This research has as main purpose to analyze the way that five women with HIV/AIDS, who live in Pelotas (RS) and caught the virus from sexual relations without precaution, have their lives modified by HIV-positive. In other words, it questions how such women realize and signify changes in their ordinary practices (personal relationships, mainly in the loving and family fields) and related to themselves, above all regarding to body, sexuality and female roles. In this sense, testimonies has been collected from UFPel/FAU Hospital-dia s users, who match the profile of this research, that is, to be a woman, to have a stable loving relationship, and to have HIV/AIDS from her spouse. The methodology used in order to achieve and to analyze the testimonies is the Life Oral History.
