Condoms Aren't Foolproof: Why STI Disclosure Still Matters
Using internal and external condoms does not excuse non-disclosure of STIs.
Barrier methods, like condoms, do not cover the entire genital region.
Thus, STIs passed via skin-to-skin contact (like HPV, herpes, and syphilis) can still be passed even if using condoms.
This is why talking (or texting!) about your testing history with your partners matters, despite condom usage.
