The sexual health products market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for sexual health products has seen robust growth in the past few years. The market is projected to increase from $120.93 billion in 2024 to $132.77 billion in 2025, experiencing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%.
This growth during the historic period can be credited to various factors including heightened public consciousness, better access to healthcare, breakthroughs in pharmaceutical research, evolving social perceptions towards sexual health, and the advent of specialized therapies.
The sexual health products market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the market size of sexual health products is projected to witness substantial growth, reaching $191.14 billion by 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%.
This growth during the forecast period is due to factors such as enhanced awareness, an increase in sexual health problems, wider access to healthcare, and a heightened demand for tailored solutions. Anticipated trends for the forecast period include a rising demand for custom treatments, progress in digital health solutions, a greater emphasis on mental and emotional health, the escalation of telemedicine services, and a growing fascination with natural and holistic treatments.
The heightened understanding of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections is predicted to drive the expansion of the sexual health products market. HIV is a virus that progressively deteriorates the immune system's CD4 cells. The focus of the awareness campaigns is to inform the populace about how HIV is transmitted, ways to prevent it, testing options, and the significance of treatment. Sexual health products, which encompass condoms and HIV self-testing kits, aid in thwarting HIV infections by encouraging practices that involve safer sex and by enabling quick detection. As per the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (2022-2025) report issued by the White House Office of National AIDS, an institution of the US Domestic Policy Council, in December 2023, the strategy plans to achieve a 90% decrease in new HIV infections by 2030, exceeding the 75% reduction goal established for 2025, thus illustrating a strong determination to significantly reduce HIV prevalence. Hence, the escalating understanding of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections is fuelling the growth of the sexual health products market.

Leading companies in the sexual health products sector are concentrating on the creation of innovative offerings such as graphene-thinnest condoms to amplify user satisfaction and cater to the increasing demand for high-performance, discrete, and comfortable products. Graphene-thinnest condoms denote condoms made from graphene, a groundbreaking material that provides ultra-thin yet robust and enduring protection, thereby increasing comfort and sensitivity for users. For example, in October 2023, premium condoms and lubricants producer, ONE Condoms, from the US, introduced the globe's first graphene condom, known as ONE Flex. This condom is touted as one of the thinnest available and boasts a transfer of body heat 85% higher than standard latex condoms. The unique hybrid structure of ONE Flex merges graphene with natural rubber latex, leading to increased comfort and sensation. Clinical trials indicate a preference for ONE Flex over tradition latex condoms at a ratio of two to one, implying higher user contentment. These condoms, which have gained FDA approval for the prevention of STIs and unplanned pregnancies, are accessible online and in selected Walgreens outlets.
