摘要

Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) are disproportionately affected by HIV infection in the USA. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a proven efficacious biomedical prevention strategy with the potential to alter significantly the course of the epidemic in this population. However, the social stigma attached to PrEP and those who use it may act as a barrier to the uptake and continuation of PrEP among high-risk BMSM. In-depth, semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 26 BMSM PrEP users to explore their experiences of stigma related to their PrEP use. BMSM reported multiple experiences or manifestations of PrEP-related stigma, which included (1) perception that PrEP users engage in elevated sexual risk behaviors; (2) conflicts in relationships attributed to PrEP; (3) experiences of discomfort or judgment from medical providers; (4) assumption that PrEP users are HIV-positive; and (5) gay stigma in families limiting PrEP disclosure. The experiences of stigma typically occur within the context of PrEP disclosure and have significant personal and social consequences for PrEP users. Efforts to address PrEP and other social-stigmas within the Black community may help facilitate PrEP uptake and continuation with BMSM.
