If you are craving closeness with your significant other and looking to spice up things in the bedroom, go ahead and eroticise the romantic day. However, make sure to take precautions and use contraception for protection and safety. Listed below are some tips to help safeguard your sexual and reproductive health this Hallmark holiday.
Talk Openly about Safe Sex
You should be upfront with your partner if you’re planning to deepen intimacy on this romantic day. Have an open conversation regarding your sexually transmitted infection (STI) status, fantasies, desires, sexual boundaries, etc. Also, discuss Valentine’s Day safety tips and the various contraception options available such as (condoms, birth control pills, Intrauterine device or system (IUD/IUS), contraceptive injection, vaginal ring, and contraceptive patch) to select a method that is acceptable to both of you. It is important to be on the same page to embark on a healthy sexual relationship.
Use a Condom
Condoms ensure safe sex by offering double protection. It is the best kind of barrier method that not only thwarts the odds of conception but also prevents the spread of STIs like HPV, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, and syphilis through any genital contact. What’s more, the use of condom reportedly protects against the dreaded HIV. This type of contraception is great if you don’t know your partner too well or are new to the relationship. There are a variety of condoms out there, so choose the one that you are comfortable with. Also, remember that condoms are not indestructible so double-check to certify the expiry date hasn’t run out.
