Question

Is it safe to have a baby with my negative husband?

Am HIV+ with undetectable viral load and cd4 slightly over 1000. My hubby is negative. We are planning to conceive by having unprotected sex. Is it safe for him? How safe is efiverenz/tenofovir/lamivudine which am currently using during the pregnancy.

Answer

Thanks for getting in touch.

Because you’re on treatment and undetectable, the risks of transmission are close to zero. For more information please see the results from the PARTNER study.

Therefore, if you wish to conceive naturally then you can. Our HIV and pregnancy guide may also be of interest:
