    Can breastfeeding transmit HIV, and how can testing help?

    Yes, breastfeeding can transmit HIV from an HIV-positive mother to her baby. Regular HIV testing during pregnancy and postpartum ensures early detection and treatment, significantly reducing the risk of transmission. Mothers on effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) can breastfeed safely under a doctor’s guidance.
