  21. CONCLUSIONS • This study reveals this population as the lower level of schooling completed in all geographical areas. • This is a population that largely has no health insurance and its main offices are in sex work and hairdressing. Although their incomes are above the income poverty line. • The changes experienced by this population in relation to diagnosis differ from the changes in other populations. The most striking difference is that low sexual frequency, but not interrupted at any time. Here we also see words such as "wild life", "promiscuous" with the imperative of achieving a "normal" life, which finds us once again that the speeches, even the people themselves are permeated by the devices of regulation sexuality

  22. A good percentage, especially outside of Lima and Callao, report having had unprotected sex in the last month, which could indicate us to be less information and less involvement of health services. • It is noted that some practices are choosing to cross with their partners who have to do with an undetectable viral load. In this sense, condom use is restricted to potential partners. • The "sinsoneo" for example, is usually performed between VVS trans women. This practice is to perform penetration without a condom and avoid ejaculation during intercourse and try to put the condom just before ejaculation, or ejaculation outside (it is thus an emic term that refers to "withdrawal" or withdrawal, described as one of the behaviors seroadaptativos). This practice is done so when the trans woman performs the active role as a liability.

  23. There is a high consumption of alcohol and drugs prior to sex in this population. • A majority no information was offered about the relationship between hormone treatment and antiretroviral use, nor are they also provide information on diseases of the prostate or anal cancer. In relation to the population of trans women we can see is that the information and services on most issues, except what related to treatment, are absent. • In the population of trans women can be targeted "treatment as prevention 'can help gain access to treatment of the population of trans women, in order to have a closer involvement with their reality and not just harm reduction

  24. RECOMMENDATIONS • It is necessary to address this issue and propose alternatives in counseling for people living with HIV. • They must find solutions to each of the realities. • It reiterates the need to work together SRH and HIV, but with a new fresh approach and updated. • It is proposed to begin discussions on new prevention technologies (treatment and prevention) and for reproduction (sperm washing). • It is necessary to move towards a comprehensive approach involving health Health Promotion in action. • It is necessary to incorporate the rights approach, sexual, reproductive, but also in relation to human right to identity. • Permanently to train counselors and peer counselors to be able to guide users about their sexuality and reproductive choices within a framework of respect for human rights.

  25. Incorporated within the standard of care comprehensive minimum package of services that encompasses beyond HAART is routinely available within the care pathway users and include: Psychological, nutritional counseling, family planning counseling and prevention other diseases. • Include in regional budgets of funds related to recruitment of other health professionals: psychologists / as, nutritionists, psychiatrists, counselors, family planning and the sustainability of the peer counselors. • Secure resources to improve infrastructure and provide space for hospitals to protect the confidentiality and privacy of users both in counseling as a medical consultation. • Strengthen information systems of hospitals including registration systems and case tracking.
