I believe that most adults are familiar with condoms, but their understanding of condoms is still relatively shallow. Many people believe that condoms are highly safe, so they are more daring during sexual intercourse. So can condoms prevent sexually transmitted diseases?
Sexually transmitted diseases refer to a group of diseases that are mainly transmitted through sexual contact. Sexually transmitted diseases may sound scary and difficult to treat, but infectious diseases cannot be treated. So, male friends must raise awareness and have a correct understanding of sexually transmitted diseases. There are some common early symptoms of male sexually transmitted diseases in the early stages. If they can be detected in a timely manner and treated with a doctor, the therapeutic effect will be very good. Experts have conducted a comprehensive analysis of the five common sexually transmitted diseases.
1、 Can wearing condoms prevent sexually transmitted diseases?
1. When there are holes or cracks on the surface of the condom, disease microorganisms such as vaginal Neisseria gonorrhoeae can still be infected through the holes. How high is the Factor of safety of condoms against sexually transmitted diseases? The tear rate of ordinary quality condoms is 1%, and that of high-quality condoms is 1 ‰. However, when encountering oneself, the probability of infection is 100%.
2. How high is the Factor of safety for STD prevention? In addition, almost all of Almost all sexually transmitted viruses are very small. For example, AIDS is less than 1/2000 of the size of sperm, and it is easy to feel small cracks through condoms. Therefore, even if condoms are effective in contraception, they may not necessarily be effective in preventing sexually transmitted diseases.
3. Even if the penis is not in direct contact with the vagina, if the other party's Genital wart or Genital herpes occurs on the outside of the Labia majora or pubic hair, vulva and other places stained with secretions, it will also be transmitted to the other party through sexual life. Condoms cannot prevent skin contact such as penis root, nor can they ensure that the secretions discharged from the other's genitals will not contaminate their own body and penis. How high is the Factor of safety of condoms against sexually transmitted diseases? In terms of anti gonorrhea, the Relative risk of condom use is 25-50% for men and 70-80% for women.
2、 Condoms are not 100% safe
From the perspective of actual prevention of sexually transmitted diseases and contraceptive effectiveness, condoms are not 100% safe and still pose certain risks. If there is a problem with the quality of condoms, they not only cannot resist the pathogenic microorganisms of sexually transmitted diseases, but are also prone to breakage during sexual activity, increasing the risk of accidents. Therefore, even safer condoms have limited safety and can only reduce this risk to a certain extent, and cannot guarantee 100% safety. In order to prevent the infection and transmission of sexually transmitted diseases, it is necessary to clean oneself, seek treatment as soon as possible, and provide personal rehabilitation care and prevention.
