As a contraceptive tool, condoms also play a role in preventing sexually transmitted diseases. Can condoms prevent sexually transmitted diseases?
1、 The role of condoms
First, correct use of condoms can prevent gonorrhea, herpes and other sexually transmitted infections
Second, condoms can prevent male semen and vaginal secretions from communicating during sexual activities, and prevent male and female genital ulcer contact
Third, condoms can also prevent the human immunodeficiency virus of AIDS from infecting HIV. For people at high risk of sexually transmitted diseases and HIV infection, it is particularly important to use condoms to protect people who are not infected.
Therefore, in order to effectively implement contraceptive measures and prevent sexually transmitted diseases and HIV infection, it is important to use condoms correctly.
2、 Can condoms prevent sexually transmitted diseases?
Condoms are not safe, and you will get sexually transmitted diseases if you wear them!
In the name of safety, condoms and helmets greatly depend on our life and work. Their responsibility is to ensure our safety! However, occasionally condoms also have dereliction of duty. Many men say that wearing condoms is not safe when infected with sexually transmitted diseases?
From the medical point of view, the common sexually transmitted diseases in clinic include gonorrhea, venereal lymphogranuloma, nongonococcal urethritis, syphilis, condyloma acuminatum, genital herpes, and soft prickly heat.
So far, the author has not seen any special report on the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases by condoms, especially human papillomavirus (HPV). Verruca and herpes can also be transmitted in non-sexual communication because of the filtration hidden in the human body during the whole life.
Poison may also be exposed through sexual organs, such as scrotum contact with diseases around the female perineum and anus, and skin and mucous membrane contact of anal and oral sex may also be infected. Even if condoms are used, they cannot completely cover all disease parts.
Therefore, ulcers in other parts can also cause transmission. Besides, lesions such as blisters that cannot be seen by the naked eye may also transmit the virus to sexual partners. Of course, other non-herpetic diseases can also be transmitted in this way.
In recent years, the number of female STD patients has increased rapidly, and now the proportion of male and female STD patients has reached 1.4:1.
It has been reported that history has proved that condoms are not fully qualified for the mission of STD epidemic prevention and control. The arrival of the condom culture cannot reduce the epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases, because the condom insurance has led to the loss of vigilance, but has increased.
