Conceptive Options for People Living with HIV
Seroconcordant and serodiscordant couples living with HIV should be counseled and informed regarding reproductive health issues, including conceptive options.

Preexposure prophylaxis may be an adjunctive method to reduce the risk, particularly among serodiscordant couples.
