PrEP is designed for any individual, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, who experiences ongoing behavioral or biological risk factors for contracting HIV. Heterosexual individuals who have partners with unknown or positive HIV statuses, those who do not consistently use barrier methods, or individuals living in areas with high local transmission rates can benefit significantly from taking PrEP. HIV does not discriminate based on sexual orientation, making personal risk exposure rather than identity the primary criteria for determining whether anyone should take the preventative medication.
