If you don't have any cuts or scratches, it is quite likely that you haven't catched anything.

Different STDs have different transfer rates and different
incubation periods. while you may have been exposed to
an STD, if you act promptly, you may be able to be treated
and to prevent further complications.

In the MA - Boston area, these are testing and treatment sites.

Dude,

Always take an alcohol based cleaning lotion with you. You can get them in small vials at yer drugstore. They kill 99.9% of bacteria and some viruses. After you do yer dirty immediately wipe down your equipment and keep your fingers crossed.

Proper condom use:

DO NOT use two condoms at once. Male condoms and female condoms should not be used at the same time. Placing two male condoms on a penis can raise the chance of tearing.

After sex play, throw away the condom. DO NOT REUSE it. Also, do not use the same condom if you engage in both vaginal and anal intercourse.

Intercourse:

The male condom is placed on a man's erect penis. Before putting on the condom, uncircumcised men may find it useful to pull back the foreskin. With one hand, squeeze a half-inch of the tip to remove air and leave room for semen. With your other hand, you can unroll the condom to the base of the penis. The band of latex at the open end of a male condom helps to keep it from slipping during intercourse.

After ejaculating, withdraw the penis before losing the erection. To keep sperm from leaking out, hold the condom on the penis during withdrawal. Throw away the condom and use a new one if sex continues. Maintain distance between you and your partner's genitals to help prevent infection or pregnancy. Sperm may still be on the penis after the condom is taken off.

Oral Sex:

Most people prefer using male condoms without spermicide for oral sex. You can also buy flavored male condoms.

For oral sex on a woman, male condoms can be used as dental dams to protect against the spread of infections. Cut off the closed tip of the condom. Make another cut along the side of the condom. This will give you a rectangular sheet. Place the sheet over the genitals or over a partner's mouth. Be careful to keep any areas of contact fully covered by the condom during oral sex. After oral sex, throw away the condom.

For oral sex on a man, the condom is placed on the penis as it would be for intercourse. After oral sex, throw away the condom.

Sex Toys:

If you and your partner choose to share a toy, like a dildo, using a male condom on the toy can help prevent the spread of infection. Change the condom between uses by different partners. DO NOT use the same condom for more than one person. In addition, wash the sex toy with soap and water when you are finished.


There is a chance that male condoms could break or slip during sex. If this occurs, women may consider taking Plan Bmergency Contraception (the 'Morning After' Pill) to prevent pregnancy.

Prevent Condom Failure

The most common causes of condom failure are breakage and slipping. To prevent a condom from breaking, make sure there is enough lubrication from natural secretions or a water-based lubricant. Dryness creates more friction and can tear a condom.

To keep a condom from slipping off, make sure the rim stays near the base of the penis during intercourse. This is especially important at the end of intercourse as the penis is withdrawn. Either partner can hold onto the rim.


Oil-based lubricants, like Vaseline or edible oils, weaken male condoms and make them less effective.

Store condoms in cool, dry places. Exposure to heat, such as a back-pocket wallet or a hot glove compartment can create microscopic holes. Most male condoms can be kept in their packages for about 2-3 years. Those with spermicide are usually effective for about 2 years. Check the condom's expiration date before using it with a partner.

Side Effects

If you or your partner experiences genital burning or itching, it may be a sign of an allergy to either the condom or spermicide used. If you used a latex condom, try using condoms without latex. You can also try a spermicide with different chemicals than the one you used.

Questions:

A lot of men carry condoms in their wallets. Is this a good idea?

No. Exposure to body heat, sunlight, and extreme cold can all damage condoms and make them more likely to break.

[Youngmc]

thanks for the replies... i beleive it was an atlas condom, that i got for free, my partner was a transexual, who is a friend, and i asked repeatedly and she assured me that she been tested and was clean, i dont wanna ask her again, but from her answer i feel confident, also i found out that it takes several minutes of penetration to contract hiv, which is what im most concerned about
