Key Elements of Sexual Health You Must Know

If you are not careful about your sex life, then things might turn out pretty bad for you. You can catch a sexually transmitted disease (STD), have trouble building intimacy with your partner, become deprived of physical and mental satisfaction, face unwanted pregnancy etc. A lack of awareness about sexual health not only affects you but your partner and the people around you as well. So, it's important to become mindful of your sexual health.

So, what is sexual health? According to World Health Organization, “Sexual health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality.” It means you have to approach sexuality with respect and positivity. Likewise, be positive and respectful towards your partner and avoid any kind of nonconsensual violence.

So how do we practice healthy sex? You can do so by considering and understanding various things about sexual health. These elements of sexual health are as follows:

Communication: The role of communication in a healthy sexual relationship cannot be stressed enough. Healthy communication is basic yet one of the most important aspects of one’s sexual health. Without proper communication, it's impossible for sexual partners to express themselves to each other. Good communication gives you the chance to express your feelings and needs. It's about letting each other know what you want and what you don't want. It's about asking the right questions and sorting things out together.

Ask your partner what he/she wants sexually. Know about their likes and dislikes. Let them know what you prefer too. Build a wonderful relationship by communicating with each other openly.

Intimacy: Being intimate with your partner means you understand and care for each other. So you should try to build intimacy with your sexual partner. It is guaranteed to make everything better including sex. While you can have sex without being emotionally close to each other, but it's far healthier to do it with a partner you are already intimate with.

Awareness about sexually transmitted diseases/Practicing safe sex: The last thing you want is to be diagnosed with STD. At some point in our lives we all get to do a little experiment and exploration. Exploring your sexuality and meeting new people can be pretty exciting and can be quite healthy too. But one needs to be careful when reaching out for the unknown. When meeting new people ask them if they have any health issues. Ask for medical reports if necessary. It might seem a little rude, but you will be thankful in the long run. Remember your safety always comes first. Use protection. Schedule yourself for a medical check-up on a regular basis. You should ask your partner to do the same.

Using contraception: You need to use the proper birth control method if you want to avoid unwanted pregnancy. Many people confuse contraception with safe sex. Contraception is used to prevent sperm from fertilizing the egg while safe sex is the method of preventing sexual transmitted diseases. Be sure to use a contraception method best suited for you such as:

  • Birth Control Implant (99% effective)
  • Birth Control Pill (91% effective)
  • Cervical Cap (71 to 81% effective)
  • Male Condom (82% effective)
  • Female Condom (79% effective)
  • Vasectomy (99% effective)

Avoid any type of exploitation: Never let the act of love making turn into any form of exploitation, whether it's you or your partner who is being exploited or abused. If you are the one being exploited then maybe it's time to meet someone else. If it's the opposite, it's time to become a better human. Nothing good can come from exploitation. Remember the keys to happiness are mutual love and respect.

Sex is a wonderful thing. It's a way to express your love and experience the greatest pleasure in the world. But if you are not careful about your sexual health, you will end up hurting yourself and your partner. Always take the necessary steps to keep your sexual relationship healthy and encourage your partner to do the same.
