About PackMap

Clear, shame-free sexual health guidance for gay and bisexual men.

Designed for mobile, and built for your privacy.

Who this is for

PackMap was built to fill a specific gap: direct, actionable sexual health education for gay and bisexual men who have sex with men. When resources try to cover every population and anatomy, the most practical advice often gets buried. Our narrow focus lets us deliver clear, specific guidance on PrEP, testing, risk reduction, and the realities of gay and bi male sexual practices.

This guidance is built around cis male anatomy. For excellent trans-affirming sexual health resources tailored to trans men and trans women, we recommend the Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) Trans and Non-binary Sexual Health Guide.

Our clinical scope

Our medical guidance is calibrated specifically for penile and rectal biology — tissue absorption, pH balance, natural flora, infection patterns, and how these systems respond to lube, PrEP, DoxyPEP, and common STIs. Staying strictly within this scope allows us to give fast, accurate, no-fluff recommendations without burying you in caveats.

Our editorial process

You deserve health information you can trust. Every article is reviewed against the latest clinical guidelines (including BASHH, ECDC, and WHO) before publication. Because health recommendations evolve, we evolve with them—whenever official guidance changes, we revise the relevant articles within 30 days. You will always see a "last updated" date on every page so you know you're reading current information.

Trust, transparency, & privacy

Your health is personal, and your data is yours alone. PackMap operates with a strict privacy-first approach. We don't want your data, and we don't track it.

The only things stored on your device are your language preference, your theme setting, and your offline article cache. This information never leaves your phone, and you can wipe it completely at any time by going to Settings → Clear All Data.
