Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence and factors associated with paternity intention in 162 men with HIV/AIDS in Fortaleza, Ceará. Data were collected from June to September 2012 using a questionnaire in reference outpatient centers. Pearson's chi-squared test and logistic regression model were used for analysis. In all, 41.4% of men had the intention to have children. Age <35 years (p<0.001), desire to have children before diagnosis (p<0.001), relationship for less than five years (p=0.022), partner's desire to have children (p<0.001), having no children with the partner (p=0.047), partner without children (p=0.032) and therapy for more than three years (p=0.030) presented significant statistical association with men's desire to have children. In the multivariate analysis, the desire to have children before diagnosis (p=0.004; OR:9.81; CI:1.84-52.20) and partner's desire to have children (p<0.001; OR:9.72; CI:3.48-27.12) remained statistically significant. Many men still intend to be fathers even after the HIV/AIDS diagnosis.
