Getting youth PrEPared: adolescent consent laws and implications for the availability of PrEP among youth in countries outside of the United States

Introduction Youth under the age of 25 are at high risk for HIV infection. While pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has the potential to curb new infections within this population, it is unclear how country‐specific laws and policies that govern youth access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services impact access to PrEP. The purpose of this review was to analyse laws and policies concerning PrEP implementation and SRH services available to youth in countries with a high HIV incidence. To the best of our knowledge this is the first systematic assessment of country‐level policies that impact the availability of PrEP to adolescent populations.
