There are clinics for everything.
You have your free clinic, your fertility clinic, and your doggie clinic.
There's also another type of clinic.
This clinic is for the sexually active.
It is called an STD testing clinic and anyone who has ever had a hot day or night of sensuous passion should visit one.
After the passion subsides there are practical matters to deal with.
First, what is your partner's sexual history like? Their entire sexual history.
We've all heard the saying that goes: when you sleep with someone, you've also slept with everyone that they have slept with.
It may sound a bit dramatic, but technically it's absolutely true.
This is where the STD clinic comes in.
An STD test clinic can help you get responsible by administering tests for potential diseases that you may have caught.
After all, there are over twenty five different diseases that qualify as STDs.
What makes you so lucky that you think you may have dodged this bullet.
If you're that lucky: play the lottery! In this article, we shall take a look at just one of the potential problems that may arise by engaging in sexual relations with another person: HPV.
Once you cross the line from masturbation to genuine sex, a host of problems may spring up like the head of an angry snake.
HPV (or genital warts) can cause severe health problems in both men and women alike.
Every time you engage in unsafe sex you are inviting dangerous diseases into your life.
Is it worth it for a few moments of bliss, when you can achieve the same exact bliss safely through the use of condoms and other protection? We think not.
Genital Warts The name alone should scare the heck out of you.
It's bad enough when you see a picture of a haggard old witch with warts on her nose-imagine having them where the sun don't shine? Ewww.
Genital warts arise because of a viral infection called the human papilloma virus (or HPV).
This STD can occur on the penis, on the lips of the vagina, inside the vagina, inside the cervix, inside and around the anus...
and inside the throat.
Not a pretty thought, and yet it is the most common STD in America with over twenty million Americans already infected with this insidious disease.
According to the world's foremost authority, the Department of Health and Human Services, over five and a half million Americans will become infected this year alone.
An STD clinic can test for these little buggers.
How do you know if you have them? Well, genital warts are small fleshy appendages of the skin that up-close look like little cauliflowers buds (just another reason to hate cauliflower).
Breakouts are different for men and women.
In men, the breakouts occur less frequently and when they do pop up they will be concentrated primarily around the head of the penis and along the shaft.
In women, it is much worse because the warts can and do occur inside the body.
Both men and women should head to an STD clinic at the first sign of these unsightly bumps.
Genital warts can cause cervical cancer in women, and in some states a controversial vaccination for girls has been instituted.
The best bet is to visit a certified STD clinic and receive treatment there.
Genital warts can be removed via laser and may be treated with gels and ointments.
Only a doctor will know the best course of treatment for you individually.
Remember that condoms go a long way in protecting against STDs such as genital warts.
