Insufficient screening and diagnostic delay play a significant role in sustaining the HIV epidemic by France. No significant decline is recorded in heterosexual, whether born in France or abroad. Gender inequalities major factors reinforce social inequalities in order to of heterosexual men born abroad the most later diagnosed with HIV infection. Those gender differences are largely due to efficiency antenatal HIV screening, offered to women every pregnancy and widely accepted: a billed HIV serology in the context of pregnancy monitoring was found for 92% pregnant women benefiting from health insurance in 2015. The arrival of a child could be an opportunity to screening for the future father as well. However, well that a consultation and a biological assessment intended for future fathers are provided for and fully reimbursed by the social security, the health of men is not taken into account in prenatal follow-up current French. The maternity hospital drains a population largely immigrant, often precarious. She puts in contact with the care of pregnant women who were sometimes distant, but not their companions: beyond the issue of reduction of the hidden HIV epidemic, increased needs for prevention and access to health appeared to us for the pilot phase of this project.
