Redefining Safe Sex: Beyond Condoms

The landscape of STI prevention has expanded beyond traditional condom use to include vaccines, medications like PrEP and PEP, and home testing kits, offering more discreet and convenient options for sexual health care. These advancements aim to reduce stigma and increase accessibility, though they may not be equally available to all due to cost and other barriers. Innovations like doxyPEP and new testing methods are part of a broader effort to improve STI prevention and treatment, with ongoing research into more inclusive and effective solutions.
