My guess is that the device has the potential of breaking the tissue lining the uterus, which could cause bleeding. Active uterine bleeding would increase the likelihood of contracting HIV if the woman has sex with a man who has it. I could be wrong, but I doubt that any woman would be prevented from receiving the device if she wanted it, no matter what her relationship status is. Having the disclaimer on the ads and literature might prevent them from being sued if someone who has the device contracts HIV.JPDenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11113766962967619446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667514217502990299.post-73949238362625840882008-03-17T09:57:00.000-05:002008-03-17T09:57:00.000-05:00I think "in a stable relationship" is either somet...I think "in a stable relationship" is either something we say in a politically correct environment or a bow to the moral peevishness of the Religious Right.
