From a policy and programmatic point of view, this paper reviews the literature on the fertility-related needs of women and men living with HIV and how the entry points represented by family planning, sexually transmitted infection and HIV-related services can ensure access to contraception, abortion and fertility services for women and men living with HIV. Most contraceptive methods are safe and effective for HIV positive women and men. The existing range of contraceptive options should be available to people living with HIV, along with more information about and access to emergency contraception. Potential drug interaction must be considered between hormonal contraception and treatment for tuberculosis and certain antiretroviral drugs. Couples living with HIV who wish to use a permanent contraceptive method should have access to female sterilisation and vasectomy in an informed manner, free of coercion. How to promote condoms and dual protection and how to make them acceptable in long term-relationships remains a challenge. Both surgical and medical abortion are safe for women living with HIV. To reduce risk of vertical transmission of HIV and in cases of infertility, people with HIV should have access to sperm washing and other assisted conception methods, if these are available. Simple and cost-effective procedures to reduce risk of vertical transmission should be part of counselling for women and men living with HIV who intend to have children. Support for the reproductive rights of people with HIV is a priority. More operations research on best practices is needed.RésuméA partir du point de vue des politiques et des programmes, cet article fait une revue des publications sur les besoins liés à la fécondité des femmes et des hommes vivant avec le VIH et comment les points d'entrée que sont les services de planification familiale, de traitement des IST et du VIH peuvent garantir l'accès aux services de contraception, d'avortement et de procréation aux femmes et aux hommes vivant avec le VIH. La plupart des méthodes contraceptives sont sûres et efficaces pour les femmes séropositives. Toutes les options contraceptives devraient être disponibles pour les personnes séropositives, avec davantage d'informations sur la contraception d'urgence et un accès à cette intervention. Il faut envisager l'interaction potentielle des médicaments entre la contraception hormonale et le traitement de la tuberculose ou certains antirétroviraux. Les couples vivant avec le VIH qui souhaitent utiliser une méthode permanente de contraception doivent avoir accès à la stérilisation féminine et la vasectomie, en connaissance de cause et sans coercition. Il demeure difficile de promouvoir le préservatif et la protection double, et de les faire accepter dans des relations à long terme. L'avortement chirurgical et médicamenteux est sûr pour les femmes séropositives. Pour réduire le risque de transmission verticale du VIH et dans des cas de stérilité, les personnes séropositives doivent avoir accès au lavage du sperme et autres méthodes de procréation assistée, si elles sont disponibles. Des procédures simples et rentables doivent être présentées dans les conseils aux femmes et hommes vivant avec le VIH qui souhaitent avoir des enfants. Le soutien des droits génésiques des personnes séropositives est une priorité. Il faut davantage de recherches opérationnelles sur les meilleures pratiques.ResumenDesde el punto de vista de políticas y programas, este artículo revisa el material publicado sobre las necesidades relacionadas con la fertilidad de las personas que viven con VIH y la forma en que los puntos de entrada representados por los servicios relacionados con la planificación familiar, las infecciones de transmisión sexual y el VIH pueden garantizarles acceso a los servicios de anticoncepción, aborto y fertilidad. La mayoría de los métodos anticonceptivos son seguros y eficaces para las mujeres seropositivas. Las parejas que viven con VIH deben tener acceso a la gama de opciones anticonceptivas, así como a más información sobre la anticoncepción de emergencia y acceso a ésta. Se debe tener en cuenta una posible interacción de medicamentos entre la anticoncepción hormonal y el tratamiento de la tuberculosis y determinados fármacos antirretrovirales. Las parejas que viven con VIH y desean utilizar un anticonceptivo permanente deben tener acceso a la esterilización femenina y la vasectomía de manera informada, libre de coerción. Continúa siendo un reto determinar la mejor forma de promover los condones y la doble protección, así como lograr que sean aceptados en relaciones de largo plazo. El aborto quirúrgico y el aborto con medicamentos son seguros para las mujeres que viven con VIH. A fin de disminuir el riesgo de transmisión vertical del VIH y en casos de infertilidad, las personas con VIH deben tener acceso al lavado de espermatozoides y a otros métodos asistidos de concepción, si estos están disponibles. Los procedimientos sencillos y costo-eficaces deben ser parte de la consejería brindada a las personas que viven con VIH y piensan tener hijos. Es una prioridad apoyar los derechos reproductivos de las personas con VIH. Aún se deben realizar más investigaciones operativas sobre las mejores prácticas
