This field study was carried out in the STD/HIV/AIDS outpatient department of infectious diseases hospital in Fortaleza-CE, Brazil. It was aimed to know sexual aspects and reproductive perspectives of women with HIV/aids and to verify the changes occurred with seropositivity. The data were collected from 64 women, through interview and observation, from January to March 2008. From these women, 47 (73,4 %) had a fixed partner; 32 (68,0 %) stated they had always used 'condom'; however only 11 (17,2 %) demonstrated the correct placing. Desire for maternity was referred by 45 (70,3 %) participants. After finding the seropositivy, 12 (28,5 %) women had reduction and/or absence of libido and restrictions in the forms of sexual practices, 10 (23,8 %) became refrained from having new sexual partners, 9 (21,4 %) feared people's reaction to the diagnosis, 5 (11,9 %) started to use condom and 4 (9,51 %) developed fear of getting pregnant.
