Always remember these 3 important pointers:<BR/> *Choose partners selectively.<BR/> Have sex to that only person whom you really love. <BR/><BR/> *Discuss sexual history with a partner; don’t let embarrassment compromise health.<BR/> Just ask him what is his sexual history without offending him.<BR/><BR/> *Always insist that a male partner use a latex condom for genital, oral, and anal sex, unless you are in a long-standing, mutually monogamous relationship. <BR/> This will not only keep you from being pregnant, but more importantly, it would keep you from risks of having STIs. You should protect yourself.<BR/><BR/> *Keep medically fit and have a regular physical exam, including a Pap test and other tests to identify sexually transmitted infections if you are at risk.<BR/> Have a regular check up. If curable STIs are detected earlier, there would be a bigger possibility that it would be cured.labor lawyer manilahttp://www.kittelsoncarpo.com/about-us/corporate-labor-lawyer-philippinesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730657139931062421.post-34855029127793646062009-04-12T15:58:00.000-05:002009-04-12T15:58:00.000-05:00I think it's definitely something that needs to be...I think it's definitely something that needs to be addressed in sex education classes, but having an STI doesn't make people sexual pariahs. I'm sure there are certainly resources at sexual health centers that can address prevention, especially when someone knows they have something. <BR/><BR/>It's better to know and tell than to not say anything at all.lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13285797515594923013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730657139931062421.post-25684328629234735102009-04-09T11:04:00.000-05:002009-04-09T11:04:00.000-05:00@Mike:I am not someone who would ever try to tell ...@Mike:<BR/><BR/>I am not someone who would ever try to tell consenting adults when it is ok or not ok to have sex. Although it is true that barrier methods are not absolutely foolproof when it comes to the spreading of STIs, in my mind, safe sex means informed sex. If you or your partner have an STI, it should be discussed, and the options should be laid out for how to handle the situation. If both agree that you still want to have sex, and agree on a method of protection, I do believe it is safe sex. Of course, there are still risks, but because they have been accounted for, I think it's safe. I do not think that because one has an STI that one should never be allowed to have sex. It just means that talking about sexual history becomes much more important.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884754298018500343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730657139931062421.post-51937128166059782009-04-09T01:51:00.000-05:002009-04-09T01:51:00.000-05:00Amelia,I agree that it is certainlytrue that just ...Amelia,<BR/>I agree that it is certainly<BR/>true that just because your partner has an STI doesn't mean you can't have sex. With that being said, if you know this information and have sex anyway, at that point are you really practicing safe sex? You can try to be as careful as possible and take all the precautions you want, but there isn't anything out there with enough force to fully prevent the transmission of an infection. The point of safe sex is to prevent such diseases, but if you continue to have sex you are really playing with fire and it is only a matter of time.

And I think that it should also be stated explicitly that just because one's partner has an STI doesn't mean that they can't have sex. It just means that both of have to be extra diligent when it comes to using the right kind of protection in the correct manner every time.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884754298018500343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730657139931062421.post-44695622598340086702009-04-08T07:43:00.000-05:002009-04-08T07:43:00.000-05:00"Discuss sexual history with a partner; don’t let ..."Discuss sexual history with a partner; don’t let embarrassment compromise health."<BR/><BR/>I understand and agree that this is important, but I never see followups on how to deal with it if your partner discloses that they may have an STI. It's a really messy conversation, and sex ed needs to address how to have it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730657139931062421.post-91136674673550093662009-04-07T15:00:00.000-05:002009-04-07T15:00:00.000-05:00Great post with a great message!

Definitely a topic I have not given much thought to. :) <BR/><BR/>Also, I have never heard of vaginal atrophy, and while the name really explains it on a basic level...whaaa? Great. It really feels like sometimes I still know very little about my body and what can happen to it.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884754298018500343noreply@blogger.com
