There is no injection to prevent HIV. your right about that sorta, you can get a day after pill, it's also one of the most popular antiviral meds on the market today. It's called Truvada. I've been on Truvada since the early 2000's. I have been HIV, AIDS since testing positive in October of 1990.
There is no HIV shot.
The only 100% reliable way to make sure you or your partner do not get pregnant is abstinence. If you chose to have sex anyway, then you should make sure you use some method of birth control, such as condoms or birth control tablets. Please remember that the use of birth control tablets DOES NOT protect against STDs!
Practice abstinence.
Abstaining from sexual activity is the only 100% effective method of preventing STDs because it is the only method for which all sexual contact is avoided. If you do not have contact sexually, you cannot get the STD. All the other methods involve some type of sexual contact so none is 100% effective.
It's important so you don't get STDs (Sexually transmitted diseases).
They say abstinence is best for prevention of STDs: Stay away! The same goes for poisonous snakes--Watch your step and keep your distance. Beware-Some snakes can spit venom in to your eyes.

No, but you are playing Russian Roullette if you choose not to. Remember, the condom is not only to prevent pregnancy, but also to protect against STDs.
No its not. But that does not mean that everyone that attends is STD free. That's why its better to be SAFE then SORRY. Or you can participate in ABSTINENCE.
birth control methods ********* Actually- abstinence means not having sex. That doesn't mean that you can't ever stay 'sex-less' forever, however. Usually this means not until marriage. You benefit from abstinence by not having to suffer with the consequences- Pregnancy, STDS ( sexually transmitted diseases), etc.
It is not necessary to use a backup method of birth control or extra protection after the first 7 days of using NuvaRing. However, always keep in mind that NuvaRing only protects against unwanted pregnancy and does not protect against STDs. Condoms are suggested for protection against STDs.
Spermicidal lubricant doesn't protect against STDS like HIV or gonorrhea, first of all. Spermical lube makes things slippery and kills 90% of sperm.
