6. Sex during drunkenness can release sexual depression, but it also impairs sexuality, of course, as well as overall judgment. Dr. Tourek said this would seriously reduce the likelihood of having safe sex. & "I estimate that if one or both parties are drunk, the risk of unintended consequences of sexual intercourse is twice that of the former," he said.

In addition to having sex with a person who is not conscious or who has no risky behavior, it can also lead to condom abuse or unprotected sex. Although you are the only person who can determine the drinking limit, the National Institutes of Health defines low-risk drinking as no more than four drinks a day for men and three drinks for women.

h3>7. Trust your partner, how much do you know about your partner, really? Of course, they may tell you that they are having family planning, that Don has no STDs, or that they will quit in time, but are they telling the truth? & "Trust is the problem here," Dr. Tourek said. For example, if your partner relies on exit methods, does he know what he is doing or when he should do it? How do you know that your partner is practicing birth control correctly? When it comes to sexually transmitted infections, how do you know that your partner has actually been tested? If trust is not established, you should be cautious, not risky. Or wait until you really know them before choosing intimate contact.
