In this analysis of a real-world PrEP implementation programme in Kenya, we found four distinct patterns of PrEP continuation, with one-third of users exhibiting consistent high continuation throughout 12 months and two-fifths with immediate discontinuation patterns. These data may help guide tailored interventions to support PrEP continuation in this setting.
