Abstract

Abstract Despite the possibility of having HIV-infected children and the vulnerability of families, women living with HIV/AIDS still tend to have children. The aim of this study was to explore the childbearing experiences among women living with HIV in Fars, Iran. This is a qualitative content analysis. Twenty-two participants were selected from the married HIV-infected women who referred to the Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) center in Fars province. The concept of “childbearing dilemma” consist of “childbearing stimulants” and “childbearing deterrents,” which emerged from women’s descriptions of the childbearing decision. Different motives and obstacles affected their decision. Interestingly, financial problems were not mentioned as a significant issue and the decision to have a child was an emotional factor rather than financial. Hence, understanding the motives and obstacles is important, and the decision to have a child is anyone’s right, which should not be deprived of.
伊朗已婚艾滋病毒感染妇女的生育困境定性研究
摘要尽管有可能有感染艾滋病毒的儿童和家庭的脆弱性,但感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的妇女仍然倾向于有孩子。本研究的目的是探讨伊朗法尔斯地区艾滋病毒感染妇女的生育经历。这是一个定性的内容分析。22名参与者是从法尔斯省自愿咨询和检测中心的已婚艾滋病毒感染妇女中挑选出来的。“生育困境”的概念由“生育兴奋剂”和“生育威慑物”组成,这两个概念源于女性对生育决定的描述。不同的动机和障碍影响了他们的决定。有趣的是,经济问题并没有被认为是一个重大问题,生孩子的决定是一个情感因素,而不是经济因素。因此,了解动机和障碍很重要,生孩子的决定是任何人的权利,不应被剥夺。
