The only 100% effective way to prevent sexual transmission of HIV is through abstinence – avoiding all vaginal, anal and oral sex. Using a latex male condom or a female condom can greatly reduce, but not entirely eliminate, the risk of HIV transmission. However, abstinence is the only method to completely eliminate the possibility of sexual transmission of HIV.
