Condom broke or slipped? - Sex Worker Outreach Project (SWOP) ACT
CONDOM BREAK or SLIP poster
  1. Stop the service immediately. Don't panic. Don't douche.
  2. Were you the receptive person or insertive person?
    • Receptive person: squat and cough to squeeze seminal fluid from vagina or anus with your muscles.
    • Insertive person: Pass urine and wash penis especially under the foreskin.
  3. Do you need to take a break from work? Is there a friend or another worker you can talk to?
  4. No contraception? Get emergency contraception - the sooner the better (within 5 days).
  5. What about sexually transmitted infections? Have tests and get antibiotics. Worried about HIV? Find out about PEP.
  6. Keep you follow-up appointments for results and further tests.
  7. When you're ready... Can you figure out why the condom broke? What would you do differently next time?
