A member asked:

I am having sex with hiv/aids, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inform your partner: If you have HIV and are having sex, you must inform your partner beforehand. If you are not under treatment, get treatment asap as reduction in viral load reduces transmission. Use barrier protection at all times. See this site for more info and discuss the matter with your doctor. http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/transmission.html.
