Fertility Desire and Reproductive Health Education Needs of WLWHIV.

      Аннотация: The increased use of antiretroviral drugs across Africa has led to great improvements in both quality of life and life expectancy of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). For those whose health has been restored, their concerns are shifting from ill-health and medications to achieving full integration into communities and living a productive life, including having children. Many women living with HIV desire having children but have an unmet need for contraception, counseling on pregnancy planning, addressing infertility and information about sexuality (Reproductive Health Education), among other needs. This study aimed at determining whether HIV positive women attending an HIV treatment Clinic in Cameroon desire having children so as to improve the sexual and reproductive health messages and services provided to them.
