Summary

Though anti-HIV drugs can dramatically improve the health of people with HIV, some people taking these drugs develop serious long term effects in their metabolism. These effects include problems with bones, increased levels of blood sugar and lipids, and changes in body fat distribution. The purpose of this study is to see how many young women are experiencing these problems and how severe the problems are. This kind of study is the first step in determining how best to treat these problems.
