Pardon my puritanism, but this seems like an awful lot to put your body through to get your rocks off and engage in this sort of indulgence.

The vaccines are just common sense for everybody. If you’re worried about “putting your body through” vaccines I suggest asking yourself what exact biological consequence you are afraid of. PrEP blocks HIV’s transcription to DNA so that it can’t take hold - it is cleared by your kidneys like a zillion other molecules in your body. DoxyPEP is the most broad acting, and least popular, item on the list.
