[QUOTE=NicFrenchy; 1106664]You cannot compare SAGAMI condoms with the rest, it; s not a Fair Fight!
Sagami are made of Polyurethane which is Flexible, Tough and Resistant. It is Thinner, Tougher (3x tougher than Latex) , conducts heat Better, is odourless and oh very important in Thailand: Oil Resistant.
Once you try one, Going back to Latex will be very difficult.[/QUOTE]Where do you buy these?
[QUOTE=Simian;1089353]DG, no one talks about the chances of getting HIV from a woman who already has HIV. The plain fact is that it is easier for a woman to get HIV from a man than the other way around. Second, you don't automatically get HIV from an infected partner through having unprotected sex one time. According to one expert I spoke with a couple of years ago, the probability of HIV infection after one episode of unprotected sex with an infected woman is about 1 in 250 for the man. In contrast, the chances of infection through sharing needles is almost 100% if the needle is "hot."[/QUOTE]I could be wrong, but one in 250 seems quite low. I'd think maybe add a zero to that. And several zeros if we are speaking of unprotected vaginal intercourse with a random woman.

I've heard it said there is a better chance of getting struck by lightning, winning a million dollar lotto or being killed crossing the street. BTW at least one member here appears to have been getting BBFS for years without contracting HIV. Personally I've recieved dozens and hours of BBBJ's without ever getting even a minor STD.
[QUOTE=]AIDS (to get this out of the way at the outset) : Indulging in sex in.
Thailand is like participating in a high-risk sport where you have no.
Control over your equipment. Sky-diving without knowing who packed your.
Chute, for example; or with no chute at all. The risk is real; there's.
More than a 50% chance your partner (s) will be HIV positive. If you are.
Particularly naive, you can take comfort from the "100% AIDS-Free" badges.
The girls wear in some places. It's your life.[/QUOTE]Fifty percent? That has to be one of the dumbest things ever said on international sex forums, this particular comment coming from a site that is not ISG.
"I suggest you do not arrive in SE Asia (Thailand / Philippines) seeking to have a good time and SEX with the ever willing mature adult girls, women, hookers, escorts of Thailand, without first having your Hepatitis B (and pref A) vaccinations. More Hep B and more fatal deaths than with HIV / Aids, world wide, including Thailand."
That's news to me. Any comments?
i posted this in the bangkok section but i might as well post it here:
went to cowboy a few nights back with a mate. shocking how crowded it was. 25th of the month is when most people get paid, so pretty much all the go-gos were crowded beyond belief. #73 in shark is quite a cutie and has made my list of girls to fuck in the low season. finally made our way to the cocktail club. it's a fairly small and shady dive between long gun and cactus. there are 1 or 2 lookers; the rest are all skanks. anyway i took a girl to the toilet where she proceed to give me a bbbj. one of the worst ever. she was using her teeth too much and i was afraid of having a repeat of what happened to me at [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord900][CodeWord900][/url] a few months back (torn frenulum). i stopped her and offered her 700 baht for a fuck in the stall. bent her over and plunged in. not bad and a first for me.
i do not remember her name but i will be sure to get it and here is why. this morning (tuesday) i woke up and went to the toilet and had a very very slight burning sensation when i pissed. it did not hurt too bad unlike the last time i had this but it was still uncomfortable enough to get me worried. later in the day i went to the toilet again and noticed an ever so slight cloudy discharge. maybe i was imagining things. but as i write this now it still feels uncomfortable and definitely not normal. probably chlamydia. i didn't bother going to the doc. went straight to the pharmacy across from nana plaza (apparently they see this shit all the time). she gave me a box of azithromycin. told me to take 4 pills (1g) tonight and the other 2 tomorrow and it should clear up in a week. last time i had this infection i waited a few days before getting the meds and it burned like fire whenever i pissed. i did not want to wait this time.
in the meantime, i need to think of an excuse to tell my girlfriend why i can't have sex with her for a week. or do i need to wait a week? i'm only taking the dosage tonight and tomorrow. how soon can i have sex?
I see some discussion on ultra thin condoms here. Such as Sagami 0. 02.
Where can I buy these in BKK? I see only the Durex brand in the shops and pharmacies. (Or maybe some of these are Ultrathin too?).
you should also go on a cipro series because azthriomyzina doesn't kill gonerreah. and, you might as well go on a metro series as well because neither of these kill bacteria infections, which she probably had also if she is carrying around chylmidia. you need to lie like a futherfucker to your girl and not have sex with her for at least a week or what can happen is you infect her, and two weeks from now when her infection (s) and / or virus bloom, she will reinfect you.
you really should consider condoms for obvious reasons highlighted by this thread.

[QUOTE=John Traveller;1130642]I see only the Durex brand in the shops and pharmacies. (Or maybe some of these are Ultrathin too?).[/QUOTE]There were other brands, including Japanese, available when I was there in 09-10.
Try the pharmacies across from Nana Plaza, at the intersection of sukh & soi 3/4.
I went to have a check up for hiv at a sti-clinic in Bangkok the other day at the Red Cross anonymous clinic. Some waiting before the test. 1 hour. (I don't know if it's shorter time at other clinics). Then it's 1 hour waiting to get the result. The testing here is anonymous, no need to give away any name or so. It is said that they take fingerprints, but I cannot remember they took that of me. Before the test you fill out a form and then go into a office to answer some questions: Q: when was the last time for sex? A: yesterday, but also one month ago. Q: Female worker? A: Yes.
Good staff. I can recommend this clinic. Address: corner of Ratchadamri and Salasin. Skytrain: Ratchadamri. Building on right side when you walk south from this skytrain station.
It's strange how you worry in these situations, feeling this and that symptoms here and there, then it turns out to be nothing.

Thank you for the report, this is really useful. How much does it cost at Red Cross? Is it clean and do they seem professional (e. G. Unpacking a new sterile needle in front of you when drawing blood)?
The 1hr wait before is a bit longer than in most places. I can recommend Sukhumwit hospital near BTS Ekkamai with about a 10 min wait. Paolo hospital near BTS Saphan Kwai is OK, but nurses seem incompetent ("Chlamydia? What's that? Can you see a doctor first to figure out what STD test to take?").
Wait for results is 1-2h everywhere, but that's easier since can go somewhere for a walk and come back. You don't have to queue in a hospital revisiting your deepest fears.
The HIV tests are rather cheap. 500 baht or so, but it gets up to 900 if you also do VDRL (Syphilis and Gonorrhea) , and you should since you're there and drawing blood anyway. Hepatitis is a good to watch out for as well (I think they can do it with same blood sample. 1hr). Chlamydia blood test takes 7+ days, that's a annoying.
As for anonymity. For citizens of countries with crappy health insurance schemes (say, USA or Thailand) , anonymity is [B]essential[/B]. If you go under your own name, future insurance will refuse to pay due to a pre-existing condition. Most places require an I'd (I asked to remain anonymous at Sukhumwit hospital, but they refused). However, a blurry passport copy is accepted, so it's easy to sign up under a different name (photoshop a fake one or get it made at KSR).

end of quote / shortened.
chlmyidia is usually tested like gonorrhea. with a swab from inside the penis. (urethea?)
i get swapped every month and it takes between 1 hour to six hours. depending on the lab.
some say the next day.
in usa they can do [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109][CodeWord109][/url] for chlmydia and gonorrhea.
there are a bunch of other little problems that can happen.
nsu. non specific ureits? something like that.
i have studied the girls in asia a lot and don't go with one until she is tested so i am always talking to labs for testing and doctors.
i never heard of blood test for chlymdia or gonorrhea?
only hiv and syphilis. (spelling might be wrong?)
be really careful of misdiagnosis in asia.
get second opinion and retest if you have anything. unless its really high quality doctor and hospital.
also they can miss a lot.
some things do not have symptoms that are noticeable or are so slight you may think its a normal itch?
so you can go by symptoms and if you are fucking a lot without condoms you need a good doctor and test of everything when you can.
in angeles there is a 50% infection rate or higher of girls working the bars. most are really minor things and easy to get rid of.
there are good clinics in pattaya on most of the sois. last one i visited was on soi 13/2. doctor will test for anything and everything. not really cheap if you test for everything you can. (std)
i know excellent doctor in angeles philippines.
in pattaya i also go to bangkok hospital pattaya for complete check ups. including heart and most other health issues.
[QUOTE=WestFLA;1130648]You should also go on a cipro series because azthriomyzina doesn't kill gonerreah.[/QUOTE]Actually azithromycin does cure gonorrhea. The dose previously recommended was a 1 gram does to kill both gonorrhea and chlamydia, but nowadays I think they recommend 1. 5 or 2 grams. Still. 1 gram normally does work.
Really up-to-date Thai pharmacists will recommend a 1 gram one time dose of azithromycin and a 400 mg one time dose of Cefspan (oral) to cure both, but Cefspan is difficult to find and 99% of the time the azithromycin works alone, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Sagami, BTW, are looking to hire distributors, so maybe we'll start to see them around.
