Pregnancy Prevention. Many HIV positive women are not properly protecting themselves from unintended pregnancy. One study found that only 19% of HIV positive women reported planning their current pregnancy and 68% were using no or inconsistent contraception when they became pregnant (Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 2014). At least half of pregnancies may be unintended in HIV positive women (Loutfy et al., 2012; Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 2014). One study showed that as many as 77% of HIV positive women were utilizing condoms as their primary form of contraception before conceiving (Xxxxxx et al., 2004). Similarly, an older study found that approximately 70% of HIV positive women with unplanned pregnancies reported using condoms prior to conception (Xxxxx et al., 1999). Preventing unintended pregnancies is critical for women living with HIV. In all women, unintended pregnancy is associated with low-birth weight infants and pre-term birth as well as later initiation of prenatal care (Xxx, Xxxxx, & Xxxxxx, 2008; Xxxx et al., 2011). Pregnant HIV positive women currently on highly active antiretroviral therapy are at increased risk of pre-term birth, low birth weight, and stillbirth, and in all HIV positive women unintended pregnancy increases the risk mother to child transmission of HIV (Xxxxx et al., 2009; Xxxxxx, Stover, Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, & Xxxxxxx, 2009; Xxxxxx et al., 2014; Xxxxxxxx et al., 2007). The increased risks associated with unintended pregnancy, especially for HIV positive women on highly active antiretroviral therapy, make it imperative that they are able to protect themselves from unintended pregnancy through dual methods. Summary Dual method use ensures that HIV positive women can have safe, healthy, and planned pregnancies as well as protection from unwanted sexually transmitted infections. Not only does dual method use protect HIV positive women it also protects their sexual partners and potential children, which translates into millions of dollars saved per year and avoidance of the physical and social costs of STIs and unintended pregnancy.
