It is true that summer is the period most at risk for Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs). Why does this happen? Because many people, especially young people, travel around and go in search of casual adventures.
Remember that these infections, even when they are asymptomatic or not too visible, if neglected can lead to sexual disorders and fertility problems in both sexes, especially among women. Women often realize that they have been infected only when they are trying to have a baby. A condom should always be used for all sexual relations – it is the only effective protection against STDs. If you also want to protect yourself from an unwanted pregnancy, it is better if you use a reliable form of contraception as well, based on the advice of your gynecologist.
