Medications are not used to prevent STDs, except in limited clinical trials or specialized circumstances. Survivors of sexual assault are offered medication after the assault to lower the risk of STDs. There are early trials for using anti-HIV medications to prevent transmission.

Which of the natural family planning methods prevents STDS?

Natural family planning (NFP) methods primarily focus on tracking fertile and infertile periods to avoid pregnancy, and they do not provide protection against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Abstinence during fertile periods can reduce the risk of STDs, but other NFP methods, such as the calendar method or basal body temperature method, do not inherently prevent STD transmission. To protect against STDs, the use of barriers like condoms is recommended alongside any family planning approach.
