AB A cross-sectional survey of 3,136 women attending family planning
clinics in Texas was conducted to examine past use of and future plans
for use of condoms by partners during sexual intercourse for disease
prevention in conjunction with other contraceptive methods. Following
the receipt of clinical services, including counseling about family
planning and disease prevention, both contraceptive and planned condom
use reporting increased for the majority of subjects. However 22% of the
sample indicated that they intended to reduce condom use in the future
and instead use a contraceptive which protects from pregnancy but not
from disease. Condom use was indicated more frequently for those who
reported at least one risk factor for HIV, but 17% of those at risk
indicated lower future condom use than past use. This suggests that
without changes in risk behavior, these women will be at increased risk
of HIV or another sexually transmitted disease.
