How does one with HIV have sex?

like if they are having sex with somebody who isnt positive what steps do they take to keep it that way? im just curious.

condoms are almost 100% effective to prevent HIV transmission, so mixed status couples (one person is HIV+ the other is HIV-) who have sex don't transfer it to each other, protection must be used at all times.

i notice people like giving me a thumbs down, i get all my facts and information for M.D's if you think my facts are wrong, go take it to the doctors at webmd and medhelp and see what they have to say and tell them that they're wrong, you will be put to shame, dont' come on here feeding people misleading information, and it's obvious that the people that are giving me bad ratings are idiots themselves, and don't know what they're talking about.

Risky Business!

If they have HIV...and have ONE partner...That partner has already been exposed to the virus.
But they still take precautions...CONDOMS!

comdoms/dental dams

They can have sex like any normal individual. They just have to take extra steps to stop the spread of the virus. Wearing a condom & non-exchange of bodily fluids should be observed at all times. Contrary to popular beliefs, kissing does not spread the virus. You'd need more than a gallon of saliva to be able to spread it. Monogamy is the best practice still.

condoms. but even if you have oral sex still use a condom.
