If you are sexually active, have had multiple s*xual partners (including “oral interaction”) or if you just care about your health, then you need to get tested for STDs, pronto. Everyone should know by now that sleeping with multiple or high risk partners puts you at risk of catching an STD, but what you may not know is that scientists have recently discovered a strain of a commonly known (and quite downplayed) STD that is not yet curable. Doctors have yet to produce an antibiotic that can counteract this mutant strain of a highly prevalent STD, which is troubling to most because it is incredibly common.
Recently scientists discovered a strain of gonorrhea in North America that is not yet curable. The Center for Disease Control is quite concerned, not only because they cannot cure this illness, but also because it shows that the bacteria has become immune to antibiotics that treat gonorrhea. This clearly indicates that the disease is getting stronger. Gonorrhea in the past has been quite curable, which has been fortunate for us because it is the second most common STD in the world.
Cephalosporins is an antibiotic used to treat gonorrhea. In fact, it is the last line of defense against the infection. In one clinic in Toronto, researchers discovered that 6.7 percent of people who finished a treatment of cephalosporins were still infected by the disease a week later. The research shows that one in 15 people in the study are infected with the mutated form of the disease. Generally, if you are suffering from gonorrhea you will experience itchiness, infertility, abdominal pain, problems urinating and, if you’re a woman, infertility. Almost 700,000 Americans become infected with gonorrhea every year.
It is recommended that you go to the doctor to get a complete panel of tests for STDs, and not just get tested for HIV. Also, it is recommended that you be selective about sex partners, always use protection even with long-term partners and try to see a copy of recent test results before sleeping with anyone. This goes for kissing, oral and all the other ways that human beings love to spend their quality time. It’s no longer a game out here, so please be careful.
I remember the good old days of the 70′s.
Now I wouldn’t even thank of having sex with a woman I didn’t know. Even then I have to asked when was the last time they were cleared by their doctor.
Also I’ll ask was the last person you had sex with before or after the Doctor. Needless to say my questioning really has slowed thing down, however I can forego the gratification and live my life free of STD’s.
Until I have a monogynous relationship my Game plan works for me!

O.S.B., you both should go together and get tested, then return and be told the results. Never take anyone’s word for it or accept seeing results from a test they took alone.

Some of you ppl- this means “YOU” get sooo upset when y’all disagree with other posters that you reduce yourself to name calling. Was is necessary to call ‘Onesilverbac’ a SOB just because your immature azz disagrees with him? You and many others like you really need to grow up.

Sex has been used for recreation for too long. It must stop. There are many more ways to enjoy a companion. One of the ironies of life is that often the partner most enjoyable sexually is the least enjoyable in other interactions.

if you are trusting someone’s word that they are disease-free… shame on you. if you and your partner can’t go to the clinic together and go back TOGETHER for the results…. put some ice in your boxers/panties and wait!
be smart, folks!

Did anyone read the article on this Website where a football coach in Texas who transmitted the HIV virus to a woman knowing full well he was infected and yet she trust him but like so many who trust Men and Women alike to be clean free of these diseases risk there own well being and health for a few mintues of pleasure and yet end up spending the rest of their lives alone and in misery because they end up like lepers in bibical times where they are shunned and outcast not even mentioning that they have denied themselves of marriage and children so the best thing too do to make sure you are not a statistic is live your life according to bible standards that is not practice fornication if you are single and if you are married be faithful to your mate and you will prosper good health according to Acts 15:29 please read it

thanks for the infro it is time for everyone to be aware of just what going on std are no joke. take care & protect yourself. It not always about that good feeling it now how that feeling will leave your body infected with germs that can’t be cured. celibracy is the key to staying healthy unless you are sure that your partner is not sexing others. Have the conversations & follow your instincts be sure to protect yourself if you want to have sex. Sex today is stressful how can you truly enjoy the act when you have such issues to consider make good choices & live a healthy life free of STD’s

Practicing abstinence is not hard…just don’t have sex with the first Jameel or Lamar you meet. Matter of fact Tameeka or Lexus either. And that goes both ways and every which way. Personally, before I even consider having sex again, we will be going together to get tested for my safety and peace of mind and for his (he may need reassurance as well). I know I’m good and it’s going to stay that way. I saw a video on the computer of a young lady having sex with different young men taking turns while talking on the cell phone to her boyfriend. WHAT??? What if just one of them was infected that means all of them came out of that with a disease.

CDC,NIH,& The Department been lying to our community as long as they’ve been in existence.I work with married couples who’ve been married 25 yrs plus. whom husbands affected with Hiv & OrAIDS.All of them are accomplished people in their own right.The Antibiotics weakens the immune system.STD strains is mutating quicket than the power that be.uses this to decrease population.The oldest group member are in the mid to late 70s.Do your own research & Question The Health Department on their findings & how true it is.Tuskegee Experiments remember that!!
