Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Ngelixa unokuba unqabile malunga nokwenza isondo elikhuselekileyo kunye neqabane ngalinye elitsha, ayinguye wonke umntu oqeqeshekileyo xa kufikwa ekuthinteleni izifo ezosulela ngesondo. Ngokucacileyo: Ngaphezulu kwezigidi ezingama-400 zabantu abosulelwe yintsholongwane ye-herpes simplex yohlobo lwe-2-intsholongwane ebangela i-herpes yesini-kwihlabathi liphela ngo-2012, ngokweenkcukacha ezipapashwe kwiphephancwadi. KWINDAWO ENYE.

Ngaphezu koko, ababhali bophando baxela ukuba bamalunga nezigidi ezili-19 abantu abasandula ukosulelwa yintsholongwane minyaka le. Kwaye yile herpes-iZiko loLawulo lweZifo eliqikelela ukuba ngaphezulu kwesigidi se-110 samadoda nabasetyhini e-US banoluhlobo lwe-STD, kwaye phantse izigidi ezingama-20 zosulelo ezenzeka rhoqo ngonyaka. (Kubandakanywa ezi zi-STD zokulala Usengozini.)

Ke uqinisekisa njani ukuba uyatyibilika phakathi kwamashiti nomntu ococekileyo? UPatrick Wanis, Ph.D., ingcali kwezonxibelelwano kunye nobudlelwane kwezonyango unikezela ngengcebiso malunga nendlela yokuzisa lo mbandela ubuthathaka kunye neqabane elitsha ngaphandle kokwenza isivumelwano esikhulu. (Ungalibali ngezi ezinye iiNgcoko ezisi-7 ekufuneka ubenazo kuBomi obusempilweni beSex.)

Musa Ukutsiba uMpu

Kukho ixesha elifanelekileyo kunye nendawo yokuxubusha lo mbandela, kwaye isidlo sakho sokuqala asiyiyo. Umhla wokuqala kukwazisa ukuba ngaba ikhona na ikhemistri phakathi kwakho nomnye umntu, utshilo uWanis. Ukuba uyaqonda ukuba akunakubakho ubudlelwane obunokuthi buqhubele phambili, akukho sizathu sakuzama. Endaweni yokugxila kwinani lemihla, jolisa kwiimvakalelo zakho. "Ngokukhawuleza nje ukuba uzive sele ufikelele kwinqanaba apho ufuna khona ukuba semzimbeni, ngoku iba luxanduva lwakho ukuyinyusa," utshilo uWanis.

Khetha Indawo yakho Ngobulumko

“Indawo okuyo ichaphazela iimvakalelo zakho kwaye iya kuba nefuthe kwindlela iqabane lakho elityhila ngayo,” utshilo uWanis. Ukuba incoko iyenzeka ngelixa usitya, umhla wakho unokuziva ubanjelwe yimibuzo yakho kuba ehleli phantsi, okanye engonwabanga kuba ezinye izidlo zinokuva, uyachaza.

Endaweni yoko, cwangcisa ukubuza imibuzo enzima kwindawo evulekileyo, engathathi hlangothi-efana nokuhamba, okanye ngelixa ubamba ikofu kwaye ujinga epakini. Ukuba uhamba, okanye uhamba ngokukhululekileyo, kuncinci ukusongela omnye umntu, utshilo u-Wanis. (Zama enye yezi: 40 Imihla yokuSimahla yeZimvo Niya kubathanda bobabini!)

Nantoni na oyenzayo, musa ukulinda de ube sele ulele, malunga nokuxhuma. (Uyazi, kuba isenokungafiki kubushushu bomzuzu.)

Khokela ngomzekelo

Esikhundleni sokukhaba incoko embuza ngembali yakhe yesondo, kungcono ukuba uchaze imeko yakho ye-STD kuqala. "Ukuba unyanisekile malunga nexesha lakho elidlulileyo, oku kubonisa ukuba sesichengeni-kwaye ukuba usemngciphekweni, kunokwenzeka ukuba nabo," utshilo uWanis.

Zama oku: "Ndisandula kuvavanywa ii-STD kwaye ndifuna nje ukukwazisa ukuba iziphumo zam zibuye zacaca." (Ingaba iGyno yakho ikunika iiMvavanyo eziLungileyo zeMpilo yezeSondo?) Qwalasela indlela asabela ngayo kwingxelo yakho, kwaye ukuba akanikezeli nto, hambisa incoko kunye nelula, "Ngaba uye wavavanywa kutshanje?"

Incoko iyatshintsha, nangona kunjalo, ukuba nguwe ovumayo ukuba une-STD. Kodwa kuya kufuneka-ibe nguwe onoxanduva kwaye uqiniseke ukuba awosuleli abantu, u-Wanis uyachaza.

Ucebisa ukuba ubeke yonke imfuno yolwazi ngaphandle ukuze uphelise ukubhideka. Oko kuthetha ukuba uchaze ukuba luhlobo luni lwe-STD oluthweleyo, nokuba ngaba i-STD yakho iyanyangeka, kwaye uchithe umngcipheko weqabane lakho lokufumana isivumelwano (nangona ngekhondom).

Umzekelo: I-Chlamydia, i-gonorrhea, kunye ne-trichomoniasis ikakhulu zihanjiswa ngokudibana nolwelo olunentsholongwane (cinga: ukhuseleko kwilungu lobufazi, amadlozi). Ke ukuba ikhondom isetyenziswe ngokuchanekileyo, inciphisa umngcipheko wokusasazeka kwe-STD. Zikhona ke ii-STD ezifana negcushuwa, i-HPV (yintoni ebangela iintsumpa zangasese), kunye ne-herpes yangasese ezisasazwa ngokudibana nolusu olosulelekileyo-ke ikhondom ayisoloko iqinisekisa ukhuseleko.

Nokuba omnye wenu wosulelekile okanye hayi, i-STD convo ayonto imnandi ukuba nayo, kodwa ukuthetha ngayo ngaphambili kunokunisindisa nobabini kwaye ningathembeki ezantsi emgceni-singasathethi ke ngoogqirha abaninzi.
