Using the appropriate keywords, relevant studies published on the HIV/AIDS prevalence among FSW between 2010 and 2017 were identified. Afterwards, the information was extracted and analyzed by STATA version 14.Results: Thirty-seven studies were found eligible for inclusion in this research, encompassing a total of 46,657 subjects. The results revealed that the global prevalence of HIV/AIDS among FSW was 2.17 (95% CI=1.37–3.14).Conclusion: These findings demonstrated the high prevalence of HIV/AIDS among FSWs worldwide. Accordingly, strict educational and interventional programs should be implemented globally to reduce HIV/AIDS prevalence among this group, as well as to prevent probable HIV transmission.Keywords: prevalence, HIV/AIDS, risk factors, immunodeficiency, female sex workersEilami ONazari ADousti MSayehmiri FGhasemi MDove Medical PressarticlePrevalenceHIV/AIDSRisk FactorsImmunodeficiencyFemale Sex WorkersImmunologic diseases.
