Contraceptive Access and the Public Health Impact of Condom Usage in India
Condom use remains a fundamental element of public health initiatives in India, playing a dual role in both family planning and the prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS. While government campaigns and distribution efforts have successfully increased awareness, overall utilization rates among couples still face barriers related to social stigma, lack of privacy at purchase points, and non-acceptance by partners. Continued focus on targeted interventions, mass media exposure, and the growing accessibility of online distribution are crucial strategies for improving consistent use and ensuring better sexual health outcomes nationwide.
