Are condoms enough to protect me from HIV?

Condoms are able to protect you from HIV and other STD’s in 97% of the cases, PrEP was proved to work in 92-99% of cases in clinical trials.

PrEP can protect you from HIV throughout an antiviral effect due to the high concentrations of the drug in the blood/tissue barriers (anal, vaginal).

Condoms provide non-specific mechanic protection. In other words, they prevent body liquid exchange. This prevents HIV infection. Furthermore, this mechanic barrier can prevent other sexually transmitted diseases. Among these diseases are Syphilis Gonorrhea, mycoplasma, and more.

Therefore, Condoms provide wider protection. PrEP is HIV specific.
