The objective of this study is to evaluate acceptability of the PATH Woman's Condom among user populations in Mexico, South Africa and Thailand.
A nonrandomized, nonblinded, nonsignificant risk study was conducted among 20 couples per site. Data were collected via structured questionnaires after the first, second and third condom uses and through in-depth interviews after all condoms were used.
Women from all sites reported that the PATH Woman's Condom was easy and comfortable to insert, and the pouch and ring were very stable during use. Both women and men reported that the comfort and sensation of sex while using the condom was acceptable.
The PATH Woman's Condom is easy to use, stable during use, comfortable and satisfactory during sex among users from diverse populations and cultures. The iterative user-driven product development process helped ensure that this new product addresses a wide range of user preferences.

在每个地点对20对夫妇进行了一项非随机、非盲法、低风险研究。在首次、第二次和第三次使用避孕套后，通过结构化问卷收集数据，并在所有避孕套使用后通过深入访谈收集数据。
来自所有地点的女性报告称，PATH女性避孕套易于插入且使用舒适，袋状物和环在使用过程中非常稳定。男性和女性都报告说，使用避孕套时的性舒适度和感觉是可以接受的。
PATH女性避孕套易于使用，在使用过程中稳定，在不同人群和文化的用户中性生活时舒适且令人满意。迭代的用户驱动产品开发过程有助于确保这款新产品满足广泛的用户偏好。
