My partner is positive, I’m negative. He’s been on treatment for a while and his viral load is undetectable, can we have kids? Will I be at risk of getting infected?

Thanks for getting in touch.

Yes you can have kids, the status of your partner isn’t an issue. Your partner is undetectable, therefore there’s no risk to you. Please see Q’s 6, 9 and 14 here: https://i-base.info/qa/what-are-the-most-asked-questions
