How to Protect Yourself from STDs and STIs
There has always been an ongoing debate about safe sex, including what it entails and how one can practice it. The general notion of safe sex involves having sex with only one partner who has only engaged in sexual activity with you, and neither of you has sexually transmitted diseases or infections (STDs or STIs). However, this notion is not without contradictions, and many doctors believe that no form of sex is entirely risk-free. Despite this, by taking certain precautions and adopting safe behaviors, we can significantly reduce the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases.
Steps to Protect Yourself from STDs and STIs
Use Condoms Consistently and Correctly:
- Latex condoms are highly effective in preventing most STDs and STIs.
- Ensure that condoms are used correctly from start to finish during every sexual encounter.
Get Vaccinated:
- Vaccines are available for certain STDs, such as HPV and hepatitis B. Ensure you and your partner are up-to-date with these vaccinations.
