Safe Sex Information and Advice

[QUOTE=TwoNutts;3851961]I had unprotected sex with a regular. I haven't had sex with anyone else in several months. I got tested on Tuesday, results came back negative for 10 different STDs. But I'm still a little sore after I piss and there is a white substance that I can force out of my dick in the morning. Any ideas gents.[/QUOTE]It's probably gonorrhea. Testing negative doesn't prove you don't have it because you can get false-negative test results. It might take days or even months for symptoms to appear, and in many people gonorrhea has no symptoms, but you can transmit it despite having no symptoms. You should have yourself re-tested. There are news reports about a hard-to-treat strain of gonorrhea that is resistant to currently available antibiotics. Washing your penis while urinating in a shower immediately after exposure (I. E, sex) reduces your risk by pissing and washing away the bacterium.

[QUOTE]How Do I Know If I Have Gonorrhea?
. . . .

Gonorrhea symptoms normally show up between 1 and 10 days after you get the infection. Some people dont see any symptoms until after they've had the infection for months. Others -- usually women -- may never have symptoms at all.[/QUOTE]See also the Center for Disease Control web site: [URL]https://www.cdc.gov/std/gonorrhea/stdfact-gonorrhea.htm[/URL].

I was with my regular about a week back. I did not have sex, but was dry humping (both naked). My uncircumcised penis was having thrush for the past 3-4 days and since yesterday the head was tingling. Today, the head is burning and also my buttock hole too. Is this could be balanitis or any other STD? Appreciate all inputs and recommendation. Thanks.

Here is an article about it:

[QUOTE=ParamAhmad;4002833]Either the Pasante Unique condom with the skirt at the base of the penis or the FC2 female condom with the wide ring that stays on the outside of the woman's body provide much better protection from sexually transmitted diseases / infections (STDs / STIs) than standard male condoms that leave much of the base of the penis exposed, because some STDs / STIs (such as syphilis, HPV / condyloma / genital warts, and herpes) pass through skin rather than through the urethra.[/QUOTE]Here is a link to the Unique Plus condom with skirted bottom.

[URL]https://luckybloke.com/products/buy-unique-plus-brand-new-condoms-best-reviews[/URL]

The material used to make the Unique condoms is similar to a plastic bag in the produce section of a grocery store. It isn't very stretchy, so sizing is important. They are a bit wider than most condoms, so they may fit loosely on narrow penises, leaving the material wrinkly. Although they are very thin, they still remove the sensation of friction. Some people say they feel like wearing nothing, but I disagree. The female condom allows the man to feel friction, giving a much improved sensation. Adding extra lube to the penis helps the FC2 to provide a better experience for the man.

[/QUOTE]I wonder if products that prevent UTIs would also reduce the risk of STDs.

[URL]https://www.healthline.com/health/d-mannose-for-uti[/URL]

"E. Coli bacteria cause 90 percent of UTIs. Once these bacteria enter the urinary tract, they latch on to cells, grow, and cause infection. Researchers think that D-mannose works for a UTI by preventing these bacteria from latching on".

"Alcohol extracts of juniper show activity against 57 strains of 24 bacterial species. Juniper is also active against SARS coronavirus, and herpes simplex 1. Use the berries for urinary tract infections".

"Bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics rather easily. Plant antibacterials, because they contain hundreds to thousands of compounds, do not lead to resistance in bacteria. Cryptolepis: a broad spectrum, systemic antibacterial, effective for MRSA, C-diff, CRE, and gonorrhea".

I stopped by Planned Parenthood and had not so great experience. I did gonorrhea, chlamydia and trichomoniasis testing and clinician gave me a 1 gram z-pack. For all these it cost me 265. That's the cost of an hour long GFE session in a K-agency. I think the clinician fee of 125 is the most worthless piece. She talked for less than 2 min and didn't even pull down my pant and check my junk and just gave me a z-pack and send me on my way.

So I had a GFE session with a Japanese and Korean mix girl. We did use condom, but there were BBBJ, DFK and bit of DATY. Afterwards I started to feel "discomfort" around penile area. It's not burning, not rush or bump or wart, no discharge all these typical STD symptoms. It's like a muscle in pelvic floor that stretch from penis to anus that's sore. I guess sore is the best feeling to describe it. I don't know if this just some psychological thing or is it really STD, but it won't go away after 2 weeks. So, I decided to get it tested.

Searched around this forum, seems for STD testing, there are couple options: one is that place an online order and wait for them mail you a test kit, and you do test at home and send it back. The other is have an online chat, a teledoc send prescription to a local lab and you go to local lab and get urine and / or blood sample. The other option is planned parenthood and after thinking it over, I decided to go with PP.

When I get there, the door is locked and there is intercom at door. You must have an appointment to get in. There are quite few people in waiting room. It's kind of weird to see what type of people will go into PP.

The receptionist asked about my insurance and income stuff. Even I have insurance, I told them I don't. Actually I just got laid off and was on UI, but with all the people in waiting room I feel nervous and just told her I will pay myself with cash. Maybe that's the mistake and the visit cost me that much. Did you guys just lie on the form and PP will not actually do a full financial investigation? From people wrote on this forum, it seems like a free clinic. But for me, I think 265 is too expensive for the minimum level of medical attention and treatment. I am even thinking of laying off this hobby for a while or only go full covered from start to finish.

Anyone has any better approach to get STD testing?

Quick question though, am I the only married guy still boning his wife? Seems like everyone is getting BBBJs all the time and I'm rather too careful or too scared to get one out of fear of my wife catching something.

How do you guys do it?

Also why does no one use erotic monkey?

Thank you for that. That does make me feel better for taking the precations I take. You just never know anymore, and I like to be as careful as possible. Just seemed like maybe I was missing out on some untapped clean reservoir or something. LOL.

While you can contract std's from unprotected oral, it's very unlikely according to cdc and other sites seem to echo this. I'm not suggesting you do this, I'm just stating how I do it. I have had CFS offered to me on more than a few occasions and always turn that down as any std she might have is just about guaranteed to transfer that way. In my 9+ years I've never brought any presents home.

Erotic Monkey is a shit site. They steel reviews from other sites. How do I know? I wrote over 50 reviews on TER and some 6 or 7 of them have been posted on them just as though I wrote them there and some have been edited if I said something like " I told her I'd leave her a review on TER", well that sentence was certainly deleted. Having said that, them is a resource and in this post fosta / sesta times, I'll take any resource I can get. You can write a review there and get 1 week unlimited access.

Just my $. 02 worth, Ace.

I am not sure where to post this, so I am posting this question (s) here. I am a newbie to this hobby so please don't be to hard on my ignorance. In your dreams, are there any concerns about STD? How do you dream of protection besides a condom (which they say is no guarantee of not contracting STD's). Are there any other safe measures to use when dreaming of FS?

Can you veteran dreamers give us newbies some input on how you handle protection from STD's?

It's saving many lives and that's all that matters.

Anyone has any better approach to get STD testing?[/QUOTE]Your county health department has free testing for the big 3 that you had tested at Planned Parenthood. You can get more complete testing by using STD [URL]check.com[/URL].

The ten test panel is about $200. HSV1,2 ; HIV, Hep A, B, C and more.
