This thesis presents an anthropological analysis on the Medical Prophylaxis of AIDS, in particular, the HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP). Regarding this studied object, our framework falls on hegemonic narratives concerning this mode of sexual prevention and its underlying notions of subject as well as the respective technology s fundamental ideologies. In this sense, such technology is defined as a new preventive solution for HIV infection. To achieve our conclusions, we undertake a documental analysis of international guidelines and policies from WHO and UNAIDS toward global adoption of PrEP, along with the Brazilian protocol. In addition, we conducted interviews with key actors who have performed a role in PrEP s implementation process in Brazil. Within the scope of HIV prophylaxis choice and legitimation strategies, we show the exacerbating as we conclude role played by the contemporary individualism. With specific notions of autonomy, risk control, and sexuality management at the core of it, this phenomenon occurs in the context of biomedicalization of the Aids epidemic at the expense of central assumptions in the preventive discourses.
