Sorry, meant contraceptives, duh. Also, I’m aware that they did have mildly scientifically backed methods for preventing pregnancy, but pregnancies are a genuine concern for modern sex workers, right? Did just way more sex workers get pregnant way more often back then, or were there genuinely methods to make pregnancy avoidable enough to not have a kid once a year if you’re having sex that much?

Contraceptives have been around for thousands of years, however, they’re not as nice as modern ones.
Animal intestines and skin can be a condom. Douching can clean out sperm. Any foreign objects in the uterus can act as an IUD, although not as effective as modern ones. Herbal remedies can induce spontaneous abortions. They also have physical means to abort a fetus.
