What is the process for obtaining prep? will it protect against infection via oral sex/swallowing? thanks?

Talk to your primary care doc. Make sure you understand limited role of Prep as only preventing HIV, while all other STD’s remain possible as far as transmission. Use of mechanical protection remains best and recommended for use in sexual activities with individuals of unknown status.
