Are you ready for sex?

Here are some things you should consider before sex:

Although some think they are old enough, it may not be the best time for sex. There are no rules when exactly should happen to you when you should have sex for the first time. Readiness for it occurs at different times in each person. Fail to do so may affect your future sex life and cause you lack of sex drive.

It is your decision 

You can always choose when you want to have sex and with whom. Just because you've done it before, with one person does not mean that you have to do it again. Is this just to satisfy your partner and you even need to find something to stimulate yourself to boost testosterone level?

When and with whom to do it is one of the important decisions in your life. You're the only one who can decide. Whether you lose your virginity or will have sex again, remember the following tips:

Talk about sex

Better embarrassed to talk about sex than embarrassing sex before you are ready. There are a lot of things you should consider.

• Are you both ready for sex?

• Will you make sex for the right reasons, not because you are under pressure?

Sex is not the only aspect of the relationship, and there are other ways to enjoy each other. Discuss what you want and what you want to do. You can do other things and they like - as conversations, meeting with friends and family, concert, theater, sports, walks and listening to music.

10 questions to yourself

You should be confident about how we will react if it comes to sex and where will actually proceed. Ask yourself when you feel comfortable. This exact time is it right spot, the right person? Do you really believe that man and mutual have your feelings?

• Do you feel better?

• Do you love your partner?

• Does he loves you too?

• Did you talk about using condoms and how the conversation went?

• Are you prepared contraceptives?

• Can you say "no" at any time if you change your mind both be OK with that?

If you answer "yes" to all questions, then maybe the time is right. But if you answer "yes" to these questions, it does not hurry:

• Do you feel under pressure from a partner or friends?

• Why do you want to do sex to impress their friends or because you really want?

• Are you afraid to lose a close working relationship if you do not have sex with him?

Having a relationship does not necessarily mean having sex. Even if you've done it once or twice to be sure whether you really want to proceed.

Condom vs Intrauterine device

Contraception is extremely important for the health of women because unwanted pregnancy and abortion can endanger women’s health both physically and emotionally. In addition, in order to enjoy a sexual intercourse, you should be protected from possible sexually transmitted infections especially when you practice sex with persons that you don’t know much.

There are several types of contraceptives and people often wonder which one is the best and most effective? In this article we will pay attention to the most popular forms of contraception – condoms and intrauterine devices. Although they don’t belong to a similar group of contraceptives there are some similarities between them.

Condoms and intrauterine devices are very different types of contraceptives. For example a condom is used only once and it is used by the male partner. Modern condoms are made of polyurethane or latex and they act in a mechanical way – they don’t allow sperms to enter the uterus and the eggs.

When we talk about intrauterine devices we should mention that there are two types of them – intrauterine device with copper wire and uterine system with a hormone depot. Both types are placed in the uterus cavity and they can be effective for around 5 years. The one with the copper wire includes a plastic device with copper wire around it. This device prevents sperm’s movement and makes the womb unsuitable for fertilization. The uterine system includes a plastic insert in a form of a cylinder with hormones in it. This system works in the same way like the one with a copper wire plus it releases hormones that prevent pregnancy.

A condom is recommended for women regardless of their age and the age of their partner. They are suitable for women that practice sex often but also for women who have sexual intercourses occasionally. Intrauterine devices and systems are recommended for women that already gave at least one birth.

When it comes to successful protection, intrauterine devices are a little bit better because they work in almost 99% of the cases. However the percentage of condoms as successful contraceptives is also very high (it is successful in 97% of the cases).

The condom is easy to use and it can be used only once. The intrauterine devices must be carried al the time but in addition it is beneficial for the menstrual period.

As far as side effects are concerned, condoms can cause various allergic reactions and all you have to do is change the type of condom that you use, while intrauterine devices can cause more problems in the form of excessive bleeding during menstrual cycles (especially at the beginning) and in rare cases women say that they experience frequent headaches, acne etc.

Besides protection from unwanted pregnancy condoms can prevent the body from sexually transmitted diseases and even from AIDS. Intrauterine devices don’t have that advantage.

Condoms can be used without consulting your doctor while intrauterine devices require a visit to the gynecologist.

No matter what type of contraception you choose, make sure that you follow the instructions and consult with your doctor if you notice any unusual effects.
