National Condom Week is Coming Up

It’s no coincidence that National Condom Week falls on the holiday of love! If you’re considering getting intimate with your Valentine this week, be sure to stay safe!

When it comes to barrier methods, external condoms are by far the most popular and accessible—but they aren’t the only option! While most condoms place responsibility in the hands of the penetrator, internal condoms allow for protection on the receiving end.

Internal condoms, sometimes referred to as female condoms (though they can be worn by any gender!), are an excellent choice for protection against pregnancy and/or STIs. Because they are on the expensive side they are often overlooked, but this V-day you’re in luck, SNAHC offers internal condoms upon request!

If you’re sticking to external condoms, SNAHC keeps our restrooms and medical rooms fully stocked with reproductive health packets complete with external condoms and lubricant packages.

SNAHC offers confidential reproductive health and family planning services including:

  • Birth control methods
  • STI & HIV screenings
  • Treatment and counseling for STIs including Hep C
  • Partner treatment for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea

Don’t let cupid make you stupid, use protection!
