Health Risks of Swallowing Your Partner's Semen during s£x

 

Many sexual partners oftenly try out different forms of styles while engaging in intimacy. Though, some are within safe zones, others tend to pose certain health risks. In this article, we will outline the various dangers linked with swallowing your partner's male reproductive fluid during intimacy.

According to an online medical site, WebMD, the male reproductive fluid is primarily comprised of spermatozoa (motile cells that can fertilise a female’s eggs to create offspring), water, mucus, plasma, and other nutrients like lactic acid, fructose (which provides energy for the motile cells), zinc, protein, glucose, potassium, and magnesium, amongst others in small concentrations.

It is important to know that the nutrients and calories present in the fluid of a healthy male would pose no health risk to the body when ingested; however, rare cases of allergic reactions to this fluid have been recorded, and this is medically known as seminal plasma hypersensitivity (HSP).

You should also know that swallowing your partner semen is the same thing as engaging in intimacy without protection. Meaning, if your partner's fluid is infected, you can contract sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including bacterial infections like gonorrhoea (caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae) and chlamydia (caused by Chlamydia trachomatis).

It is also important to know that couples who engage in oral intimacy may contract the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV); this is slightly more difficult, but the chances do exist. Herpes and the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which could cause throat cancer, are not exempt from this discussion.

You can also from time to time carefully observe the changes in the colour and smell of the male reproductive fluid, and then consult with a qualified medical doctor.
