Unveiling masturbatory sexual behaviours in Nigeria
Self- and mutual masturbation are highly prevalent among sexually active Nigerians, with distinct factors influencing each behaviour
A qualitative exploration of perceived risks, motivations, and risk management strategies among brothel-based female sex workers in Ibadan, Nigeria
Female sex workers (FSWs) experience a higher burden of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) compared to the general population due to the nature of their work. In Nigeria, challenges such as poverty, stigma, and poor access to healthcare continue to heighten their vulnerability, even though prevention programmes are in place. However, limited qualitative evidence exists on how FSWs perceive sexual …
Heterosexual Oral and Anal Sex
Working from home and intimate partner violence among cis-women during the Covid-19 pandemic
Working from home may increase IPV risk globally. Workplaces offering working from home should collaborate with support services and research interventions to strengthen resiliency against IPV
Sexual and reproductive health education and learning among Indigenous youth of the Comarca Ngäbe-Buglé, Panama
Indigenous adolescents and young people in Panama are at high-risk for sexually transmitted infections, due in part to limited access to condoms and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education. There is a paucity of evidence on how to develop sexual and reproductive health education programmes that incorporate different sources of learning. We used Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory to understand two key sources of learning: nonc…
Knowledge, use (misuse) and perceptions of over-the-counter analgesics in sub-Saharan Africa
BACKGROUND: Over-the-counter (OTC) analgesics are safe for pain-management when used as recommended. Misuse can increase the risk of hypertension and gastrointestinal problems. OBJECTIVE: To conduct a scoping review of the uses and misuses of OTC analgesics in sub-Saharan Africa, to inform strategies for correct use. METHOD: Following guidelines for conducting a scoping review, we systematically searched Pubmed, ResearchGate and Google Scholar da…
Understanding motives for intravaginal practices amongst Tanzanian and Ugandan women at high risk of HIV infection
Some types of intravaginal practices (IVP) may increase the risk for HIV acquisition. This is particularly worrisome for populations with dual high prevalence of HIV and IVP. Women involved in transactional sex are at increased risk for HIV infection in sub-Saharan Africa. Social, cultural and economic influences are strong drivers of IVP in this population. To explore this, we carried out a qualitative research study to investigate the drivers a…
Intravaginal and Menstrual Practices among Women Working in Food and Recreational Facilities in Mwanza, Tanzania
Intravaginal and menstrual practices may potentially influence results of trials of microbicides for HIV prevention through effects on the vaginal environment and on adherence to microbicide and placebo products. As part of the feasibility study for the Microbicides Development Programme Phase 3 trial of a vaginal microbicide in Mwanza, a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods were used to describe these practices, associations with beha…
