A Contextualization of Transgender Women and Condom Use Using the HIV Syndemic Framework: Scoping Review.

To contextualize condom use in the transgender women population utilizing the HIV syndemic framework. Studies reporting condom use frequency and syndemic factors associated with HIV risk in transgender women were systematically searched. We followed the Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist. Social factors have a proven relationship with using condoms and HIV among transgender women. Syndemic factors, defined as co-occurring adverse factors that interact to contribute to risk behaviors, deserve a specific analysis to develop strategies to face HIV among transgender women. A syndemic perspective allows to generate specific health intervention and prevention policies to protect transgender women.
