NYC OB/GYN HIV+ specialist
« on: April 06, 2007, 08:57:01 pm »
Hi ladies,

My husband and I want to start a family.  I'm positive and he's negative.  Does anyone know of any OB/GYNs in the NYC area that specialize in dealing with HIV+ women?  Thanks.

I'm in FTL here, sorry :(

Have you asked your doctor for referrals or suggestions? Your ID may know a couple.

Good luck!

IzPoz: Yes, I spoke to my social worker at my doctor's office this week and she's on the case looking for me.  Last year I went to the suggested ob/gyn that specializes but I really didn't like her.  She was too rough and cold for my taste. 

bimazed: I saw that study and as soon as I saw it, I showed it to my husband.  I'm undetectable.  That was good news to know.

I know my meds are compatible (Kaletra/Truvada).  We'll see what happens and thank you for your responses.  Let's hope the baby dust floats this way.
