Abstract
Menopause may impact the earlier onset of aging-related comorbidities among women with versus without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). We found that menopausal status, age, and HIV were independently associated with higher comorbidity burden, and that HIV impacted burden most in the pre-/perimenopausal phases.
