AbstractThis article reviews the interactions between HIV infection and a variety of gynecologic conditions, including lower genital tract neoplasia, pelvic inflammatory disease, menstrual disorders, sexually transmitted diseases, and vaginitis. Important considerations in choosing a family planning method for women infected with HIV-infected women will respond to standard therapy, but require multiple courses of treatment or use of innovative treatment methods. All HIV-infected women deserve careful evaluation for and treatment of gynecologic diseases.
