DoxyPEP, a.k.a. the “gay morning after pill”, set to receive CDC stamp-of-approval in preventing STIs
doxycycline can lessen the chance of contracting STIs like chlamydia, syphilis, or gonorrhea if taken within three days of unprotected sex.And while DoxyPEP was discussed at a sexual health conference back in February, health officials in the country are now moving to officially endorse it as “more tools are desperately needed” to fight against STIs. The guideline was proposed by the CDC on Monday, and will be finalized after a 45-day period for public commentary.
