Women Who Use Drugs and Female Partners of Men Who Use Drugs
Gap
Adolescent girls who use drugs need risk reduction programs to meet their needs. A study found high rates of HIV risk behaviors among adolescent girls who use drugs, especially those who lived on the streets, as well as high rates of forced sex. Risk behaviors start at early ages (up to 30% reported being under age 15 when they first injected) (UNICEF, 2013; UNESCO, 2012c), yet younger girls who inject drugs are not being reached by existing harm reduction and HIV prevention services. Current guidelines also do not consider how best to reach adolescents (Krug et al., 2015). Age restrictions hinder adolescent access to services (Krug et al., 2015).

Interventions are needed to inform women who use drugs of harm reduction early in pregnancy and to ensure systematic access to opioid agonist treatment during pregnancy and in hospitals for birth and postpartum. Some studies have shown increased risk adverse health impacts as well as of vertical transmission among women who use drugs which may be mitigated by harm reduction [See %{s:45}]
