Good day, can I have unprotected sex while breastfeeding if me and my partner are taking meds and we are both undectable?
Answer
Hi, how are you doing?
Congratulations on having a baby.
Yes you can have sex without a condom.
As both of you are on treatment with an undetectable viral load, there is no risk of super/co-infection.
This means there is no risk to baby and it is safe to continue breastfeeding.
