You can't. the only thing you can do is be careful to avoid contracting it. Always practice safe sex and only have sex with partners you know and trust; don't do intravenous drugs, or at least use a fresh, sterile needle every time; make sure you use reputable providers if you need to use any medical product derived from blood or blood serum.

Yes! HIV can be prevented within the first few days after infection. It is important for anyone knowing they might have been exposed to HIV to seek immediate medical treatment. There is a treatment called Post Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) that can be started. PEP is essentially high doses of HIV medications. If started within the first 72 hours after exposure it can be effective.
I hope that I am interpreting the wording of this question correctly. Please do not hesitate to send a follow-up question if necessary. Prophylaxis can refer to several things as it relates to HIV infection. The definition of prophylaxis is "a measure designed to preserve health." Condoms are considered a prophylaxis for HIV infection. They help prevent the spread of the virus by restricting the transfer of infected body fluid during sex. PEP (Post Exposure Prophylaxis) is used when a patient is suspected of having been exposed to HIV. PEP consists of prescribing hefty doses of HIV medications within 72 hours of exposure to prevent HIV infection.

If you are referring to one week after exposure to the virus - most likely not. The AIDS virus generally will first appear as HIV + status which can take six months from exposure to develop, there are excellent antiviral cocktails that can be used along with a healthy lifestyle to prevent HIV from going into full blown AIDS.
Circumcision does NOT prevent HIV and AIDS.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a preventive strategy for individuals at high risk of HIV infection, involving the daily use of antiretroviral medication to reduce the likelihood of acquiring the virus. In contrast, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is an emergency treatment initiated within 72 hours after potential HIV exposure, typically involving a 28-day course of antiretroviral drugs to prevent infection. While PrEP is a proactive approach for ongoing risk, PEP is reactive and meant for specific instances of exposure.

Post-Exposure Prophylaxis is used as treatment for people that have been exposed to HIV.
