All contraception prevents HIV.

1 answer

This statement is not entirely true. While some forms of contraception, such as male and female condoms, can help to reduce the risk of HIV transmission by acting as a barrier to prevent the exchange of bodily fluids, not all forms of contraception offer protection against HIV. For example, hormonal contraception methods like birth control pills or intrauterine devices (IUDs) do not provide any protection against sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. It is important to use condoms in combination with other forms of contraception for optimal protection against HIV and other STIs.
