Data analysis carried out was prior analysis in the field, analysis during the field and analysis after in the field. The informants in this study were 9 people taken from the principle of adequacy. From the results of this study obtained that the CSWs already know about condoms and the benefits of using condoms, however, they rarely know the terms STIs or STDs. CSWs do not agree to contact if customers do not want to use condoms. The motivation for using condoms is for fear of contracting the disease. Condoms have been provided by the local health center and distributed to brothel owners at the Jondul location and then distributed to the prostitutes. However, the CSWs do not use condoms that have been given and prefer to use condoms that they buy themselves at the pharmacy. The type of condom used in the Jondul location is a male condom. It is suggested to health workers to prioritize health promotion efforts on the use of condoms to sex workers to reduce PMS numbers.
