Sex Life

SEX LIFE is your guide to sexual health and sexually transmitted diseases. Whether you have a busy sex life or a quiet one, a boyfriend, a girlfriend, or casual partners this page contains information about looking after yourself.

 Infections, Common Symptoms and What To Do
 Making Sex Safer
 Directory of Common Infections and Treatments
 Useful Contacts: Clinics, Advice and Support

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES (STDs), also known as Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), can be passed from one person to another during sex or other close body contact. Some cause no more than an itch, others can be painful. Many can be serious if left untreated.
People use lots of different names for STDs such as the clap and venereal disease (VD). Because STDs are rarely talked about, men are often confused about the risks to their health and can be nervous about getting help and information.
STDs are significant because some have only slight symptoms but can still cause damage if they are not treated. For people with HIV, infection with an STD may make it easier for HIV to be passed on. For others, having an STD can increase the risk of becoming HIV infected during sex with a person with HIV. Regardless of your HIV status, all STDs should be treated.
Anybody can get an STD by having sex, or in some cases by other intimate contact, with someone who is already infected. The symptoms of STDs can very from person to person, some people show no symptoms at all. Therefore, they can be passed on by someone who does not know that they have an infection. Many people have had an STD or will get one at some point. Some men regard the minor STDs as an "occupational hazard" because there is no way to protect oneself totally from every infection. By getting treatment when necessary you can look after yourself and prevent infections from becoming serious or causing damage. The more partners you have the greater the chance that you might pick up and pass on an infection. However, you only have to have sex with one infected person to become infected yourself. If you feel that you might be at risk, regular check-ups at a Sexual Health Clinic will ensure that any infection is detected and treated quickly. Also, by checking your genitals yourself and getting used to how they look and feel, you can check for any changes or symptoms which might suggest that you have an infection. This booklet will tell you how to check and what to look for.
If you are HIV positive, STDs can be more difficult to treat. The information in this guide still applies, but you may want more specialist advice. For more information contact one of the organisations listed at the back of this booklet , or discuss your situation with a doctor or health adviser.
COMMON SYMPTOMS TO LOOK OUT FOR
The symptoms of most infections can vary from person to person. The information below is a rough guide.

 Itching in or around your penis, testicles or anus
 Burning or itching when you pass water (piss) or faeces (shit)
 Needing to piss or shit often and then not being able to go or only going a little
 Spots, scabs or rashes on your penis or testicles or close to or inside your anus
 Discharges that look unusual. Puss from the end of your penis or from your anus
 Unusual lumps and bumps on your testicles (read on for a guide to checking your testicles)

If you notice ANYTHING out of the ordinary get it checked out.

IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE AN STD

Only a doctor will be able to tell you what the problem is and give you treatment. You can go to your local doctor (GP) or to a specialist Sexual Health Clinic. Such clinics are very used to dealing with the sexual health problems of gay and bisexual men.
Also known as GU or GUM Clinics, Sexual Health Clinics test for and treat STDs. The doctors and nurses are used to dealing with people who have STDs and are expert at treating most sexual problems. So going to a clinic can also be less embarrassing than seeing your GP.
Clinics ensure that your visit and reason for visiting are totally confidential. At a clinic you may give a false name and choose not to give your address or other personal information. This confidentiality can be useful, particularly if you have HIV or are getting tested for it. Some financial/mortgage companies request access to GPs’ notes, and deny loans to people who they feel are at high risk for HIV, particularly gay men. If you use a sexual health service no records of this will appear on your GP’s notes.

HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, has changed the way we think about sexual health. HIV infection is life-threatening although treatments are improving. You should consider ways to protect yourself and to prevent passing it on.
Hepatitis (Hep) B is another potentially serous infection. But unlike HIV there is a vaccination available free from most Sexual Health Clinics - just ask.
We can make our sex safer, but the bottom line is that the sex we have will never be risk free. We don’t always know when we have an STD and neither do our partners - so just asking won’t protect you. It is up to you, as an individual, to consider what level of risk you are prepared to take. Deciding what you will and won’t do before sex will mean that you are more likely to keep to your safer sex decisions.
Bear in mind that if your immune system is under strain (perhaps because you have HIV or because you have been unwell) minor STDs can be more difficult to treat.
Many find that sex can be better and staying safe can be made easier by talking before sex.
The most risky type of sex for passing on HIV is fucking without a condom. The best protection from HIV is to fuck with condoms or not to fuck. However, beyond this, how we protect ourselves is a personal choice. The following sections may help you make up your mind.
If you would like to talk to someone about sex and keeping it safe, contact a Sexual Health Clinic and ask to speak to a Health Adviser.

SAFER ANAL SEX (arse fucking)

Anal Sex carries high risks for passing on HIV as well as other infections. Condoms are known to provide the best protection although some people use Femidoms. Some men chose not to use any protection for fucking, this can lead to infection with STDs including HIV. People with HIV might be infected with other strains of HIV as well as with other STDs.
Condoms used for anal sex should be thicker than standard condoms. Durex Ultrastrong, Mates Superstrong, Safeguard Forte and H-T Specials are recommended. But any condom is better than none at all. If you are unsure how to use a condom follow the instructions on the packet. Use a water-based lubricant on the condoms and anus and during sex check the condom from time to time to ensure it is still protecting you.
Femidoms, although not designed for anal sex, are becoming popular with some men. If you use them or are interested in trying, bear in mind that they have not been tested to provide protection during anal sex. If you want to use Femidoms for anal sex make sure that the penis is going inside not alongside the inserted Femidom. Also bear in mind that the lubricant on Femidoms is oil-based and damages condoms.
If you fuck without any protection, seriously consider the possible risks. Even if you have had unprotected sex in the past, don’t assume that you are already infected. Using a condom or Femidom can protect you from future, possibly serious, infections.
SAFER ORAL SEX (arse licking and cock sucking)
Some STDs can be passed on by oral sex. However, it is rare for HIV to be passed on this way, therefore, in the UK oral sex is considered to be low risk for HIV. Men who are concerned about the risks can use condoms for sucking and dental dams for licking (see page 16).
SAFER SUCKING WITHOUT CONDOMS
Unprotected licking around the balls and penis shaft will be totally safe so long as there are no sores in the area, sucking the penis head increases the risk slightly. Getting cum in your mouth will, again, increase the risks a little more, swallowing cum may increase the risks still further. Choose your own level of sefety by deciding exactly what you will and won’d do during oral sex.
Not brushing your teeth just before or after oral sex will make it less likely that you have scratched your gums making it easier for infections to get in - use a mouthwash, breathfreshner or gum instead. Keeping your mouth in good health also helps protect you.

SEX WITH WOMEN

Lots of men, regardless of how they describe their sexuality, have sex with women. The risks of infecton with STDs during sex with women are similar to the risks of infection during sex between men. Any infections that either partner has may be transmitted through certain kinds of sex or in some cases by other close contact. Fucking, both anal and vaginal, is a high risk activity for passing STDs including HIV. The best protection against STDs when you fuck is to use condoms or Femidoms. Whether you have used such protection in the past or not, consider using it in the future.
Many STDs can be passed on by oral sex. It is up to you to decide what risks you will and will not take. HIV is present in the vaginal juices of women with HIV, although it is only exceptionally passed on during oral sex. Some people use protection for oral sex with women, but most feel that using protection is not necessary so long as they get any problems checked out and treated. As with oral sex with a man, don’t brush your teeth just before or just after, use gum or mouthwash instead.
The risks of HIV infection to the person licking increase when a woman is having her period (bleeding) becasue HIV is carried in the blood of an infected person. If your partner is having her period you may feel that the risks are too high for unprotected oral sex, or you could use a dental dam..

DENTAL DAMS

A dental dam is a square sheet of rubber which can be placed against the vagina or anus to form a barrieo between the person licking and the person being licked. You can make your own by cutting down the length of a (non-spermicidally lubricated or flavoured) condom and opening it out flat. Some recommend sticking the dam in place using a blob of warer-based lube, this may also increase sensitivity for the person being licked.
Whether you choose to use a dam/condom for oral sex or not, you can reduce the risk of infection from HIV and other STDs. Make oral sex safer by not brushing your teeth just before or after you have sex; this will make it less likely that you have scratched your gums making it easier for infections to get in. To freshen your breath before sex use a mouthwash, freshners or chewing gum. Keeping your mouth in good health will also help to protect you.

GENITAL WARTS
HPV (Human Papilloma Virus)
Affects: Anus, penis, testicles, occasionally the mouth
Symptoms:
 raised, whitish lumps, bumps or skin tags which sometimes spread quickly
 larger warts have the appearance of tiny cauliflowers
 warts may be itchy and uncomfortable
Description: Caused by a virus, warts can spread quickly causing discomfort. It can take anything from two weeks to eight months after infection before the warts appear. They are infectious and can be spread (i.e. from penis to anus) as well as from person to person. Warts may re-occur after treatment.
Treatment: Warts are usually removed using a chemical paint which is applied (up to two or three times a week) until the warts are removed.
Sex: Warts are easily passed on. Even during treatment warts are often still infectious so use condoms for sex. You can be re-infected during your treatment.

GONORRHOEA
The Clap or The Drip
Affects: Penis, anus, throat

Symptoms:
 pain or burning when you pee, particularly in the morning
 needing to pee and not being able to, or only being able to go a little
 itchy penis particularly around the opening
 occasionally achy and swollen testicles
 pain when cumming
 a sticky (and sometimes smelly) discharge from your penis or from your anus
 irritation in the anus particularly when shitting
 often there are no symptoms
Description: Caused by small bacteria which are highly infectious. Symptoms usually show about three days after infection. If throat is infected it can go unnoticed and be passed on by oral sex. As well as fucking and sucking, gonorrhoea can be passed on by touch (e.g. cock to finger to arse).
Treatment: Antibiotics. It is important to go for a follow-up test to make sure the infection has gone, if not more antibiotics will be prescribed.
Sex: You can be re-infected even while undergoing treatment. Assume you remain infectious until you’ve had follow-up tests. All partners should be encouraged to test also.

HEPATITIS (Viral)
Hepatitis A, B, and C (Hep A, B and C)

Symptoms:
 ‘flu’ like illness: aching, feeling ill and tired
 dark urine, pale, slimey shits
 yellowing of the skin and eyes
 aversion to strong flavours and fatty foods
 skin rashes
 sometimes there are no symptoms
Description: Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver. Some hepatitis is caused by viruses - hence viral hepatitis.
Hep. A tends not to be sexually transmitted although it can be passed on by rimming, scat and kissing.
Hep. B is highly infectious (much more so than HIV) and can be passed on during most kinds of sex. There is a higher than average incidence of Hep. B amongst gay and bisexual men and it can be serious. Some men remain infectious; they are called ‘carriers’. Carriers, even if they are completely well, can still pass the virus on. Many with Hep. B make a full recovery and are then immune to further infection. It can take anything from one to six months to make a person ill. Some men have the virus and get no symptoms at all; they are then immune to further infection. There is a free vaccination for Hep. B!
Hep. C is rarely passed on by sex as it isn’t quite infectious enough except in cases where a person’s immune system isn’t working properly such as people with HIV. However, Hep. C is readily passed on by sharing injecting equipment.
Treatment: Hepatitis should be treated and monitored by a doctor, although treatments are limited. It is important not to put the liver under strain while it is recovering so alcohol and other non prescription drugs (such as party drugs) should be avoided.
Vaccination for Hep. B is safe and effective and consists of a blood test (to check whether you need the vaccination ) and three injections over six months followed by another blood test (to check that the immunisation has worked). This is safe for people with HIV.
REMEMBER HEP.B IS THE ONLY STD FOR WHICH A VACCINE EXISTS:
USE IT! IT’S FREE!

HERPES
Cold Sores, Herpes Simplex Virus I & II (HSV I & II)

Affects: Mainly penis, testicles, thighs, anus, eyes, nose, lips,
although it may be passed to most parts of the body.
Symptoms:
 cold sores
 a tingling or burning on the skin
 stinging reddish, fluid filled bumps
 painful weeping blisters with whitish heads
 sometimes blisters join to form a raised weeping scab
 crusty, scabbed and flaking blisters
 pain pissing if penis is affected
 pain shitting if anus is affected
Description: A common and highly infectious virus. It usually occurs in the form of small, sometimes painful blisters. These occur on the area that came into contact with the infection. There are treatments to speed up healing and reduce the pain. The first attack of herpes occurs three to six days after infection and lasts about three weeks. It is common for herpes to re-occur, particularly if the person is ill or stressed. Subsequent attacks tend to be less severe and generally the length of time between attacks slowly increases. Herpes sores are most infectious as they form and whilst wet and weepy. They heal by forming dry flaky scabs, which eventually disappear.
Treatment: Symptoms can be relieved with treatment but the virus cannot be cured. Treatments are most effective if used immediately after the symptoms appear - seek medical advice quickly. Bathing in salty water can help ease the pain, and pissing whilst in the bath can make it less painful. In serious cases, or if a person gets frequent out breaks, a drug may be prescribed to help prevent the sores from forming. Discuss this with your doctor or at a Sexual Health Clinic.
Sex: Just before and whilst sores are present herpes can be passed on easily from one part of the body to another as well as from person to person (e.g. a cold sore can be passed to your own or someone else’s penis). If you do have sex ensure that neither of you touch or come into contact with a sore. It is important to wash your hands after touching a sore to prevent spreading it.

CHLAMYDIA, NSU (Non-Specific Urethritis)
& NGU (Non-Gonococcal Urethritis)

Affects: Penis, Throat and occasionally Testicles
Symptoms:
 pain or burning when you pee, particularly first thing in the morning
 needing to pee, then not being able to go, or only being able to go a little
 sticky discharge from the penis
 itchy penis around the opening or up inside
 pain when cumming
 occasionally, achy and swollen testicles (balls)
 one quarter of men infected show no symptoms
Description: A group of bacteria which can live inside your penis or throat. Some can be passed on by touch; if bacteria gets from one partner into the other partner’s penis or throat. Infections may also be passed on during oral sex (from dick to throat or throat to dick), anal and vaginal sex. It can take 7-21 days after contact before symptoms appear.
Treatment: Antibiotics. It is recommended that you go back to make sure the infection has cleared up, before having sex.
Sex: You may pass the infection on during your treatment. You can also be re-infected during treatment if your partner has the infection.

LICE & SCABIES
Pubic lice (crabs) and mites (scabies)

Affects:
Pubic Lice - mainly penis, scrotum and groin but any hairy part of the body (except head hair) may be infested.
Scabies - most parts of the body.
Symptoms:
 Severe itching, particularly around balls and penis
 Itching between fingers or toes
 Itching becomes worse when the person is warm (e.g. in bed !)
 Small rashes, blotches, or ‘tracks’ which look like a scratch made of little dots
 Flat pink/red itchy, blotchy rash over entire body
 Lice and eggs (nits) are sometimes visible clinging to the base of body hairs
Description: Lice are larger than scabies and can just be seen by the eye, scabies are too small to see. Both live by sucking blood: lice cling to hairs whilst scabies burrow under the skin leaving characteristic ‘tracks’. Generally passed on by close body contact, symptoms can appear soon after infection or take up to three weeks to show.
Treatment: Lotion, available from chemists, is put on over the entire body from the neck to toes, left on for the time instructed and then washed off. With severe infestation another application may be necessary a week later. With lice, all used bedding and clothing should be washed to avoid re-infection. Lice are sometimes passed on through non-intimate contact (with flatmates, for example) so you may have to speak to your friends and those you share your home with.
Treatment note: The symptoms of lice and scabies sometimes take up to 14 days to clear up after treatment. If you still feel itchy after using a treatment, wait for a few days to see if the symptoms go before applying more lotion. Over-using treatments can cause skin irritation such as excema and dermatitis.
Sex: You can be re-infected during your treatment, you may also be infectious to other people.

SYPHILIS The Pox or Venereal Disease (V.D.)

Affects:
(at first) penis, anus, lip, tongue or mouth
(later) most parts of the body
Description and Symptoms: Syphilis is reasonably rare, but it is highly infectious and can be serious if untreated. The infection is sometimes visible during the first stages, but when ‘in hiding’ is diagnosed by a routine blood test available from Sexual Health Clinics.
The symptoms of syphilis usually start with a painless, raised red pimple with a hard surround at the site of infection. The head then comes off the spot leaving an open hole, or ulcer, surrounded by hard skin. The ulcer leaks a clear watery fluid and is often accompanied by swollen glands in the groin and sometimes also in the armpits and neck. After four to six weeks the ulcer heals leaving a small scar. Then, at some point around three to twelve months later the infected person may have quite general symptoms which can be mistaken for other illness. A rash spreads over the body, the person feels ‘off colour’ and the glands in the neck, groin and armpits swell. Again these symptoms clear up within a few weeks, sometimes reoccurring. Anything from two to twenty years later the illness can reappear and cause damage to most parts of the body. Nowadays it is rare for syphilis to become this serious, because modern treatments are very effective.
Treatment: Antibiotics are used to cure syphilis. It is important that the infected person returns for blood tests after the treatment to ensure that the infection has gone.
Sex: Syphilis is infectious, and sex during treatment is not recommended. The only way to be sure that you do not have syphilis is to have a blood test, available from Sexual Health Clinics.
