艾滋病毒与怀孕
为什么孕妇要接受检测
如果你是 怀孕了,我们建议你做一下检查 人类免疫缺陷病毒 (艾滋病毒),即使你不认为你有风险. Because this infection may go without symptoms for several years, you or your partner may be infected and not be aware of it. Studies have shown that more than half of women already infected with HIV did not think they were at risk.
It is important to know if you have HIV when 怀孕了 so you can get special care to stay healthy and reduce your baby's chance of HIV infection.
什么是艾滋病毒?
HIV stands for 人类免疫缺陷病毒, a virus that attacks the immune system. The immune system is responsible for preventing and fighting infections. Most people who are infected with HIV do not have symptoms of the disease even though immune damage is occurring.
When a person with HIV is unable to fight common infections or develops certain types of cancer, 他或她被诊断患有艾滋病, which stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. It may take more than 10 years for HIV infection to develop into AIDS. 尽管目前还没有治愈艾滋病毒或艾滋病的方法, there are medications that can be used to help a patient's immune system fight infections.
母婴传播风险
如果孕妇感染了艾滋病毒, the chance that HIV will be passed on to her baby is one in four, 或者25%. However, proper treatment can decrease the chances of passing on the virus to 5 percent or less.
HIV检测
艾滋病毒可以通过血液检查发现. A positive test means that the person has been infected with the HIV virus. 当一个人是hiv阳性时, he or she may not feel sick but can still give the virus to another person. Almost every person who has HIV infection got it by one of the following:
- Unprotected sex of any kind that allows fluids from you and your partner to enter each other's body
- Sharing needles for drugs, tattoos and piercing of the ear and other parts of the body
- Receiving blood transfusions between 1975 and 1985, before the test for HIV was 可用
- Being born to a mother who is HIV positive or who has AIDS
保护自己免受艾滋病毒感染
Remember, you can protect yourself from getting HIV by:
- 性交时总是使用避孕套(阴道性交), anal or oral) unless you are sure your partner does not have HIV, has no other sex partners and does not share needles to inject drugs
- 不要共用皮下注射针头
