STD’s, The gift that keeps on giving.
Make sure you don’t get a one gift that you can’t casually get rid of as the months change. Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) are on the increase. After years of sexual prevention methods being targeted toward HIV, we have forgotten that sex also puts us at risk for other STD’s. So, when you are thinking about keeping yourself and your partner safe always remember to include BOTH HIV and STD in your thoughts.
Some common STD’s include: Chancroids Chlamydia Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Genital Warts Gonorrhea Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Herpes HIV Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Molluscum Contagiosum Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Pubic Lice Scabies Syphilis Trichomoniasis Urinary Tract Infections.
STD WATCH!
Not all STD’s have symptoms or signs, especially those in our ass.
Signs to look out for:
Sores, blisters or small pimple like irritations on or near your mouth, butt or dick.
In some cases, a white or yellowish drip or discharge from your dick will occur.
If it stings, burns or is painful when you piss or shit.
You find yourself having to piss often.
A persistent redness or swelling in your throat.
Fevers, aches and other flu-like symptoms.
In some instances, swelling in or around your dick or butt.
At the fist sign or symptom - call your doctor or visit your local clinic for an appointment. Don’t have sex until after you have seen your doctor. You may pass on the STD to another person. If you are sexually active, especially if you are fucking or getting fucked with out rubbers, test on a regular basis. That means anywhere from every 3 - 6 months.
