Safe Sex A mutually monogamous relationship with an uninfected partner

Safer Sex: Use of Condoms Correct and consistent use of latex condoms significantly reduces risk of HIV and some STDs. Use for vaginal, anal and oral sex.

Correct Use New condom each and every time Put on as soon as erection occurs Hold tip and unroll onto penis Use water-based lubricants Withdrawal while erect

Are Condoms Effective?

Communicate What does sex mean to you? Set limits Choose safety Talk with your partner Rehearse

If your partner resists: “What? A condom? Don’t you trust me? Do you think I have a disease?” You could say…... “I do trust you--but how can I be sure of your former partners--or mine?”
