We investigated depression in relationship to sexual risk behavior with primary partners among HIVclients in Uganda. Baseline data were analyzed from a cohort of clients starting ART. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to classify depressive severity (none, minor and major depression) and symptom type (cognitive and somatic). Condom use was assessed over the past 6 months and during the last episode of sexual intercourse. 386 participants had a primary sex partner, with whom 41.6% always used condoms during sex over the past 6 months, and 62.4% during last sex. Use of a condom during last sex was associated with having no depression and lower PHQ-9 total and cognitive and somatic subscale scores in bivariate analyses; most of these relationships were marginally significant for sex over the past 6 months. Controlling for demographics, HIV disclosure and partner HIV status, only minor depression was associated with unprotected sex. Depressive symptoms, even if not a clinical disorder, warrant early detection and treatment for promoting HIV prevention among HIV-affected couples.
