A member asked:
Is it safe to have sex with my partner if he's hiv+ and we use condoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but treat too: If the condoms are used properly and don't break, it's very safe. But it's even safer if he has an undetectable viral load on HIV medication. Hiv -infected people with hiv-negative sex partners should always be on treatment.
