How effective is PrEP with the medicine Tenvir-EM?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Pre-exposure prophylaxis does not build immunity against HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). It only attempts to kill any of the viruses that enter your body during any such exposure. Also, pre-exposure prophylaxis is available only through prescription. You must take the drug daily until there is continued high-risk behavior and not miss any pills. A combination of Tenofovir and Emtricitabine is the preferred choice and provides 99 % protection.

I understand your concern. It is better to start at least one day before. There are no ointments, but you could use a condom.

You have not attached any report. Kindly attach the appropriate report.

HSV (herpes simplex virus), IgM (immunoglobulin M), or IgG (immunoglobulin G), which one is positive?

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Have gone through your report (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). IgG for HSV is positive, which suggests that there was an infection in the past for which your body has developed immunity. IgG are protective antibodies and will help to prevent future infections. There is no treatment required unless you have any active symptoms of herpes.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Herpes is a common infection, and most people develop immunity to it in their lifetime. Herpes can affect the genitals and oral cavity usually. However, in rare cases, it can even occur at sites of contact with the infected area. The major issue with herpes is recurrent episodes, which require early initiation of treatment. Prevention of the spread of herpes requires proper usage of a condom. You can participate in sexual activities with IgG-positive herpes patients as they are non-infective and have developed immunity. With regards to IgG number, the more, the better.

I understand your concern.

IgG is positive, which suggests immunity has developed. You can participate in protected sexual activity if there are no active blisters over the genitals or oral cavity.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. If there are no active lesions, then it means there is no contagious infection, and test results suggest you developed immunity. So there will not be any spread of infection. Always use a condom.

You are welcome.
