Preferences and willingness for starting daily, on-demand, and long-acting injectable HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis among transfeminine persons in the US, 2022–2023
Among transfeminine persons, the highest willingness was reported for on-demand PrEP; and LA PrEP was ranked the most preferred option among those who reported willingness to try multiple options. Offering a variety of PrEP options, informed by an understanding of individual preferences and socio-demographic and behavioral differences, can increase overall PrEP uptake and help meet diverse needs of the transfeminine community.
