Condom Brochure, FDA OSHI HIV STDs Condoms and sexually transmitted diseases . . . especially AIDS. including AIDS. Back to top. Facts about sexually transmitted diseases. http://www.fda.gov/oashi/aids/condom.html
Extractions: This booklet is to help you understand why it's important to use condoms (rubbers, prophylactics) to help reduce the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. These diseases include AIDS, chlamydia, genital herpers, genial warts, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, and syphilis. You can get them through having sex vaginal, anal, or oral. The surest way to avoid these diseases is to not have sex altogether (abstinence). Another way is to limit sex to one partner who also limits his or her sex in the same way (monogamy). Condoms are not 100% safe, but if used properly, will reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, including AIDS. Protecting yourself against the AIDS virus is of special concern becuase this disease is fatal and has no cure. About two-thirds of the people with AIDS in the United States got the disease during sexual intercourse with an infected partner. Experts believe that many of these people could have avoided the disease by using condoms.
