methods of contraception prevent against STIs and HIV.
