disease transmission, coinfections and sexual habits
Just a quick ponder... I just got back from the Dr., with the 3rd UTI in 6 weeks.......I have never had this before. He questioned me about sexual positions, frequency, and hygiene... of course I said DOC, look at me, sex is not an option...
but it did get me thinking... I know in HIV, women are more susceptible to disease transmission because the virus is "deposited" with bodily fluids, and contact is longer...
Is there a higher rate of HCV transmission to women than to men?
Does douching help? Positions? I know we are looking at a 2-3% transmission rate, but thats 2 or 3 people out of every hundred...
Inquiring minds want to know...

says......kegel exercises strengthen and tone the muscles that are involved in ejaculation, and so men who Kegel can, if they do some additional work with themselves, gain greater control over the timing of their ejaculations.

You know chev, you are probably right... I mean how many times do we do it when we really don't feel like it, and then wow, that was fun, why don't we do it more often??? I will try and force myself before I suffer magental atrophy..
rocker, Dr. said soaps and bubble baths are bad? Any natural organic cleansers that are as effective as soap, but that would increase susceptibility... I guess vinegar is pretty natural..
