If you have condomless anal sex and take no precautions, you are at high risk of catching HIV. If you have HIV, it is important to know as soon as possible. There’s still time for you to reduce the harm to your body.

If you regularly have condomless anal sex without precautions, we recommend you test for HIV at least every 3 months.

You’ll be most infectious to others in the first couple of months after catching HIV. It’s thought that half of the UK’s HIV is caught from someone who has recently been infected. Starting treatment and controlling the HIV reduces the risk of passing the infection. People on effective HIV treatment cannot pass their HIV to others.

In the first few weeks after catching HIV, you may feel unwell. You might develop flu like symptoms or a body rash. If that happens to you, come and see a doctor right away. Let us know you’re feeling ill so that we can run special tests. We are here to help. Don’t have sex until you’ve been given the all clear.
