Question

I’m pregnant, do I need to use ARVs?

Hi, I’m pregnant and was wondering if I needed to use ARVs. I don’t want to transmit to my baby.

Answer

Thanks for getting in touch.

The simply answer is yes. Not only will the ARVs control your HIV, they’ll also reduce the risk of transmission to your baby.
