4worldlovers: HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a human virus that breaks down the immune system. The virus penetrates the white blood cells, which form part of your immune system and help combat infections.

Through these white blood cells, HIV can reproduce rapidly and ultimately even destroy the blood cells. This lowers your resistance, making you more susceptible to other viruses and bacteria. If you are not treated, HIV can be life-threatening. With good medication, HIV is treatable.

HIV is a virus that is transmitted through the mucous membranes, sperm and blood:

The HIV treatment centre has its own vision on HIV care. People with HIV can nowadays live long and healthy lives. With expert and committed nurses and internists, you create a treatment that suits you.

We look further than just HIV. That is why we like to talk openly about all aspects of life associated with growing old healthily. Thanks to our unique collaboration with Amsterdam UMC, GPs and other partners, we can offer broad support.

We offer as much care as possible under one roof. The HIV treatment centre has its own laboratory where blood can be sampled. You will also find integrated care here for HIV-related conditions, like hepatitis or AIN. There is also a pharmacy in the building.

At the HIV treatment centre, prevention, testing and treatment are offered.

You can make an appointment with us for PrEP medication, a HIV rapid test and HIV treatment. Are you a HIV patient at DC Clinics? You can also turn to them for other care concerning hepatitis, vaccinations and AIN. You can make an appointment anonymously for an STD test.

PrEP is a prophylaxis measure to protect you against HIV infection. Experience has shown that PrEP use reduces the anxiety about HIV and positively affects the experience of sexuality. The HIV treatment centre feels that PrEP use requires careful medical supervision.

The HIV treatment centre has various vaccines available. Some are particularly recommended for people with HIV. We discuss during the consultations which vaccinations are needed and can administer the vaccinations if needed and desired.

The HIV treatment centre offers integrated HIV/STD care. You can always be tested for STDs, even if you do not have any symptoms. That can be done during a normal consultation, or you can turn to us between appointments. If you are diagnosed with an STD, we can prescribe medicines for it. Even people who are not registered as a patient with us can come for an STD test (anonymously if desired).

At the HIV treatment centre, you can take a free HIV rapid test (anonymously if desired) immediately. When making an appointment, your first name and telephone number are sufficient. The entire study, with preparation and follow-up consultations, takes about half an hour in total. Upon request, you can have a paper printout of the result.

HIV cannot be cured, but it can be treated. With a successful medical treatment, your life expectancy is good. Our HIV treatment centre offers a HIV treatment that fits in your daily life. We also offer supervision for a healthy and happy life with HIV.

Hepatitis is a very contagious virus that you can catch during unsafe sex. There is no treatment for hepatitis A, that infection resolves itself. Hepatitis B and C must be treated, though. Without treatment these forms lead to severe liver failure and even hepatic cancer.

AIN means a change in the mucous membrane in and around the anus. Abnormal cells in the mucous membrane can be a precursor to anal cancer. AIN can disappear spontaneously, but the chance of that happening is probably less for HIV-positive people. At the HIV treatment centre, the AIN diagnosis is made and the treatment administered.

Growing older healthily with HIV can mean occasionally being referred to another doctor. This can be in addition to the treatment. The HIV treatment centre therefore works closely with other caregivers. With these partnerships, the HIV treatment can be harmonised better with the other treatments.

During the appointment, we will check the duration of your pregnancy with an abdominal ultrasound examination.

A medical abortion is a termination of pregnancy caused by medicines. These medicines, mifepristone and misoprostol, cause the expulsion of the pregnancy from the uterus.

Mifepristone blocks the hormone progesterone, which is required to sustain a pregnancy. Without this hormone, the attachment of a fertilized egg to the uterine wall is disrupted, and the uterus contracts. Misoprostol enhances contractions and helps to expel the products of conception from the uterus.

If there are no contraindications, our doctor will provide you with mifepristone and misoprostol during your appointment.

24 hours later, put 4 tablets of misoprostol (200 mcg each) under your tongue and keep them there for 30 minutes, until the tablets are dissolved. You can swallow your saliva. After 30 minutes, you can spit out any remains of the tablets

If you prefer to use the misoprostol vaginally, put all 4 tablets as high as possible into the vagina, just like a tampon. It is easiest to do this while lying on bed. When used under your tongue, you may experience more stomach cramps than when you insert the tablets into your vagina.

The medicines cause your uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy through the vagina. You should expect bleeding and cramps. Nausea, diarrhea, and a slight increase in temperature are normal side effects of the medicines. Therefore, make sure you have someone with you who can support you or call for medical help if needed.

Mifepristone alone usually does not cause any side effects before taking misoprostol, although some women may experience light bleeding or nausea.

After using misoprostol, you should expect bleeding and cramps. Bleeding usually starts within four hours of taking the pills, but it sometimes starts later. For some people, the bleeding and cramping and other side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, and hot flashes or fever may occur shortly after taking misoprostol.

Bleeding is often the first sign that the abortion has begun. If the abortion continues, bleeding and cramps become more severe. Bleeding is often heavier than a normal menstruation, and it is normal to have clots. The longer the pregnancy has developed, the heavier the cramps and the bleeding will be. If the abortion is complete, the bleeding and the cramps diminish. The moment of abortion can be noticed with a peak of heavier blood loss and more pain and cramps.
