What are the Common Gynecological Complications in HIV-positive Women?
HIV-positive women are at a higher risk of developing various gynecological complications, including:
- Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections, which can lead to cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer. - Vaginal infections such as bacterial vaginosis and candidiasis. - Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which can lead to infertility. - Menstrual irregularities and early onset of menopause.
