Objective. To analyze the peculiarities of reproductive function realization in HIV-infected women, the impact of HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ARVT) on the quality of gametes and the outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs.
Material and methods. The review includes more than 50 foreign and Russian publications.
Results. The impact of HIV infection and ARVT on fertility, the quality of gametes, and the effectiveness of ART programs is discussed in women with HIV infection.
Conclusion. The negative impact of HIV infection and ARVT on fertility creates preconditions for the in-depth study of problems and for the development of a personalized approach to realizing the reproductive function of HIV-infected women.
