  • 1.  Prep after vaginoplasty

    Wondering what everyone uses for PrEP after vaginoplasty (besides Truvada)? Or if anyone knows of studies done in transgender woman post vaginoplasty?

    Hi Victoria,

      Both Truvada and Apretude are currently approved for HIV prevention for those at risk through receptive vaginal intercourse.

    Unfortunately studies have not broken out Trans patients with functional neo vaginas . 
    I had  one pt develop cancer in their neo vagina.With that said Prep should work and be recommended.
    but data would be nice.

    Hi Hunter!  

    Even if these numbers were made available, I would think that it would not be a large enough cohort to make any definitive conclusions.  Hope all is well.
