When is it safe to say some one doesnt have an std and its safe for sex?

Question

First Im wondering. Ok two people go test for all the Major Stds. They Come out Negative. Both people. Now Is it Safe to have sex? I always get Its good to have a condom? Well thats the point of the STD Check right? If you dont have any known Stds. You both tested and have not been with anyone. How can there still be risk of an std? Its Real simple both you have been tested. Then I hear well have one for oral sex also? First CAN YOU JUST CREATE AN STD BY ORAL SEX? IS that what they are saying? Ive heard people say its cleaner? Then Say its a health risk. TO be clear WHAT Kind oF HEALTH RISK? They say as if You can create an std by the act itself? So medical people need to clear that one up. Instead of leaving people in the dark. Is like Bodily Fluids On the Skin or with other Bodily fluids itself create some sort of Std? Ok It does depend on the act itself.
That simple Two people, Like say man and woman. Neither have an std? Whats Safe whats not?

Answer 1

If neither of you don't have any stds or contagious infections that can be passed on when you have sex, then you shouldn't have to worry about passing or getting an std. You should know you can have an std with out knowing it because some people don't have a lot of symptoms in the beginning. The point of the std check is to find out weather or not you have any stds but not all stds are tested for in the routine std testing, one major std that is often left out is herpes. Also condoms don't fully protect 100 percent against stds, you still have a chance of contracting herpes or hpv even if you use a condom. Also if you or your partner has cold sores (which are contagious and caused by oral herpes) then you or your partner could pass them from the mouth to the genitals during oral sex.

You can't just create an std so who ever said that is BSing you, some one has to have one in order to pass it on and as I said before you could have an std or contagious infection with out knowing it. Body fluids can carry an std but they don't create an std just by being left on the skin, they have to get into your partners body. Also some stds are passed when you have skin contact during sex.

If neither partner has an std or infection that could be passed during sex then you are safe to have sex. All you have to worry about is pregnancy.

Answer 2

OK, STD`s can be transmitted orally from Thrush to Genital Warts and all those nasties in-between,



OK so your saying if both people have a STD check and both come out of that test as clear of any STD`s so would having sex together be OK without a condom?



Well personally i would say use a Condom, firstly you wouldn't get the other persons results, some real sick people lie about this stuff, and second unless you sleep together pretty much within 30 secs on getting results then unless you are tied by the waist you don't know what the other is doing behind your back and third what if the test results were mixed up or a mistake happened then you are still at chance of having a STD or contracting an STD.



Always use a Condom, unless you are in a relationship and want a child its just not worth the risk.

Answer 3

If one person has a STD, they can infect another with the disease through any form of sexual contact - oral, vaginal, or anal. If you have not had sex, you don't have a STD and therefore can't infect anyone else. You can't "create" STDS, you have to be infected by someone that already has them. You should always use condoms, as it's impossible to tell who might have an STD and who doesn't.

Answer 4

Unless you have the most amazing doctor in the world with the most amazing & least bogged down lab ................you don't get negative test results.

You go get tested and the procedure is that IF you have something the clinic will contact you. There is no contacting you for negative test results. Unless you have a super awesome doctor that actually takes the time. Most facilities & labs are so bogged down that its easier for them to just trash negative results and only take responsibility for reporting the positive ones.

However using common sense one would guess that with this particular system in place there's allot of room for error. Samples get mixed up, lost, or not tested. Same thing can happen to test results. I mean you're relying on the people at your doctor's office, who ever transports samples between the clinic & lab, and lab technicians all to do their job. For them their job is the same as any other 9-5 grind. They get tired, they get bored, they stop caring on some days, people cut corners. We've all seen it at work and it happens every where. The point is that testing is better than not testing, but its not infallible.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases are transmitted through bodily fluids coming into contact with your body, and/or skin on skin contact. The way it works is that bacteria, protozoans, or viruses can enter your body through your mouth, anus, urinary tract, vagina, or tiny microscopic skin abrasions. (basically an hole or crack) Abrasions can be a results of skin irritation or say especially the friction on the skin of the penis during penetrative sex.

Having sex doesn't really create diseases its just a way to transmit an illness one already has. You can also give your partner the flu during sex. It's just that intimate contact provides the perfect opportunity for sickness to jump from one person to another.

There are also infections that women are especially prone to that aren't necessarily STDs / STIs, but they are frequently caused by sex. The four most common of these are Urinary Tract Infections, Bladder Infections, Bacterial Vaginosis, and Yeast Infections. The way a woman's body is made makes it very easy for bacteria to get shoved into her urinary system during sex. Also the vagina maintains a very specific environment of + and - bacteria to protect her body. The pH level or acidity of her vagina is very important to maintaining the balance of bacteria & naturally occurring yeast. Unfortunately sex is like the easiest way to upset vaginal pH and throw everything off. The best way to combat this is to guess what? ......WEAR a CONDOM.

♦Condoms are sanitary, lubricated, and smooth = very vagina friendly♦

Sex is risky because of the possible consequences. That's why its considered an adult activity. You have to be prepared to deal with the risks. Adults have to do their best risk management to protect themselves & the ones they love (or have sex with.) If both people are STD free, in a monogamous relationship, and want to have children ........that's best & safest situation in which to ditch condoms.

Any Sex Educator will tell you there is no such thing as safe sex. Just safeR sex. That's the best you can do. Is make it as safe as possible for you & your partner.

Answer 5

The best and safest way is to get yourself and your partner tested for std before engaging into any sexual activity. Before you become sexually active think about whether you are truly ready to handle the risks and responsibilities that come with being sexually active. Be honest with your medical care provider about your intentions to have sex so you can get the education you need about protecting yourself from STDs. Your medical care provoder is not there to judge, but to be helpful to you – and he/she can only be truly helpful when they know the truth.
