5 reasons you should not have unprotected $ex

The weekend is here again, people want to flex and have fun. It’s a good idea but there are precautions especially when it comes to having intimacy with your partner. Protection is necessary and should not be sidelined. Here are 5 reasons you should not have unprotected sex:

Risk of STIs: Unprotected sex increases the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like HIV, gonorrhea, and chlamydia.

Unplanned Pregnancy: Without protection, there is a high risk of unintended pregnancy, leading to potential emotional, financial, and lifestyle challenges.

Lack of Communication: Failure to discuss condom use or sexual health with partners can result in unsafe practices and misunderstandings, increasing the risk of unprotected sex.

Health Consequences: Unprotected sex can lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs) due to bacteria entering the urethra during intercourse.

Limited Protection: Withdrawal methods or assumptions about partners’ sexual health status are unreliable and may not provide adequate protection against STIs or pregnancy.
