Hi my partner is HIV+ve and also she has Von Willebrand’s disease, can she become a mother?
Answer
Both these conditions do not prevent a woman of becoming a mother. So, yes, she can.
Having said that, both the bleeding disorder and the HIV-infection need to be very carefully monitored and controlled.
I would suggest you consult a hospital with much experience in the area of pregnancy when you decide to have a baby. A good starting point would be St Marys in London.
