In daily life, condom contraception is a common contraceptive method, and many couples are also accustomed to using this way to contraception, using condom contraception at ordinary times**, which can not only effectively achieve the purpose of contraception, but also effectively prevent cross-infection.
For condoms, many people have this question, is it really safe to use it?
Ancient "** was usually made from fish intestines, leather, or animal bladders. These materials obviously don't have the elasticity and comfort of modern ***, but they do have a certain contraceptive effect.
In addition to this, ancient people would also use some natural materials for contraception, such as honey, oil, clay, and animal feces. These substances are thought to block sperm from entering the uterus. However, these materials do not have the reliability that modern *** has, so the failure rate is high.
In addition to these natural materials, there are some more dangerous methods that have been tried. For example, some ancient texts mention the use of toxic substances such as lead, mercury, and arsenic for contraception. These substances are not only ineffective against contraception, but can also seriously harm health.
In addition, there were some more extreme contraceptive methods in ancient times, such as surgical sterilization. In some cultures, women are subjected to a procedure called "resection" to prevent them from having children. This method is not only painful, but also extremely risky, causing great harm to women's physical and mental health.
1.Allergic reactions: Some people may have an allergic reaction to latex or rubber ingredients, and may experience symptoms such as itching, redness and swelling after using a condom. If you experience allergy symptoms after using a condom, stop using it immediately and consult a doctor.
2.Reduced sensitivity: Using condoms may reduce sensitivity, making sex less pleasant or more difficult to orgasm. Especially for some men, condom use may cause loss of libido or difficulty getting an erection.
Myth 1: Condoms should only be used during sex.
Don't know: Condoms can be used not only for contraception and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases during sex, but also for other intimate contacts, where they can also protect against the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
Myth 2: Condoms do not cause allergic reactions.
Correct understanding: Some people may be allergic to ingredients such as latex or lubricants in condoms, resulting in symptoms such as itching, redness and swelling. If you experience an allergic reaction after using a condom, you should stop using it immediately and consult your doctor.
Myth 3: Condoms can completely protect against sexually transmitted diseases.
Don't know: While condoms can reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, they can't eliminate the risk entirely. This is because some pathogens can be transmitted through contact, or through broken mucous membranes during sex. Therefore, while using condoms, we should also pay attention to hygiene and avoid sharing personal items such as toothbrushes, razors, etc. with infected people.
Myth 4: Only men need to use condoms.
Perspective: Both men and women can use condoms to protect themselves and each other from sexually transmitted diseases. Women can ask for condoms during sex, or prepare condoms ahead of time and place them next to the bed.
