Abstract
This research focuses on the problems experienced by married women with HIV AIDS due to cultural influences, which are analyzed using Michel Foucault's body power theory. The design of this study is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. This aims to reflect the life world of HIV AIDS cases in married women in Medan City. Several things behind the permissive state of the informants cannot be separated from the pressure (determinism) of cultural values ​-​-that have been constructed into the informants' understanding. The state of determinism that influences these problems includes the cultural values ​-​-of households, which provide space for the construction of patriarchal domination. This then presents the Episteme of serving the husband, which creates Oppression (Subaltern) in women. Not only facing chronic health problems but also complicated household problems due to illness. Even though their position is also that of a victim who contracted it from their husband.
