Emergency Prevention of Sexual Infections

Emergency prevention of sexually transmitted infections

It is easy to pick up a sexually transmitted infection from a casual partner, especially without the rules of intimate hygiene. Prevention means are divided into mechanical and chemical.

Condoms

The condom protects against large microorganisms and has been used since the 17th century. It copes worse with viruses. Buy in advance at the pharmacy, where there is a large selection.

Cons: erection may weaken, protection is not 100%, occasionally they break. Men don't like the feeling.

Candles and pastes

Women use Pharmatex type suppositories, which form a protective foam. Worse than a condom.

Antiseptics

After contact, go to the toilet and wash with soap. Use betadine, hibitan, miramistin, cidipol - they kill pathogens. Not 100% guaranteed.

Medicines

In a few days, start prevention. Self-medication with antibiotics is dangerous, prescribed by a venereologist.

To summarize, the main thing is to avoid risky contacts. If in doubt, consult a doctor. Take care of yourself!
