Summary

The study was designed to measure the effects of male and female condom promotion on STI prevalence and reported condom use by sex workers and their partners. It also examined whether the intensity of the education and support given to intended users affected adoption and sustained use of these methods.

The primary objective of the study was:

1. To test the effect of supplementing community-based male and female condom promotion with clinic-based counseling, measured in terms of the level of protection in high-risk sex acts and STI prevalence.

Secondary objectives of the study included:
2. To monitor short- and medium terms changes in the proportion of protected sex acts among commercial sex workers after the female condom is added to a male condom distribution system.
3. To examine short-term and medium-term changes in STI prevalence when the female condom is added to the male condom distribution system.
4. To measure the incremental cost-effectiveness of adding female condom promotion to existing male condom distribution systems
