HIV is exchanged through bodily fluids. A woman with menopause can transmit HIV. Even if a guy has no sperm, he still has semen which would contain the HIV virus.
Rubbers are the best bet for preventing the transmission of HIV; either use condoms or abstinence, or don't have unprotected sex with someone whose history and health you are unfamiliar with.

Well, going along with what I understand...
1. Can a woman transmit aids after menopause? YES.
2. Can Sterile man pass on HIV through intercourse? YES
3. What method of contraception is best...Condoms has been the best form of contraception other than abstinence.
HIV is transmitted by the exchange of bodily fluids either during sex or intravenously via a needle or open wound. Bodily fluids means more that sperm, or vaginal fluids.

A woman would still have aids after menopause,so yes she can transmit it.Yes a sterile man can also transmit aids through intercourse,you transmit fluids other than sperm during intercourse.Condoms limit the chance but nothing eliminates it.

1. Yes because once you have aids it doesn't disappear, you have it forever and it can be passed on when a woman is going through menopause she loses some hormones not aids
2. yes the man may be sterile but he still has other bodily fluid so he can still transmit it the only way to be safe is not share razors, and towels and use a condom..
3. Dont have any sex at all, or use a condom.

1) a woman can still transmit HIV after menopause.
The fluids do the job, not menstrual discharge alone.
2) even though the man has no fertile sperm, the semen fluid
still can carry HIV.
3) Condoms are the safest choice, i think.
note: people cannot transmit AIDS, they transmit HIV instead.
That HIV later develop AIDS. Just for ur information.

OF COURSE a woman can contract AIDS after menopause. The two have NOTHING AT ALL to do with one another.
Yes, a man can pass HIV through intercourse, whether he is sterile or able to make tons of babies (that would probably be infected with HIV as well).
Getting tested at least twice a year if you're sexually active, and wearing condoms and using a spermicide as well, are 3 ways to HOPEFULLY staying HIV/AIDS free.
The best way to stay 100% clean/free is to ABSTAIN altogether.

I can help you.
Yes, a woman can still transmit the virus after menopause. If any blood to blood contact occurs, open sore etc. A man can still transmit the virus if he is sterile. Again, Aids is transmitted through blood to blood contact. No birth control pill is effective against AIDS. Only a condom.

What are you 8 years old? HIV is a disease of the immune system transmitted by fluids specially blood mixing with your own. The age of the woman has no bearing or fertility of the man.
Condoms limit transmission.

1.) Yes, of course a woman can transmit AIDS after menopause. If she has the virus, it's still in her blood and vaginal fluids, regardless of what her hormones are doing. 2) Absolutely. A man who is sterile and has AIDS will still have the virus in his blood and seminal fluids--regardless of whether or not there are any live sperm in those fluids. 3) No method can elminate the chance of trasmitting AIDS, but condoms can reduce the chances.

A person can get HIV at any point in their life. Any time there is an exchange of bodily fluids, such as blood or seamen, it can be contracted. Condoms are a safe bet, but the safest is obviously abstinence.
