Women and girls are far less likely to get tested for HIV/AIDS; assuming they are not at risk. Not knowing you have a positive HIV status can lead to health complications along with the possibility of unknowingly spreading the virus to other people.
We encourage you to explore the following website to stay up-to-date on HIV/AIDS in women, including risk factors, gender-specific information, a trusted resource list, and more.
