Abstract

The HIV-1 infected patients now have the possibility to become fathers, avoiding viral transmission to the mother and future child. Sperm parameters are not significantly different from those that the World Health Organization considered to be normal. It is not possible to detect a parameter that could help us in the prediction of the sperm wash results, which remain positive in 10% of the samples. Low CD4 counts together with a long time of evolution of the disease are relevent for the sample, but insignificant for the whole treatment. Knowing all these results, patients must be counseled accordingly before the initiation of a treatment.
