The only 100% guaranteed way to avoid STIs/STDs is to not have any kind of sexual contact — like vaginal, anal, or oral sex, or skin-to-skin genital touching — with another person.

We’ve seen that after our SRA program cycles some of our participants didn’t know that waiting and or delaying sexual intercourse was even an option.
