How to prevent Perinatal Transmission of HIV? |
Whether there is any drug to prevent parent to child transmission of HIV I don't think you can prevent that...just hope... nope dont think so. if you mean from a pregnant woman to her baby inside her womb then im afraid there is no way to prevent the transmission because the mother's blood is the one that nourishes the developing fetus and that fetus still doesn't have active immune system. yes there is. especially in developed nations there are very good practices in place to prevent mother-child transmission. the key is early detection that the mother is HIV positive because the drug therapy starts 18 weeks into the pregnancy and will continue until after the baby is born. there is usually a good chance that the HIV transmission can be prevented if everything is done correctly, including c-section for deliverying the baby and no breast feeding whatsoever yes but I dont think it is 100%. Since your babys blood is different from yours. I think they give mother AZT. But I not sure... A pregnant women can decide whether or not to take AZT or ART therapy to prevent spreading the virus to her unborn child. The drugs can pose risk to a developing fetus though and lead to brith abnormalities. The risk is still about 25% chance the baby will get it, even with treatment and a c section will also greatly reduce the risk. The mother should also not breast feed her child |
