As a woman who has sex with women (WSW), you may not always identify yourself as a lesbian, or bisexual.
Many WSW had their first sexual experience with a man, have had multiple experiences with men, or still have sex with men. HIV transmission is a risk between women through fingering/fisting, oral sex and sharing sex toys.
The risk is lower than sex involving a man because less bodily fluids are exchanged between women.
Access regular sexual health check ups for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV testing. 
  • Sex is safer when none of your partner’s bodily fluids (vaginal secretions, breast milk or blood - including menstruation) enter your body.
  • Ensure your partner’s fluids do not enter your vagina, mouth or any cuts. 
  • Wash your hands before and after sex.
  • Use plenty of lube for fingering or fisting, especially for the anus.
  • Use latex gloves, especially if you have a cut or sore on your hands. 
  • Avoid oral sex if you or your partner have cuts or sores in or around the mouth, or if the receiving partner is menstruating.
  • Use a dental dam, or a condom cut open between the vagina/anus and mouth to prevent STI or HIV transmission. 
  • Wash sex toys before and after use and between partners.
  • Use a new condom every time sex toys are shared.
  • Use sex toys carefully to prevent drawing blood.
  • You have the right to:

    • refuse sex
    • have sex with women
    • practice safer sex.
