The early invention of condoms was not for contraception, but to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, so they were called penile condoms, condoms, lucky bags, etc. Now the widespread prevalence of AIDS makes condoms more popular with men, but the analogy is that the disease that jacket can prevent does not know one kind of AIDS. Here is a brief introduction.
1. Preventing ectopic pregnancy
Ectopic pregnancy, also known as ectopic pregnancy. Condoms can prevent sperm from entering the vagina, thus preventing pregnancy and preventing ectopic pregnancy. For women with ectopic pregnancy such as salpingitis, underdeveloped or malformed fallopian tubes, endometriosis, or underdeveloped uterus, using a condom for contraception is better than using a contraceptive ring.
2. Preventing cervical cancer
Cervical cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, with many causes, among which it is related to viruses and smegma that come into contact with her husband's semen. Condoms can prevent semen and smegma from entering the vagina and have a certain preventive effect on cervical cancer.
3. Prevention of sexually transmitted diseases
Experiments have proved that latex condoms can effectively isolate some pathogens of sexually transmitted diseases, such as simple rash virus, chlamydia trachomatis, cytomegalovirus, gonococcus, syphilis spirochete, HIV, etc., and can prevent gonorrhea, syphilis, AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
4. Prevention of vaginitis, cervicitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease
When men suffer from urinary and reproductive organ infections, sexual intercourse can transmit pathogenic bacteria to women, causing vaginitis, intrauterine inflammation, and pelvic inflammatory disease. The use of condoms can prevent pathogenic bacteria from infecting women on the male genitalia, which has a preventive effect on these diseases. On the contrary, when women suffer from vaginitis, condoms can also prevent pathogenic bacteria from infecting men.
5. Preventing semen allergies
Semen hypersensitivity is an allergic phenomenon that occurs when women come into contact with male semen. Shortly after sexual intercourse, women experience itching and swelling in the external genitalia, chest tightness, shortness of breath, local itching, and a rash like wind lump. Generally, various symptoms disappear after 3 hours. Semen allergies can affect the sexual life of both spouses, and women often feel terrifying about sexual intercourse. After using a condom, do not let the wife come into contact with her husband's semen to avoid semen allergies.
6. Treating infertility
After vaginal contact with sperm, women produce anti sperm antibodies, which prevent sperm fertilization and infertility. Women with this type of infertility use condoms during each sexual intercourse to avoid contact between sperm and the vagina, and do not produce anti sperm antibodies. The titers of anti sperm antibodies that have already been produced in the body gradually decrease. Generally, after continuous use of condoms for 6-12 months, these anti sperm antibodies almost disappear. At this point, one can choose to have sexual intercourse without using condoms on ovulation day, achieving pregnancy goals with a rate of 40% to 60%.
In addition, if men want condoms to truly achieve the aforementioned prevention and treatment effects, they need to avoid using scented condoms or patterned condoms. This is because spice type condoms may become infected and cause vaginal inflammation in women. Experts say that chemicals not only alter the odor of the vagina, but also alter the acid-base balance of the vagina, promoting the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and yeast.
A patterned condom with multiple particles and protruding threads can increase friction and stimulation on the vaginal wall, better pleasing women. However, coarse latex particles can easily cause cracks in the condom, greatly reducing the contraceptive effect, and may inadvertently lead to recruitment. It is best not to use this product. Choosing this product not only focuses on women's vaginal health, but also strengthens contraceptive measures.
