The study aimed to analyze the studies regarding the psychological sexuality features in people living with HIV. These features were considered as a factor contributing to the HIV epidemic growth. Publication analysis methodology. The analysis included works performed from 2010 to 2020 with a legitimate study design. The publication analysis included: the definition of the concepts used, the study of the types of psychological sexuality features, risky sexual behavior, and the comorbidity of HIV with drug addiction. Analysis results. Features of sexual dysfunctions associated with the presence/absence of HIV were revealed in the study. The following negative effects in the sexual sphere of people living with HIV were identified in the study: violation of relationships with a partner and satisfaction of the acceptance and love needs, as well as reduced sexual life. The presence of a certain deficit and fragmentation of modern foreign publications and an insufficient number of domestic publications on the topic of research has been established.
