How to protect yourself (and your partner) during sexual intercourses ?

Sexual desires are nothing to be ashamed of : indeed, they are a typical caracteristic of human being, although all humans don’t necessarily have some. Entering the teenage years of your life, you’ll probably have to face a penis. Or a vagina. Or an anus. Or whatever. Who knows?

Anyway, before letting yourself be carried along by the pleasures of sex, there are a few things you need to know. We’ll first introduce you the ways to protect yourself against the STIs regardless of your sex, gender identity and sexual orientation then how to avoid teen pregnancy.

What are the ways to protect myself against the STIs ?

– For cunnilingus/anulingus :

You shall use a dental dam. It’s a little latex rectangle you place on the whether the vulva or the anus. You must use a different one for each partner, and each intercourse.

Cost : around 8€ for 3

Where can you find them ? in pharmacies.

Bonus: you can even make some yourself with condoms, check the DIY 😉

– For fellatios (blow jobs) :

Definitely an external condom (male condom). You might have tiny cuts in your mouth that could spread the bacteries.

Cost : around 10€ a box.

Where can you find them ? in pharmacies, supermarkets, distributors and at the school’s nurse office.

Bonus : There are different tastes.

– For penetrations :

Cost : around 10€ a box

Where can you find them ? in pharmacies, supermarkets, distributors and at the school’s nurse office.

No matter the orifice, you can use finger cots, latex gloves or any equivalent for allergic people.

Cost : it depends on the quantity

Where you can find them ? Probably weldom. But still, opt for pharmacies. They also sell some on the web, you should check it out, they’re pretty cheap compared to STIs.

Tip : don’t hesitate to lubricate with water-based lubes, compatibles with the latex contained in the previous protections, to avoid irritations which favor the transmission of the different STIs.
