Are STDs Possible Through Threesome Sex?
I am 26yrs of age and for the first time I am having an affair with a married man. My question is this, I have been tested for all possible STD's and HIV/ AIDS and my results were negative and so has he and his wife. If all three of us are negative to all teh above mentioned, Can I now contract any STD (PID, etc.) as a result of this union. I know for a fact he doesn't use condoms on both of us, however I have take precautionary measure to prevent pregnancy.

Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
As a matter of fact, it is always safe and morally right to have a single trustworthy sexual partner and vice versa and he or she should be the one with whom you can plan for a long term commitment.
You should also look at the practicality of this involvement rather than just sexual involvement.
In my view you are the only one who has everything to lose and nothing to gain out of this relationship.
Even if testing had revealed nothing in terms of STD's and all three of you are probably safe, nevertheless this type of behaviour is always a risk in terms of STD's because you cannot always be sure about the other two, whether they will engage or are already engaged with others sexually.
Regards
Always practice safe sex with a condom!
