This is particularly concerning for men have sex with men (MSM), as they are disproportionately affected by HIV. Interpersonal factors, especially the perspectives of sexual partners living with HIV, influence the use of PrEP for MSM without HIV. Therefore, understanding how MSM with HIV (MSMWH) perceive their HIV-negative sexual partners\u2019 use of PrEP can have important implications for HIV prevention efforts. The present study sought to understand MSMWH\u2019s attitudes about and outcome expectancies of their sexual partners\u2019 PrEP use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 30 MSMWH in South Carolina, US, focused on perceptions of PrEP use for their HIV-negative partners. Interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim. An inductive, interpretive, conventional content analysis approach with two coders was used.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, most participants viewed PrEP positively as an option for their HIV-negative partners. Reasons for these perceptions included that their partners\u2019 PrEP use would enhance sexual security, minimize uncertainty and strengthen relationships. Primary hesitancies about HIV-negative partners\u2019 use of PrEP included concerns around side-effects, distrust due to the Truvada lawsuit, and continued sexually transmitted infection and HIV risks.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The present study highlights the nuanced perspectives of MSMWH on the use of PrEP for HIV-negative partners.
