Popis: | Pregnancy rates were compared before and after HIV diagnosis according to geographical origin (sub-Saharan Africa versus Europe) among 533 HIV-infected women followed in the French SEROCO/SEROGEST cohorts between 1988 and 1996. Among European women, the incidence of deliveries and terminations decreased, respectively, by nearly twofold and fourfold after HIV diagnosis. Conversely, the pregnancy incidence increased among African women with fewer than two children. This study should help refine the reproductive counselling and management of HIV-infected women in France. |
