The authors conducted interviews with adolescents living with HIV in Zambia to assess the extent to which their reproductive health needs are being met. The results state that these adolescents need comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services. This includes information about contraceptive methods, healthy pregnancy and prevention of mother-to-child transmission, skills on HIV disclosure and condom negotiation to prevent horizontal transmission, and screening for sexual violence for both males and females.
