If this happened in the last 72 hours you can consider PEP - pills you can take after sex that may stop an HIV infection.
The soonest you can test for HIV is 2-4 weeks after a risk event (e.g. unprotected sex) and you will be asked to test again 12 weeks after the event. Find out more about the window period.
For the best care while using PrEP, we recommend testing for HIV with your prescribing doctor or local sexual health clinic who should also be testing you for other STIs and kidney function.
For the best care after PEP, we recommend testing for HIV with your prescribing doctor or local sexual health clinic as you will need a blood draw.
