Do male and female condoms provide the same protection against HIV?

The answer is yes. Studies show that female condoms are as effective at protecting against HIV as male condoms. Female condoms are made of polyurethane or nitrile, which is an effective barrier to HIV. Male and female condoms should not be used at the same time. Female condoms, like latex male condoms, are available in some drug stores, community health centers, and AIDS service organizations. Try to use male condom or female condoms for each sex.
