&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A New Chapter in HIV Awareness&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;There was a time when even hearing the word &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/hiv-clinic-malaysia&quot;&gt;HIV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; caused fear and silence. People avoided testing, hid their status, and carried the weight of stigma alone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;But science &amp;mdash; and courage &amp;mdash; have changed everything.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Today, with consistent treatment and preventive care, HIV no longer defines who you are or how you live. People once afraid to love now do so freely, safely, and confidently &amp;mdash; thanks to one powerful truth: &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;And for those who are HIV-negative, &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; offers protection and peace of mind. Together, U=U and PrEP are rewriting what it means to live healthy, love openly, and stay in control.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We accept &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/contact-us&quot;&gt;Walk-ins&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/booking&quot;&gt;Appointment&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Does U=U Mean?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is a key approach in HIV prevention and part of a global, community-driven health movement. It means that when a person living with HIV takes their medication daily and maintains an undetectable viral load, they cannot pass HIV to their sexual partner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;This is not a hopeful theory &amp;mdash; it&amp;rsquo;s proven medical fact.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Global studies such as &lt;em&gt;PARTNER 2&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;HPTN 052&lt;/em&gt; confirmed zero HIV transmissions among couples when the HIV-positive partner&amp;rsquo;s viral load was undetectable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What &amp;ldquo;Undetectable&amp;rdquo; Means&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Viral load is &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;below 200 copies/mL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; in blood tests.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Requires &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;consistent antiretroviral therapy (ART)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;regular monitoring&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Protects both personal health and sexual partners.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;When viral suppression is achieved and sustained, transmission risk drops to zero. That&amp;rsquo;s what makes &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;U=U one of the most powerful truths in modern medicine&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why U=U Matters in Melaka&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;In Damansara, stigma and misinformation still discourage many from getting tested or starting treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;U=U challenges that fear with science &amp;mdash; showing that people living with HIV can enjoy full, healthy, and loving relationships.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Benefits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Breaks stigma:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Replaces fear with understanding and compassion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Encourages early testing:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Knowing treatment works motivates more people to check their status.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Strengthens trust:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Couples can build intimacy without fear when viral suppression is maintained.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/&quot;&gt;PULSE Clinic Damansara&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; continues to champion the U=U message &amp;mdash; creating safe, confidential, and inclusive spaces for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Is PrEP and How Does It Work?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/hiv-prep-in-malaysia&quot;&gt;Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is a daily or event-based medication that protects HIV-negative individuals from contracting HIV. It contains medicines that block the virus from establishing an infection in the body.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;When taken correctly, PrEP reduces the risk of HIV transmission from sex by &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;over 99%&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and by at least &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;74%&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; among people who inject drugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who Should Consider PrEP in Melaka&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;You may benefit from PrEP if you:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Have a regular partner living with HIV (in a serodifferent relationship)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Have sexual contact with more than one partner&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Do not use &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/condom-broke-in-malaysia-get-emergency-pep&quot;&gt;condoms&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; consistently&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Are involved in sexual activities that may increase exposure risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Use injectable substances or share injection equipment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Work, study, or travel in areas where HIV prevalence is higher&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;PrEP offers control &amp;mdash; not just protection. It lets you take charge of your sexual health confidently and privately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;How to Take PrEP in Melaka&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Daily PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Take &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;one tablet every day&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, ideally at the same time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Protection builds after:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;- 7 days&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for anal sex&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;- 21 days&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for vaginal sex or injection drug use&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Continue daily while at risk of exposure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Daily PrEP suits those with regular sexual activity or who prefer ongoing protection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. On-Demand (Event-Based) PrEP &amp;mdash; &amp;ldquo;2-1-1 Method&amp;rdquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;For individuals who have sex occasionally and can plan ahead:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Take &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2 tablets&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 2&amp;ndash;24 hours before sex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Take &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1 tablet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 24 hours after the first dose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Take&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;1 tablet&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;48 hours after the first dose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;If sex continues on multiple days, take one tablet every 24 hours until two days after the last sexual exposure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Note: On-demand PrEP is currently best supported for anal sex; daily dosing is preferred for vaginal exposure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Injectable PrEP (Cabotegravir/Apretude&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/cabotegravir-apretude-injectable-hiv-prep-in-malaysia-kuala-lumpur-penang-damansara&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Injectable PrEP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is another effective option for HIV prevention in Malaysia. It contains &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;cabotegravir&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, a long-acting medication that offers protection without daily pills.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Given as an intramuscular injection by a healthcare provider.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;The first 2 doses are given &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1 month apart&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, followed by &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;one injection every 2 months&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;No need to take pills between injections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Studies show injectable PrEP (cabotegravir) is even more effective than daily oral PrEP when taken as scheduled &amp;mdash; reducing the risk of HIV by more than &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;99%&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Starting PrEP: What to Expect&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Confirm that you are &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HIV-negative&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; through a simple blood test.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Check your &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;kidney function&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and overall health.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Screen for &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/pcr-dna-testing-for-men-women-std-testing&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;sexually transmitted infections (STIs)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;hepatitis B&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Once you begin, you&amp;rsquo;ll have a follow-up visit about &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;every 3 months&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;These visits help your doctor:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Repeat your HIV test&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Refill your medication&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Check for any side effects or health changes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Offer support to help you stay on track&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;table&gt;

&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What it means&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis&lt;/em&gt; &amp;mdash; medicine taken &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;before possible exposure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; to HIV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Post-Exposure Prophylaxis&lt;/em&gt; &amp;mdash; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/hiv-pep&quot;&gt;medicine taken &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;after possible exposure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; to HIV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When it&amp;rsquo;s taken&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Before exposure (daily or on-demand)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Within &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;72 hours after&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; possible exposure, continued for &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;28 days&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who it&amp;rsquo;s for&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;People who are HIV-negative and may be at ongoing risk (e.g., multiple partners, partner with HIV, inconsistent condom use)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;People who are HIV-negative but may have had a one-time exposure (e.g., unprotected sex, needle injury, or assault)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How effective is it?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Reduces risk of HIV by &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;over 99%&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; when taken consistently&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Highly effective if started quickly and taken for the full 28 days&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;U=U + PrEP = Confidence and Freedom&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;U=U empowers those living with HIV to live fully without fear.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;PrEP empowers HIV-negative individuals to stay protected on their own terms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Together, they mark a turning point &amp;mdash; where &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;knowledge replaces stigma&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;protection replaces fear&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;These medical breakthroughs aren&amp;rsquo;t just about prevention &amp;mdash; they&amp;rsquo;re about &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;freedom, dignity, and self-care&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Health is Freedom. Testing is Courage. Treatment is Hope.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;If you&amp;rsquo;re ready to learn more or start PrEP, you may &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;walk in&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/booking&quot;&gt;book a confidential consultation at PULSE Clinic in Damansara&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About U=U and PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Can I stop using condoms if I&amp;rsquo;m on PrEP or my partner is undetectable?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;You may choose to, but condoms remain useful for preventing other STIs and unplanned pregnancies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; What if I miss a PrEP dose?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Take it as soon as you remember. Occasional missed doses may slightly reduce protection, so aim for consistency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Does PrEP have side effects?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Most people tolerate PrEP well. Mild nausea or fatigue can occur at first and usually resolves quickly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Can I use PrEP while my partner is undetectable?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Yes &amp;mdash; combining PrEP and U=U offers maximum protection and peace of mind, especially in new relationships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Can women take PrEP?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000;&quot;&gt;Yes. &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.my/prep-for-women-in-malaysia&quot;&gt;PrEP is safe and effective for women&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. For vaginal exposure, daily PrEP should be taken for at least 21 days before full protection is achieved. If exposure has already happened, PEP may be recommended instead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
