About the episode

When it comes to preventing sexually transmitted infections there are limited options. And the options we do have - condoms - lack desirability, so much so that most of us avoid using them. Revolutionising the condom for the first time in over 100 years is Eudaemon Technologies. Their tech, Gel-dom, is turning a  ‘need to’ into a ‘want to’ which could have a major impact on the rates of STIs and unintended pregnancies. Greg Fisher, CEO of Qtopia, discusses the role of condoms in the fight against HIV/AIDS, and the mental and societal toll of STI stigma. And we meet Professor Deb Barton, a sexual health expert who deep dives into the importance of sexual health literacy and why choice in contraceptives is vital to ensure people stay safe and satisfied.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
