72% of World Population Lazy Wear Condoms


The use of condoms and contraceptives to prevent transmission of sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies. But many people are still reluctant to implement it. Even thought most of the people in the world are reluctant to use condoms when having sex with a new partner.
In a multi-national survey sponsored by the first international health organizations, found that 72% of the world population do not use contraception when having sex with a new partner. This risk of transmitting AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
The survey, published in the World Contraception Day was conducted in 26 countries and 5426 young people in the Asia Pacific region, including India, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Korea, Pakistan, Taiwan, Europe, Latin America and the United States. While in Egypt, Kenya and Uganda, the number of people surveyed was 600 people.
In countries such as Australia, Chile, Colombia, Britain, Indonesia, Lithuania, Mexico, Poland, Singapore, Sweden and Turkey, nearly 40% of the population having sex without a condom with a new partner. In China, Estonia, Kenya, Norway and Thailand, the figure rose to over 50%.
"This suggests that young people lack good knowledge about sexual health or feel reluctant to ask for contraception," said Rajat Ray, chairman of the Committee on Public Awareness and regular gynecological Federation of Obstetric Societies of India (FOGSI) as reported by Mid-Day.com, Sunday ( 26.08.2012).
Ray added that this could be due to the high number of young people have not been able to negotiate contraceptive use with their partners. When asked why have sex without a condom, 15% of respondents in Asia Pacific and 14% in Europe that is not like contraception.
Some 16% of respondents in Asia Pacific said their partner preferred if not using contraception. Another reason put forward 32% of respondents from India who said his sexual relationship would not be at risk of pregnancy. On the other hand, 42% of Asia Pacific respondents admitted embarrassed to buy contraceptives, while the number of respondents in India embarrassed as much as 40%.
"The lack of accurate information about contraception leads to the use of contraceptives is not accurate or even are reluctant to wear them. This is a big problem in India," said Vishwanath Koliwad, secretary general of the Family Planning Association of India (FPAI).
Unplanned pregnancies are now starting to emerge as a global problem, particularly among young people. Around the world, there are about 41% of the 208 million pregnancies in the world are unwanted pregnancies every year.
