Tell your partner if you have a sexually transmitted diseasePosted by Mike bale on January 2nd, 2020 Safe sex is incredibly important. When you sleep with someone without protection, you inherit all of the diseases and bacteria from every partner that your partner had previously slept with. Some STDs / STIs are virtually free of symptoms, and if not caught, can spread toxins to your blood causing you to go septic. Chlamydia, HIV, and Trichomoniasis are among the many STD's you can contract that don't have symptoms alerting you that you have them. Before you have sex with someone new, it's important to ask them about their history of infection and make sure they've been checked recently. Even so, it is important to use protection. Protective devices are inexpensive - αγορά cialis στην ελλάδα. Latex condoms are among the cheapest, and there are also non-latex options made of polyurethane. They can be used for anal sex, vaginal sex or oral sex on a penis. For exclusively female relations, there are small pieces of latex called dental dams or latex barriers that go over the opening of the vagina. Always clean sex toys (dildos, anal plugs, etc) with hot, soapy water before and after each use. Safe sex can mean life or death. Some of the STDs that can kill you include Hepatitis B, HIV and HPV. HPV can cause cervical cancer in women. There is now a three step vaccination to protect against HPV that most women / young girls will typically get at their pediatrician around the age of puberty. Some STI's are for life, such has the Herpes virus. Herpes will infect the blood and cause flare-ups around the mouth, lips specifically, and the genitals. During a flare up, sex is not reccomended if you have open sores. Make sure to always tell partners if you have an STD, and get checked for any contractions after each new partner. Abstinence or monogamy (having one partner) is also a form of protection against sexually transmitted diseases. Getting checked for diseases is easy and inexpensive. It is offered at planned parenthood and most local health department agencies. You can also get free condoms or dental dams at most gynecology offices, free clinics, and health departments. Many people have conflicting opinions on teaching teens about safe sex, but I think it is critical. Teenagers are going to have sex regardless, as they have for thousands of years, and it's important that they know the consequences of unsafe sex. When menstruation begins, teens can get pregnant immediately. That is only one of the concerns that teenagers need to be informed of. If you have a teenage child, please be aware that teaching them about safe sex will not cause them to have sex any faster, and it will protect them from diseases that could lead to pregnancy or even death if gone untreated. For teens and adults, It's important to be in the know about all you can do to protect yourself and still enjoy sex, which is a natural need and fun part of adult life.
