Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) - also known as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and before them as venereal diseases - are a set of infectious and contagious clinical conditions that are transmitted from person to person through the sexual contact that occurs. almost exclusively, during sex. However, they can also be transmitted through the use of contaminated syringes or through contact with blood or other secretions, and some of them can be transmitted during pregnancy, during delivery or breastfeeding, from mother to child.
Most sexually transmitted diseases are caused by two types of germs: bacteria and viruses, but some are also caused by fungi and protozoa.
Prevention.
Timely sexual education to know the diseases of this type and the form of contagion.
Hygiene of the sexual organs; You should practice daily bathing with soap and careful drying of the genitals.
Use of protective mechanisms such as condoms or condoms when having sex.
Preservative.
Condoms or condoms provide protection when used correctly as a barrier to / from the area they cover. The uncovered areas are still susceptible to many STDs. An infected discharge in contact with a skin lesion that leads to the direct transmission of an STD would not be considered "sexual transmission", but it can occur theoretically during sexual contact; This can be avoided simply by not having sexual contacts when you have an open wound.
Los condones están diseñados, probados y manufacturados para no fallar si se usan apropiadamente, pero debe tenerse en cuenta que no ofrece una seguridad absoluta.
Proper use requires:
Do not put the condom too firm on the end, leaving 1 or 2 cm at the extremity for ejaculation. If the condom is placed too tight, it may fail.
Use a new condom for each sexual encounter.
Do not use a condom that is too loose, as it can cause the barrier to fail.
Do not turn the condom after you have finished, even if there has been no ejaculation.
Do not use condoms made with animal tissue, which protect against conception but not against HIV and other STDs.
Avoid leaving the condom in the heat because they can wear out.
Avoid the use of oil-based lubricants (or anything that contains oil) with latex condoms, as the oil can cause them to break.
Avoid double use of a condom, as the friction between them can cause them to break.
