If a woman has AIDS, she may have the following symptoms: First, she may have ulcers and pain in the vagina. Second, abnormal growths, such as warts, may be found on the external genitalia. Third, herpes infection may be found in the mucosa. Fourth, enlargement of the lymph nodes in the groin may be found. If a woman has these throat symptoms, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a timely checkup and to have a blood test for HIV antibodies to find out if she is infected with AIDS, and not to have sex once the above symptoms are detected. Once AIDS is detected through sexual contact, it may be transmitted to sexual partners, so this must be taken into account.
