Background: Sexual health is a necessary part of any society because it significantly influences the quality of life. Women's knowledge regarding STIs and safe sex practices in Saudi Arabia has not been thoroughly investigated; therefore, this study aims to investigate and measure the knowledge and the determinants of sexual health and STIs among women in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: This study is a nationwide cross-sectional survey conducted through phone interviews in Saudi Arabia in 2021.
