Article-Summary: 

Increased access to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy and the resulting improvements in health have given many clients with HIV a renewed optimism about the future. As personal situations improve, these clients may reconsider their reproductive options — some deciding whether to have children, others resuming sexual activity while wanting to avoid pregnancy. As a result, demand for contraception among clients with HIV, especially those on ARV therapy, is expected to increase.
