SEX POSITIONS AND HIV

There are certain sex positions that must be avoided in order to prevent HIV and other Sexually Transmitted Infections. 

When a person is infected with HIV or other STIs, the semen or the vaginal fluid gets contaminated. This therefore means these fluids must be avoided to prevent getting infected.

The condom is very effective when it comes to having a protective sexual intercourse. However, what most people do not know is that even if you have your condom on and you use certain sex positions it can lead to infection. A typical example is woman on top position or cowgirl position. In these two positions, the woman goes on top of the man. Even if the man is protected by the condom, due to the position of the woman her vaginal fluid in the course of the penetration or thrusting the vaginal fluid will drip on the condom to the scrotum and the skin around it. If the woman is infected and there is any opening around those areas or skin of the man, infection is highly possible. If you don't know sex positions by name then you may be at sea so just get it from this angle...even when you wear the condom, avoid any sex position that can cause the vaginal fluid from dripping and getting on the skin as this can lead to infection.
