Background: Serodiscordant couples are faced with many social, sexual and relationship challenges in all aspects of their lives. The sources of conflicts could be disease acquisition, transfer of HIV to the uninfected partner, and fertility decisions. The current qualitative study was designed to explore the challenges faced by HIV negative women in serodiscordant relationships. Methods: This qualitative description was conducted in Mashhad, Northeast of Iran, between October 2018 and June 2019. 15 HIV-negative women who were living with their HIV-positive husbands were selected through purposive sampling method. The data were collected using semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis adopted by Graneheim and Lundman. MAXQDA version 12, was used for data organization. Components of rigor including credibility, dependability, confirmability and transferability were considered. Results: The main overarching theme which emerged from the qualitative study was “threats to family life”, consisting of five categories along with their subcategories. These categories included stigmatic reactions followed by disclosure of the status, social misconceptions and limitation of information sources, psychological disruptions, hard decision making for fertility, and role conflict in the family. Conclusion: This study provides an insight into different aspects of challenges faced by Iranian women in HIV-serodiscordant relationships. Also, our study supports the view of other investigators who believe that there is an urgent need for provision of counseling and empowerment interventions for HIV- serodiscordant couples. | ||
