U = U · Undetectable = untransmittable
A person with HIV who maintains an undetectable viral load through effective treatment does not transmit HIV sexually. Regular treatment and monitoring are part of care.
Testing and treatment
Testing is the first step. After confirmation, a specialist prescribes antiretroviral therapy and monitors viral load and health.
Relationships, sex and children
People with HIV can have fulfilling relationships, a sex life and healthy children. Discuss pregnancy planning with your care team.
