How do men prevent sexually transmitted diseases? The most effective measures to prevent sexually transmitted diseases
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are a terrible disease, and they can also be infected. So, how can men prevent STDs? Let's introduce how men prevent sexually transmitted diseases.
Which diseases belong to sexually transmitted diseases?
Venereal diseases are sexually transmitted diseases. There are 8 recognized diseases in China, namely, AIDS, gonorrhea, syphilis, chancroid, venereal lymphogranuloma, chlamydial urethritis, condyloma acuminatum and genital herpes. Since the 1990s, the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases in China has increased significantly, and syphilis is the fastest, and has now ranked among the top infectious diseases.
There are five main ways of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases:
(1) Direct sexual contact infection
(2) Indirect contact infection
(3) Placental birth canal infection
(4) Iatrogenic transmission
(5) Communication in daily life
The most effective measures to prevent sexually transmitted diseases
1. Use of shielding tools: Ding Ding sleeve, vaginal diaphragm and other tools can not only prevent contraception, but also prevent a variety of sexually transmitted diseases. Experiments have proved that Dingdingtao has a barrier effect on pathogens causing gonorrhea, syphilis, genital herpes, condyloma acuminatum, AIDS, cytomegalovirus inclusion body disease, chlamydia infection and other sexually transmitted diseases. In addition, grommets and vaginal diaphragms can also reduce friction damage during sexual intercourse and protect the external genitalia from contact with hidden infectious secretions.
2. The barrier tool is used in combination with spermicide: the butyl sleeve and uterine cap with spermicide as lubricant are used, which have both mechanical and chemical killing effects. A contraceptive sponge made of spermicide and sponge is very popular abroad. It can be placed in the vagina for more than 30 hours before or during sexual intercourse.
3. Avoid sexual intercourse in case of abnormality: When the external genitals of sexual partners are found to have lesions, ulcers or abnormal secretions, sexual intercourse should be avoided, and they should be required to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
4. Keep clean: This is a very safe and simple prevention method. Many sexually transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhea, genital herpes, condyloma acuminatum, nongonococcal urethritis, AIDS, are asymptomatic at the initial stage or at a mild stage, and cannot be identified in time after infection. Only by keeping clean and avoiding extramarital sex can we avoid the risk of sexually transmitted diseases.
5. Urination, flushing vulva or lavage after sexual intercourse: It has been confirmed that urination within half an hour after sexual intercourse or flushing genitals within one hour after sexual intercourse can not reduce the risk of gonorrhea. However, if the vagina is irrigated with antiseptic solution every day, it has certain effect on preventing gonorrhea.
