Timeline
After moving to the United Kingdom, she continued this work at the International Community of Women Living with HIV/AIDS. Later, she returned to South Africa and worked at the University of the Witwatersrand's Reproductive Health and HIV Research Unit, and co-founded the Her Rights Initiative in 2008.
After the murder of Gugu Dlamini, an activist who was stoned and stabbed to death after disclosing that she was HIV-positive, Mthembu founded the Gugu Dlamini Action Group, which evolved into the regional branch of the Treatment Action Campaign. She went on to work for the Treatment Action Campaign, focusing on mother-child transmission of HIV and serving on its National Executive Committee. In 2004, she established the Young Woman's Dialogue, a forum for HIV-positive women in Namibia and South Africa.
In 1997, she went to the hospital for treatment of a cervical cyst. There, she found out she was pregnant again. She asked for an abortion, but the doctors there would only terminate the pregnancy if she agreed to be sterilized, forcing her into an unwanted sterilization.
Mthembu became pregnant at age 16 and gave birth to her daughter, Mbali, who has cerebral palsy. Then, in her first year as a university student in 1995, she became pregnant again, and found out that she was HIV-positive. This second pregnancy ended in a stillbirth.
She became politically active as a teenager, participating in projects on AIDS awareness. From 1992 to 1994, she served as president of her high school's Students’ Representative Council.
Mthembu dropped out of school in the late 1990s; her parents refused to pay her university fees, on the assumption that she was going to die. However, she eventually returned to school and went on to graduate with a bachelor's in social science from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. She has subsequently pursued a doctorate at the university.
