HIV and fertility

HIV infection interferes with sexual and reproductive choices in a variety of ways, including concerns regarding sexual transmission to the uninfected partner, vertical transmission to the child, and severity of genital tract infections. There is also evidence that claims there is an increased tubal infertility and reduced ovarian reserve in HIV+ women.

As for HIV+ men, there is a common tendency for low testosterone levels and reduced semen volume and motility.

Although HIV influences the fertility of intended parents’, this is not a reason to give up on the dream of having a healthy baby. With careful planning and advanced technological enhancements, World Center of Baby guarantees the possibility of a safe and successful surrogacy journey for parents living with HIV.
