01 / Understand the window
The first question is not “do I have symptoms?”
It is: when did the possible exposure happen?
If it may have been within 72 hours, arrange an urgent assessment today.
PEP is not a home remedy or a substitute for testing. A qualified clinician must decide whether it is indicated.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is a short, prescription-only course of antiretroviral medicines considered after a possible exposure to HIV. It is designed to reduce the chance of infection establishing after an exposure, but it is not a guarantee and it does not replace medical assessment. The decision depends on the type of contact, whether potentially infectious fluid was involved, the time elapsed, the source status when known, your medical history, kidney and liver considerations, allergies, current medicines and access to follow-up testing.
Timing matters because PEP is an emergency prevention option. It is generally considered for exposures within 72 hours and is most effective when started as early as possible. If you are unsure whether the contact was risky, do not try to calculate a percentage from an online post. Share the facts privately with a clinician. Details such as a condom breaking, unprotected vaginal or anal sex, sexual assault, a needle injury or blood contacting an open wound can change the recommendation.
A negative test immediately after an exposure may not tell you whether that exposure resulted in infection, which is why clinicians often recommend baseline testing and a follow-up schedule. PEP medicines also require adherence and review. If 72 hours have passed, it is still worthwhile to speak with a doctor about testing, other sexually transmitted infections, hepatitis, prevention options and support for anxiety. You have not “missed your chance” to receive care simply because one option may no longer be appropriate.
02 / A calm roadmap
What to do after a possible exposure
The next few hours can feel loud. This simple sequence turns uncertainty into an action plan.
Contact a clinician
Call, WhatsApp or book an urgent teleconsultation. Do not wait for symptoms or reassurance from a partner.
Follow the assessment
Answer honestly. The doctor will discuss baseline tests, whether PEP is indicated and how prescriptions work.
Complete follow-up
If PEP is prescribed, take it as directed for the full course and attend the advised testing and review.
Exposure by assault, occupational injury or significant blood contact?
Seek emergency care immediately. Teleconsultation can support your next decision, but it should not delay urgent in-person treatment when needed.
03 / Clinical clarity
Why symptoms are the wrong test
Some people experience a flu-like illness after an infection; others notice nothing. Fever, rash, tiredness, sore throat, swollen glands, headache, night sweats, mouth ulcers or weight change can have many causes. They cannot confirm HIV, and their absence cannot exclude it.
A proper care plan uses timing, exposure details and appropriately timed tests — not symptom-spotting. During a consultation, you can also ask about STI screening, hepatitis assessment, condoms and future prevention. The purpose is not to label you; it is to help you make a safer decision with the information available.
Do share
Timing, type of exposure, medicines and allergies.
Do not do
Self-start someone else's medicines or wait for symptoms.
Care is based on context, not guesswork.
04 / What consultation covers
A prescription is only one part of PEP care.
Dr. Yuvraj Monga's consultation is structured to give you an answer you can act on, without unnecessary exposure of your private details.
Consultation fee
Rs. 2,000
Exposure history
A private, non-judgemental conversation about what happened, when and which fluids were involved.
Risk assessment
A clinical decision about whether PEP should be considered and what tests are relevant.
Prescription guidance
If appropriate, a clinician discusses the prescribed regimen, interactions, side effects and adherence.
28-day support
PEP is commonly prescribed as a 28-day course, with review and testing advice. Take it exactly as prescribed.
Discreet coordination
Support with confidential testing and medicine coordination where clinically appropriate and available.
Follow-up plan
Clear guidance on follow-up HIV testing and care for STI, hepatitis or anxiety concerns.
05 / When urgent advice matters
You can ask even when you are not sure it "counts."
People often seek PEP guidance after a condom break, unprotected vaginal or anal sex, a sexual assault, a needle-stick or sharps injury, needle sharing, blood contact with damaged skin or mucous membrane, or another incident that feels difficult to describe. A recent STI diagnosis or uncertainty about a partner's status may also be a reason to ask for a risk review. The clinician can explain what is and is not a meaningful exposure.
Sexual exposure
Unprotected vaginal or anal sex, condom failure, or assault should be discussed urgently. Do not delay while trying to identify symptoms.
Blood or needle contact
Needle sharing, an accidental needle-stick, or blood in an open wound needs prompt clinical assessment.
Occupational or unknown
Healthcare workers and anyone exposed to an unknown source should use emergency services where needed and arrange expert advice.
05 / When to ask about PEP
A possible exposure deserves a real risk assessment.
These situations can be reasons to ask urgently about PEP. They do not automatically mean PEP is needed: eligibility depends on the specific exposure, fluids involved, timing, source information and a clinician's assessment.
Unprotected sex
No condom, condom break or slippage. Share the timing and type of contact without fear of judgement.
Ask a clinician promptly
Sex with an unknown partner
A partner's status may be unknown. A clinician can help you assess the actual exposure rather than guess.
Ask a clinician promptly
Male-to-male sex
Inclusive, confidential care for men who have sex with men; risk depends on the contact and protection used.
Ask a clinician promptly
Anal sex
Receptive or insertive anal contact may need urgent review, especially when unprotected or with a condom failure.
Ask a clinician promptly
Sex with a commercial sex worker
A person's occupation does not determine HIV status. Discuss the specific contact, consent and protection used.
Ask a clinician promptly
Needle prick or sharps injury
Accidental occupational or community sharps injuries should be assessed urgently, especially with visible blood.
Ask a clinician promptly
Significant blood exposure
Blood contacting mucous membrane, an open wound or broken skin can warrant urgent clinical guidance.
Ask a clinician promptly
06 / PEP medication and timing
Every hour is a reason to ask sooner.
PEP is prescription-only. When a clinician decides it is appropriate, it is commonly taken for 28 days and followed by a testing plan. It is not a guarantee, and it is never a reason to self-medicate or use somebody else's tablets.

07 / Karnal access map
A city on NH-44, and a call that keeps up with you.
Karnal sits directly on NH-44, the main highway link between Delhi and Chandigarh, which makes it one of the closer Haryana cities to Delhi NCR — roughly two hours by road. But there is no separate physical PEP clinic located within Karnal. Whether you live near Kunjpura Road, Model Town, or you're simply stopped at Karnal for the night on a longer drive, the process starts the same way: a confidential phone consultation.

08 / How care is delivered
Karnal is teleconsultation-first — and Delhi NCR is a short drive away.
Karnal does not have a dedicated physical PEP clinic. Patients from the city and from nearby Taraori, Gharaunda, Ladwa, Assandh and Indri are supported through confidential phone or video consultation. Because Karnal sits on NH-44 only around two hours from Delhi, an in-person visit to one of the three Delhi NCR clinics below is also a realistic option if you would rather sit down with a doctor face to face; call ahead to plan the drive.

10 / Questions, answered
Keep the facts. Lose the panic.
If your question is not here, ask privately. A short conversation is often safer than trying to interpret a symptom list alone.
PEP, or post-exposure prophylaxis, is a short course of prescription antiretroviral medicines used after a possible HIV exposure. It is not an over-the-counter product and should be prescribed only after a clinician reviews the exposure, timing, medical history, medicines, allergies and relevant tests.
Contact a qualified clinician immediately. PEP works best when started as soon as possible and is generally considered only within 72 hours of the exposure. Do not wait for symptoms, a partner's test result or an internet search to make the decision. If you are close to the end of the window, seek urgent in-person emergency care as well as contacting us.
No. Fever, rash, sore throat, swollen glands, fatigue and other symptoms can occur with many common illnesses, and some people have no symptoms. Symptoms cannot diagnose or rule out HIV. A clinician will advise the right testing plan based on timing and exposure.
No. There is currently no physical PEP clinic in Karnal. Patients across the city are served through confidential teleconsultation. If you prefer to attend in person, Dr. Monga Medi Clinic has locations at Lajpat Nagar 4 Delhi, Dwarka Sector 9 Delhi and Galleria Tower, DLF Phase 4 Gurugram, all around a two-hour drive from Karnal via NH-44.
Dr. Yuvraj Monga takes a private history, clarifies what happened and when, assesses risk, discusses baseline tests and checks for factors that affect medicine choice. When clinically appropriate, he can provide prescription support and coordinate discreet testing or medicine access. Consultation fee is Rs. 2,000.
PEP may not be recommended after the usual 72-hour window, but you should still seek medical advice. The next steps may include testing, follow-up testing, STI or hepatitis evaluation, prevention counselling and care for anxiety. A missed window is not a reason to avoid care.
Yes. Since Karnal sits directly on NH-44, a teleconsultation can be arranged over a phone call while you continue your journey, with a prescription issued the same day; medicine can either be delivered to a Karnal address if you're stopping overnight, or coordinated for pickup further along your route.
