| Summary: | Many challenges persist beyond achievements on HIV prevention and care. This article discusses results of a study that interviewed 250 men living with HIV who have sex with women and their perception of reproductive health care, compared to studies among positive women. 43% of men and 17-20% of women want to have children, most significantly the childless. 85% of men have sex and the level of reproduction knowledge and being HIV positive is low. Despite the technology that allowed parenthood without infecting one's partner and children, results show low attention and respect, even in the golden standard centers investigated. The authors suggest as a key aspect of the training and programming related to HIV prevention and care: the ethical and constitutional obligation of promoting and protecting reproductive rights, challenging stigma anti-family associated to HIV and criticizing essencialists' notions about family and gender as having a universal and " natural" definition. |
