Sexual behavior and contraceptive practices: Study among married heterosexual HIV serodiscordant couples of reproductive age group attending anti-retroviral therapy centre at a Tertiary care hospital in Mumbai, India.

Background: As many as half of people with HIV who are in a long-term sexual relationship have an HIV-negative partner. Data on sexual behavior and contraceptive needs of heterosexual serodiscordant couples are scarce in India. Keeping these facts in mind, it was considered imperative to conduct a study on sexual behavior, contraceptive practices and associated high risk factors among heterosexual serodiscordant couples.
