Promoting safer sex, healthy relationships, & informed choices

Condoms are one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent unplanned pregnancies and protect oneself against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV.
Yet myths, stigma, and embarrassment still stop many young people from accessing or using them correctly.
International Condom Day reminds us that caring for your sexual health is nothing to be ashamed of, it’s something to be proud of.
Being responsible doesn’t mean you’re not fun, in love, or spontaneous. It means you value your future, your partner, and yourself. Talking openly about condoms with your partner shows respect, trust, and maturity. It’s about making choices that keep both of you safe while you explore relationships and intimacy.
So today, let’s break the silence, share accurate information, and normalize conversations about sexual protection.
Whether you’re in a relationship or just learning about sexual health, remember using a condom is a smart move. Protect your dreams, protect your health, and protect your future because you matter.
So, what exactly are condoms and how do I even use them? Watch this Video on safer sex and pregnancy prevention.
