So what were they thinking??? Did you know that high school students who had sex used condoms only 50-60% of the time??? REMEMBER… abstinence is the ONLY 100% method… but if you do have sex, protect yourself NO MATTER WHAT!!!
Types of Contraceptives • Barrier protection • male and female condoms • diaphragm • contraceptive sponge • cervical cap • Non-barrier protection • birth control pills • spermicides
What works? • Barrier-Protection • Something that physically prevents sperm from entering the cervix. • Male latex condoms are the best method for STD/HIV protection of all the different barrier contraceptives.
What doesn’t work? • Non-Barrier Protection • Only protects you from getting pregnant DOES NOT PROTECT AGAINST STD/HIV!!
Remember: • ABSTINENCE IS THE ONLY METHOD OF CONTRACEPTION THAT IS A 100% EFFECTIVE IN KEEPING YOURSELF FREE OF STD’S !!!!!!! SEX
