Worldwide, more women with HIV are aging and entering menopause. Although a limited number of evidenced-based care recommendations are published, formal guidelines for the management of menopause in women with HIV are not available. Many women with HIV receive primary care from HIV infectious disease specialists, without any detailed assessment of menopause. Women's healthcare professionals specializing in menopause may have limited knowledge regarding the care of women with HIV. Clinical considerations for menopausal women with HIV include distinguishing menopause from amenorrhea because of other etiologies, early assessment of symptoms, and recognizing unique clinical, social, and behavioral comorbidities to facilitate care management.
在全球范围内，感染艾滋病毒的女性正步入老龄化并进入更年期。尽管已发表的循证护理建议数量有限，但针对感染艾滋病毒女性的更年期管理尚无正式指南。许多感染艾滋病毒的女性接受艾滋病毒传染病专家的初级护理，却未对更年期进行任何详细评估。专门从事更年期护理的女性医疗保健专业人员对感染艾滋病毒女性的护理知识可能有限。感染艾滋病毒的更年期女性的临床考虑因素包括区分更年期与其他病因导致的闭经、早期症状评估以及识别独特的临床、社会和行为合并症，以促进护理管理。
