Hi Anonymous,

If you have an STD and your partner does not, then you must use a condom in order to protect him. Condoms are the only source of protection other than abstinence to avoid transmission. They do not protect 100% however, they are highly effective in protecting against STD's and pregnancy.

Best Wishes,

Rosa
