Bisexual Health Tips

In March of 2007, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force published a report specifically addressing bisexual health, which is often ignored in the discussion of health among self-identified members of the LGBTQ community.
Sexual health issues affecting bisexuals have been largely ignored and underrepresented in academic and professional literature. Many bisexuals have negative experiences with health care providers, whether it is because they are afraid to come out to their providers or because their providers give them improper or incomplete information on HIV/STI prevention.

Their report serves as an introduction to bisexuality and a model programming guide for HIV/STI prevention.
