Did you know that condoms can prevent STDs? Get protected and avoid being infected!

There are many kinds of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).More than half of all of us will get an STD at some time in our lives, and most people that have an STD do not have any physical symptoms. Super scary and super common! While some STD’s can be treated and cured, others cannot, andsometimes, the consequences can bevery serious.

The good news is that there are easy and cheap ways to prevent STD’s.  The best way to prevent getting an STDs is not to have sex! But if you do, using condoms can definitely reduce your chances of getting or giving an STD.  Condoms work by forming a barrier between the penis and anus, vagina, or mouth. The condom keeps one partner's fluids from getting into or on the other, which is how STD’s are transmitted. 

Furthermore, it’s always good to get tested once a year or after every new sexual partner to make sure that if you do have an STD, you treat it immediately before the disease causes greater harm to your body and reproductive organs.  Keeping these organs healthy is critical to your over-all health, and your ability to have babies in the future.

Condoms come in all sizes, and are made of various materials for those who happen to be allergic to regular latex condoms.  The key is to find the perfect fit for you and your partner.  Visit a local clinic and explore all the options you have when it comes to condoms.  Whether you like thin condoms, ribbed ones, or extra lubricated ones, they are definitely out there.  Heck they even have flavored condoms if you want to have oral sex without having to worry about getting an STD! Getting condoms is free and just a click away.
