The sexual risk context among the FEM-PrEP study population in Bondo, Kenya and Pretoria, South Africa

This paper describes the major themes related to participants’ behavioral characteristics that emerged from quantitative, face-to-face interviews and qualitative, semi-structured interviews about participants’ sexual relationships: Sexual concurrency, by both the participants and their sexual partners, was commonplace; transactional sex was uncommon; the HIV status of partners was often unknown; condom usage was generally low or infrequent; and risk perception was low.
