Awareness, willingness to use pre-exposure prophylaxis, and use of post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention among men who have sex with men in Mexico.

About half of Mexican MSM were aware of PrEP. The majority of those aware were willing to use PrEP if available for free and many were willing to purchase PrEP at low cost. Leveraging demographic, recent healthcare use, and behavioral risk characteristics associated with awareness and willingness to use PrEP could be useful in designing future PrEP programs for MSM in Mexico. Expanding healthcare settings in which PEP is available may also support identifying candidates for PrEP and scaling up PrEP implementation.
