Prep

[snobbes]

After years of strugling with tight condoms I finally got around to go get PreP. Instructions said either to take 2 pills 2 hours before sex and 1 pill a day for 5 days after having sex or I could just take one pill every day. So I figured out that for me one pill a day is the best alternative for me as Im single and pretty sexually active now.. I took one pill in the morning but about 5 hourslater I felt like I was getting kinda sick and did not feel well at all so the next day i did not take it. After that I did not want to feel sick so I dropped it for a while. This week I tried to start the medication again. I took one pilll in the evening as i thought that if I should feel sick again i'll sleep it off. Woke up in the midle of the night feeling so fucking sick and spent the rest of the night in the toilet with a bucket in front of me.
So my question is: Who else here is on PreP and did any of you experience the same problems? What did you do ? Did you stop it or did the nauseousness fade evetually?

For me, nausea and the runs went away after a week or so of PrEP. For my partner, it lasted over a month. He would take the pill before bed to try to sleep through the worst of the nausea, and that helped some, but he still struggled with it. We both lost some weight on it when we started, and we'd call them our "diet pills." I found that a fiber supplement helped me a bit with the loose stool. I've also heard of guys trying immodium for a while until their body becomes accustomed to the medication. Good luck, man! I hope you give us an update in a month.

Ill give you an update already now. Beeing that sick is not OK and I will probably stick to XL condoms

I have had no problems with sickness with Prep but partners feels a bit queasy for a day or so after starting. Main issue I have found is I take much longer to cum to the point sometimes just give up.
