Can gay men give blood?
Gay and bisexual men are not automatically prevented from giving blood.
Men who acquire sex with men and who have had the identical partner for 3 months or more and meet our other eligibility criteria are able to give blood.
Anyone who has had anal sex with a recent partner or multiple partners in the last three months, regardless of their gender or their partner’s gender, must wait 3 months before donating.
We check your eligibility to present blood based solely on your own individual experiences, making the process fairer for everyone.
If you are taking pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) you will be unable to give blood. If you stop taking PrEP or PEP, you will need to wait 3 months before you can give blood.
We appreciate that any deferral is disappointing if you want to save lives by giving blood.
If you have previously been unable to provide blood because of the guidelines and would prefer to donate, please summon us on 0300 123 23 23. One of our team can review the new guidelines with you and, if eligible, book your next appointment.

Clinical in Having unprotected penetrative sex is the most likely way to pass on a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Using a condom helps protect against HIV and lowers the risk of getting many other STIs. If you’re a man having sex with men (MSM), without condoms and with someone new, you should hold an STI and HIV evaluate every 3 months, otherwise, it should be at least once a year. This can be done at a sexual health clinic (SHC) or genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic. This is crucial, as some STIs do not cause any symptoms.
