 AB    It is increasingly apparent that the differences in the prevalence and
       severity of various gynaecological conditions are a function of
       immunosuppression and differences in behavioural factors, rather than a
       direct effect of HIV itself. Women infected with HIV will present with
       their gynaecological disorders initially to their carers in both primary
       care and genitourinary medicine clinic settings. It is therefore
       essential that all those involved in the management of these women are
       aware of the interactions between HIV infection, immunosuppression and
       various gynaecological conditions so that they may be appropriately
       managed.
