How to protect yourself from sexually transmitted diseases?


Sexually transmitted infections at the time of sexual intimacy, as well as not having severe symptoms and proceeding in a special way, can be classified as venereal. Therefore, it should be concluded that such infections are fairly common, and yet have unpleasant consequences leading to adverse health outcomes. Also, venereal diseases can affect the reproductive system, thereby disrupting its proper functioning, which in turn can lead to infertility. As for infection with sexually transmitted diseases, they are caused by sexual intimacy. As well as various types of sexual relationships can lead to the development of these diseases to varying degrees.


Hazard Categories

Among the most secure contacts include relationships in a sexual relationship with one regular partner, for example, a married man. At the same time, you must be sure of its initially healthy state, and also to know for sure that it is in close relations only with you. A safe contact is also the use of various sexual toys to achieve pleasure. Erotic massage, close contact with bodies, touching each other, but only with bodies, as well as all kinds of caresses and tenderness, touching the body with the help of the tongue, all-like actions refer to a safe path of erotic intimacy. And here a few sexual partners, that is already more than one, increases the risks of sexually transmitted diseases.

The low degree of danger of infection with these infections occurs in kisses, involving the tongue, penetrating the mouth of the second half, as well as various types of petting, in oral sex and all sorts of sexual relations, but using a condom.

By the middle stage of the likelihood of acquiring a sexually transmitted infection can be attributed sex oral plan, without using a condom, and plus everything, not with a constant partner, but with random ones.

It is worth noting that the risk of infection is high in the case when the sexual act itself, both vaginal and anal, occurs without using a condom and with a casual partner.

What kind of protection can not be relied on?

There are a number of folk ways that a lot of people mistakenly use. The fact is that there are various methods that can be attributed to non-traditional ones. It is generally believed that such ways of protection can be relied upon. But this is just a general myth that must be dispelled. For example, such an assumption that washing the sex organs with ordinary soap can be guaranteed to be protected from various kinds of infections is nothing more than a myth. The use of soap as personal hygiene is certainly very effective, but only in this case. Also, an important place is given to syringing with certain solutions of various antiseptics. The risk of infection with sexually transmitted diseases can decrease slightly. But only to decrease, but not completely. The probability of infection is still there.

The above described methods are by no means as harmless as they may appear at first sight. The fact is that with enough frequent use of douching, or washing the sexual organs with soap, you can disrupt the microflora, and also affect not the best way on the mucous membrane. Thus, it is possible to provoke the development of vaginosis, which in turn only contributes to the development of venereal infection.

Medications

Today there is a huge selection of various medications. Such remedies can protect against unwanted pregnancy, and also can prevent the emergence of various infections. It is worth noting that any pharmacy can guarantee protection in more than 70%. If both partners decide to protect themselves, all possible options should be considered and their positive and negative indicators should be compared.

Condoms

With the help of a condom you can protect yourself from the possibility of infection with various infections, and also it will save you from the onset of unwanted pregnancy.

There is an erroneous opinion that the condom guarantees a one hundred percent guarantee. But this is completely wrong. Any medical employee will be able to characterize his protection not more than 60-70%.

The condom has pores through which a number of infections can penetrate, such as genital herpes, the papilloma virus, and even the infection is hepatitis B. It should also be noted that the condom can not protect against lice or syphilis.

A plus for a condom is that there are no contraindications to it unless it is allergic to the material, latex or the lubricant that it is processed. And side effects are not observed. On the purchase of a condom, there are no restrictions on either accessibility or price.

Spermicidal form of protection

Spermicides can include such drugs as medicines or ointments and all kinds of cream. The main task of the dasgs is to prevent pregnancy. But as their additional function is protection and preventive maintenance of diseases of venereal origin.

Scientists have conducted numerous experiments on this subject and have come to the conclusion that as a protection, this remedy is completely inadequate. Therefore, you can use a condom in parallel with the spermicidal means. Thus, protection will become more effective.

Ways of urgent prophylaxis

There are cases when timely prevention is impossible. Very urgently it is necessary to take emergency actions after the sexual act has already been accomplished. And in this case, do not rely on a 100% guarantee of the used funds.

In such a case bactericidal agents having antiseptic action can help. Such drugs can destroy a variety of viruses and all kinds of fungi. They include the following: miramistin or betadine. These drugs are designed for douching or dewatering. As a rule, they are sold already with a dispenser and convenient capacity, and more detailed information on the use of it can be obtained in the instruction, which is also attached.

Such a method of protection against venereal diseases is not used on a regular basis. After saving you from unfavorable microbes, it sweeps out everything necessary for the normal work of the organism. For example, it does not have the best effect on the microflora, which, in turn, is necessary for the formation of our immunity.

In the event that you used one of these methods, but after a short period of time noticed a change in the condition of the polyvinylchloride, contact a specialist urgently.
