Abstract of published paper
Condom use was practiced only by 22.2% in all their vaginal and anal sexual intercourse during the three months, and 77.8% of the women never used condoms or failed to use them continuously. Their sexual partners were HIV-positive in 71% of cases. The mean ± SD of awareness score about HIV/AIDS was 7.60 ± 3.31, indicating average awareness of the subjects in the study. A total of 49.1% of the participants stated that their sexual partners’ reluctance was the most important reason for non-use of condoms, while women were not willing to use condoms in 18.2% of cases
