Patterns of condom acquisition and its association with consistent use among young men in Nigeria.

There is limited information about the influence of condom acquisition patterns on consistent condom use. Research is required to identify the relative extent of consistent condom use among individuals who always obtain condoms free, or who always have mixed procurement of free and purchased condoms or who always purchase condoms. The study analysed condom acquisition and sexual behaviour practices of 372 young men and logistic regression was analysed to determine whether condom acquisition practice was a predictor of consistent condom use.
