Book excerpt: Although the AIDS epidemic has generated worldwide concern, very little attention has been paid to its impact on the increasing numbers of women who have been infected. Women with HIV disease are in many ways a unique group - their clinical symptoms can differ from those of men, and because they are the ones who bear and usually care for children, they have different psychosocial concerns and needs. This book - written by experts in the fields of law, medicine, nursing, public health, social work, ethics, and psychiatry, and enriched by personal accounts from women who have been living with the disease - is a guide to the medical and social treatment of women with HIV.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by three experts with extensive experience helping people with HIV/AIDS, A Woman's Guide to Living with HIV Infection is a medically informational, comprehensive, and deeply compassionate resource for women with HIV and their families and friends. While addressing the entire range of health and emotional issues faced by people with HIV, the authors cover topics of special interest to women--gynecologic disorders, reproductive choices, contraception, and pregnancy. The authors offer clear advice on these and other crucial topics: Testing for HIV and coping with the diagnosis Finding a physician and preparing for the first visit Recognizing symptoms and preventing complications Understanding the latest treatment options, including new medical research and clinical trials Coping with gynecological infections and STDs Considering pregnancy and birth control Assuring breast, bone, and heart health Treating drug and alcohol dependence Dealing with partner violence and abuse other resources for people with HIV. The practical advice in this book can help the thousands of women diagnosed with HIV every year lead to fuller and healthier lives. The authors have succeeded in the challenging task of writing a book that will educate and empower women with HIV to fully participate in their care--and one that is both up to date and written at a level that is understandable to lay readers without being too simplistic. This book meets a great need within the community of women with HIV.--Judith S. Currier, M.D., UCLA Center for Clinical AIDS Research and Education, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA

Part 3 focuses on different maternal and newborn health topics, including general care in the home during pregnancy; birth and emergency planning; danger signs in pregnancy; post-abortion care; support during labor; postnatal care of the mother and newborn; family planning counselling; breastfeeding; women with HIV/AIDS; death and bereavement; women and violence; linking with the community. Each Session contains specific aims and objectives, clearly outlining the skills that will be developed and corresponding learning outcomes.

There is a review at the end of each session to ensure the SAs have understood the key points before they progress to subsequent sessions.

This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: he starting point for this guideline is the point at which a woman has learnt that she is living with HIV and it therefore covers key issues for providing comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights-related services and support for women living with HIV. As women living with HIV face unique challenges and human rights violations related to their sexuality and reproduction within their families and communities as well as from the health-care institutions where they seek care particular emphasis is placed on the creation of an enabling environment to support more effective health interventions and better health outcomes. This guideline is meant to help countries to more effectively and efficiently plan develop and monitor programmes and services that promote gender equality and human rights and hence are more acceptable and appropriate for women living with HIV taking into account the national and local epidemiological context. It discusses implementation issues that health interventions and service delivery must address to achieve gender equality and support human rights.
