The leading three drivers and trends driving the sexual wellness industry are discussed below:
Integration of Sex Education with Sexual Wellness
The use of contraceptives is primarily challenged by two major reasons - social compulsions warranting against their use and the lack of awareness about contraceptives among the most sexually active segment. The probability of teenagers engaging in unprotected sex was estimated to be 78% in 2010 with the same consistently falling to 60% after a series of awareness programs and initiatives. To prevent unwanted pregnancies and control the teenage pregnancy rate, the usage of birth controls and post-conception contraceptives is increased significantly. Also, sex education remains the major factor driving the use of contraceptives, including condoms. European countries strictly follow sex education in schools and teach teenagers about reproduction, contraception, and STDs. The US has a sex education program for students starting from the fifth grade to the twelfth grade. As teenagers are becoming aware of safe sex practices, the demand for condoms in the sexual wellness industry is expected to rise during the forecast period.

Mounting AIDS/HIV and STDs Instances
According to the UNAIDS, there were an estimated 36.9 million people living with HIV in 2017. Further, 1.1 million people died in the same year because of AIDS-related diseases. The UNAIDS reported that about 25.7 million people with HIV are living in sub-Saharan Africa, and Eastern and Southern Africa, witnessing a massive rise of 46% in new HIV-infected people in 2017. However, since 2010, the world has witnessed a 6% decrease in the number of infections globally due to an increased effort on the part of local governments, NGOs, and UN agencies working to reduce the effects of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Growing incidences of HIV cases worldwide have made governments, institutions, and NGOs to work toward reducing the prevalence of HIV by creating awareness about the virus, mode of transfer, and avail free contraceptives and condoms to promote safe sex and a healthy lifestyle. This increasing awareness about HIV and other sexually transmittable disease is expected to increase the demand for condoms and other contraceptives in the sexual wellness industry during the forecast period.

Accessibility of Digital Platforms
