VIVA – The human body system is a complex mechanism. With so many organs, muscles, and nerves functioning as if they have a life of their own, assessing whether everything is going well or not can be tedious for laymen like us. This is especially true for those who are sexually active.

Our bodies respond to everything we enjoy, including food, drink, conversation, or even sexual activity. Therefore, sometimes, the impact of such activities can affect our health, although it may not always be obvious.

Reporting from mensxp, here are some signs related to sexual health that may be easy to ignore, but should always be watched out for.

It is important to check the area around the scrotum for any growth or lump formation around the area.

Because the area around the genitals is sensitive, bumps sometimes appear due to ingrown hairs, but they can also be a sign of genital warts or infection.

2. Disposal

When you notice unusual discharge from your penis or rectum, it is a sign that something is wrong with your sexual health.

Green or yellow vaginal discharge can indicate gonorrhea, while white vaginal discharge can mean trichomoniasis, and if the vaginal discharge is white but odorless and thick, this could mean you have a fungal infection.

3. Burning Sensation When Urinating

Another clue that shows that you may be experiencing sexual health problems is when you feel a burning sensation when urinating.

It is usually an indication of a UTI, but this is not something to worry about, but it should still not be taken lightly. It could also mean the presence of sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, etc.

4. Eye Infection/Irritation

Information that is often overlooked about STDs is that this condition can also be spread through oral sexual intercourse, where one method is when semen or vaginal fluids can be exposed to the eyes and cause infection. Therefore, it is highly recommended to get checked immediately and use condoms at other times to prevent the spread of infection.

5. Pain near the genitals

Pain in any part of the body is an indication of discomfort and should be taken into account. Especially if it occurs in the area around the genitals or stomach, there may be a problem that needs to be watched out for.

For example, swelling of the testicles, bleeding, or even pain during sex can be signs that your body may have an STD or infection.
