One Size Doesn’t Fit All: A PrEP Conversation

One Size Doesn’t Fit All: A PrEP Conversation

Author: Commonwealth Club of California May 7, 2026 Duration: 54:36
Join us at Commonwealth Club World Affairs for an intimate and candid conversation with patients from Osra Medical who are living proof that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to PrEP.  Our panelists—currently on Descovy, Apretude and Yeztugo—will pull back the curtain on their personal journeys: the questions they asked, the factors they weighed, and what ultimately led them to choose the option that was right for them. From the first conversation with their provider to navigating day-to-day life on their medication, they’ll share the unfiltered reality of what it looks like to make an empowered prevention decision.  Whether you’re newly exploring PrEP, considering switching options, or simply want to hear from people who’ve been in your shoes, this panel is designed to inform, inspire and remind you that your prevention journey is yours to shape. This program is made possible by the support of Osra Medical. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
