 AB    A cross-sectional survey of 3,136 women attending family planning
       clinics in Texas was conducted to examine past use of and future plans
       for use of condoms by partners during sexual intercourse for disease
       prevention in conjunction with other contraceptive methods. Following
       the receipt of clinical services, including counseling about family
       planning and disease prevention, both contraceptive and planned condom
       use reporting increased for the majority of subjects. However 22% of the
       sample indicated that they intended to reduce condom use in the future
       and instead use a contraceptive which protects from pregnancy but not
       from disease. Condom use was indicated more frequently for those who
       reported at least one risk factor for HIV, but 17% of those at risk
       indicated lower future condom use than past use. This suggests that
       without changes in risk behavior, these women will be at increased risk
       of HIV or another sexually transmitted disease.
