Formative research was conducted in El Salvador and Nicaragua to inform promotion of female condoms to sex workers. Two rounds of focus groups with sex workers were conducted, with female condom training and supplies provided. Structured interviews with sex workers and direct observations of health educators were conducted. One third of sex acts were protected with female condoms in the previous 7 days. Women recommended nonpaying partners as "first try" partners but most frequently reported trying female condoms with clients. With clients, women preferred female condoms over male condoms but expressed no preference with nonpaying partners. Lack of exposure to female condoms among men and women was cited as a key barrier to female condom use. Strategies for persuading all partner types to try the female condom are suggested, and we provided promotional messages, based on results, to assist sex workers in introducing female condoms to different partners.
