Role of Contraception in Preventing HIV+ Births

20 Aug 2021

Meeting the contraception needs of women living with HIV (WLHIV) has primary health benefits for women, in addition to being a key element to prevent mother-to-child HIV transmission. This analysis estimates the current number of infant HIV infections prevented by contraception in the era of increased HIV treatment coverage and models the additional HIV benefits of preventing unintended births to WLHIV. It concludes that broad contraceptive availability, increased contraceptive voluntarism and method mix are key components to preventing unintended births and ending new infant HIV infections worldwide. It is a useful resource for program implementers. Click here to read the study.
