Psychosocial correlates of patient–provider family planning discussions among HIV-infected pregnant women in South Africa

Abstract: Patient–provider family planning discussions and preconception counseling can reduce maternal and neonatal risks by increasing adherence to provider recommendations and antiretroviral medication. However, HIV-infected women may not discuss reproductive intentions with providers due to anticipation of negative reactions and stigma. This study aimed to identify correlates of patient–provider family planning discussions among HIV-infected women in rural South Africa, an area with high rates of antenatal HIV and s… Show more

“…Furthermore, the study found an association between discussing family planning with a health care provider and fertility intentions, as in previous research. 60 These findings have been confirmed in several other studies, 5 , 6 and show the importance of the South African Department of Health guidelines in helping facilitate the initiation of discussions about fertility intentions by health care providers with PLHIV. In contrast, family planning knowledge and participation in an enhanced PMTCT intervention, which included information on family planning, were associated with decreased fertility intention.…”

“…In one study, however, in rural Mpumalanga, only a quarter of HIVinfected women had discussed family planning with their providers. [73] There are substantial drug interactions between efavirenz and Implanon, considerably reducing drug levels of etonogestrel, the active drug in Implanon. [74][75][76] Interactions between efavirenz and Jadelle appear even more pronounced than with Implanon.…”

“…The literature on HIV and FP integration includes interventions targeting providers [9][10][11][12], HIV+ patients [13][14][15], and discordant couples [16,17] as well as efforts to enhance male involvement [18][19][20]. In heterosexual populations with a high prevalence of HIV, an important target audience for HIV and FP services is couples who can benefit from joint services [21][22][23].…”
