My doctor hasn’t heard of PrEP or doesn't know a lot about it. Are there any resources that can help me communicate with my doctor about this?

Yes, there are!

How Do I Talk to My Provider about PrEP? gives guidelines, based on US CDC (Centers for Disease Control) recommendations, to help you know what to ask and what to say when you speak to your doctor or healthcare provider about starting PrEP.

If your healthcare provider is unfamiliar with PrEP, there are resources specifically for doctors and healthcare providers. You can share these resources with your healthcare provider if they need more information.
