If I take Doxy-PEP, do I still need to get my regular screenings every 3 months?

Yes, it is still recommended and is even more important.

Screening every 3 months allows you to:

  1. Ensure the strategy is working well for you, as Doxy-PEP is not 100% effective.
  2. Quickly screen for infections not covered by Doxy-PEP (like certain strains of gonorrhea and HIV).
  3. Monitor your overall sexual health.

Doxy-PEP is a tool, not an exemption from follow-up.
