Reproductive intentions among HIV-negative gay and bisexual men initiating pre-exposure prophylaxis in the sustainable health center implementation pre-exposure prophylaxis pilot study, 2014–2016

International Journal of STD & AIDS Dec 11, 2021

Jones JT, Coleman M, Hoover KW, et al. - Men enrolled in the Sustainable Health Center Implementation pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) Pilot (SHIPP) Study, which was a cohort study of PrEP implementation in five community health centers in Chicago, Jackson, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., were investigated for their reproductive intentions and associated characteristics.

  • Baseline data from 1,275 men, who self-identified as gay or bisexual and participated in the SHIPP study, were analyzed.

  • Audio computer-assisted self-interviews querying intentions to have a child in the future were completed by the participants.

  • Intentions to have a child were indicated by nearly 47% of participants.

  • More frequently Black/non-Hispanic and other/non-Hispanic participants reported intentions to have a child than white/non-Hispanic participants.

  • As age increased, participants less frequently reported intentions to have children.

  • Researchers recommend clinicians that provide PrEP to black and other/non-Hispanic gay and bisexual men to assess their reproductive intentions as family-planning counseling is possibly an opportunity to introduce PrEP to HIV-negative gay and bisexual men.
