Likely Reason While STD's are Spread

Once of the biggest reasons that sexually transmitted diseases are spread is not the lack of use of condoms, it is the fact that many STD's have no symptoms. By the time that some diseases become noticeable, it is too late and the disease may be incurable.

Every body reacts differently to sexual diseases. Some may experience synptoms and others may not. Here is a list of sexually transmitted diseases that carry little or no visible symptoms:

Chlamydia
Genital Herpes
Gonorrhea
HIV - symptoms may appears after 10 years
Human Papillomavirus
Hepatitis B

When people have no symptoms of STD's, they continue with sex and take no precautions against STDs, so the chance of spreading a sex disease greatly increases.
Even is a partner tells you that they are disease free, you must still take precautions and use protection because they may not even know that they have contracted a disease.

Sometimes using a condom is not enough as simply the act of touching an infected body part can spread the disease.

Luckily there are cures for some diseases and tests to diagnsoe STDs but it's up to each individual person to take precautions and to prevent STD's.

|If you are sexually active, get tested regularly because you may not have any sickness symptoms from sexually transmitted diseases and if you do contract an illness, it is your responsibility to take precautions to prevent the spread of the disease.

It Starts with a Condom

Have safe sex. You hear this message everywhere you go. Schools are moving from promoting abstinence to teaching students how to use condoms. This is where it all starts. Use a condom every time. No matter what.

Here is why you should use a condom every time you have sex. You are going to have sexual intercourse with someone who has probably had sexual intercourse with their fair share of partners. They have put their penis (have have their vagina inserted) by others, so when you have sex with someone, it's like having sex with all their partners too. If any sexually transmitted diseases have been left behind, you will catch them too.

Think about it exponentially, if you have sex with one person who has sex with 2 people, those people had sex with 2 people and so on. 2 sexual partners quickly and easily turn into hundreds of sexual partners. You see how easily it can be to transmit sexual diseases? Always use a condom. Hopefully, thinking about sex in mathematical perspectives will scare you into using condoms.
