First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

This study looks at how women with HIV in the United States decide to feed their babies, whether by breastfeeding or formula. Researchers will interview mothers and track their choices and health outcomes. The goal is to fill gaps in knowledge and create a national registry to better support these families.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could provide crucial insights to help women with HIV make informed infant feeding decisions and improve clinical care guidelines.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly test any intervention, so it cannot prove what works best for everyone.
