Self-reported HIV risk in Kenyan pregnant and breastfeeding women compared to non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding women seeking HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis

In 2016, WHO recommended HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding (PBF) and at substantial risk of HIV infection (defined as HIV incidence>3/100 person-years in absence of PrEP). This analysis compared self-reported HIV risk factors at baseline between PBF versus non-PBF women seeking PrEP in Kenya, and explored differences in continuation in PrEP services at 1, 3, and 6 months between these groups.
