WHAT PUTS YOU AT HIGHER RISK FOR HIV?
- Having unprotected (anal, oral, or vaginal) sex with someone who is HIV positive
- Having unprotected (anal, oral, or vaginal) sex with multiple partners of unknown HIV statuses
- Sharing needles and syringes used for injectable drugs
- Men having unprotected (anal) sex with men are at highest risk of acquiring HIV
Sex is a normal, healthy part of life. It should be fun and pleasurable for you and your partner. But it can also be risky if you or your partner do certain things that could spread disease or cause physical or emotional harm. The risks add up based on your behaviors.
NOT AT RISK? YOU SHOULD STILL GET ROUTINE TESTING
Risk-based Testing Vs. Routine Testing
Risk-based testing is HIV testing for those who have a higher risk of getting HIV.
Routine Testing is HIV testing for anyone who wants to be tested for HIV.
