Abstract
A survey of 16,632 women attending family planning clinics in Pennsylvania found that only 13 percent of the sample used condoms. Moreover, 67 percent of the women with regular partners never used condoms with those partners, and 72 percent of women who had casual partners never used them with those partners. Levels of condom use with both regular and casual partners were higher among women younger than 20, those who were nonwhite, those with multiple partners and those who reported a previous STD infection. However, women who had sex partners who used intravenous drugs were less likely to use condoms with regular or casual partners than were women who did not have drug-using partners.
