You thought Condoms were for Men? Think AGAIN!

For the first time, a challenging mass survey of 10,000 people was successfully conducted with such an informative and experimental activity towards women wellness and prevention. The survey was conducted at Mumbai’s strategic locations to gauge whether people were aware about female condoms and understand its growing potential in Indian market with respect to its awareness and acceptability. The survey consisted of multiple questions to understand the level of awareness, acceptability, openness, preference and outlook towards female condoms. 

Based on the study, India is a potentially huge market for female condoms. Moreover, female condoms can be a tool for empowering women, in the sense that women can now be in-charge of their safety with regards to sexual experiences. Given that a majority of respondents were the younger generation of the country, showed interest and enthusiasm towards female condoms, it would be safe to assume that India is progressing towards a better future for women, by leaving the decision of prevention and safety in their hands. 

The survey was strategically divided into 3 age groups covering 18-50 year old wide range of audience.
