National Condom Day
Held annually on Valentines Day 14 February
The NT has the highest rate of Syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia in the country.
National Condom Day is on 14 February, a day to promote healthy sexual relationships and encourage the use of condoms. Condoms are not only a form of contraception but are also able to protect against STIs. With national rates of STIs rising it's important that people understand the benefits of condoms.
Condoms are 98% effective at protecting against most STIs like HIV, chlamydia and gonorrhoea. However, condoms don't protect you from all STIs such as herpes, genital warts and syphilis which can be spread from skin-to-skin contact.
Get regular STI tests at Clinic 34 - find your closest one here. If you're sexually active, you need to get an STI test at least once every 12 months. If you have any symptoms or are worried about your sexual health, then arrange a test straight away with your doctor or sexual health clinic.
