Health risks linked to allowing a man to finger you during Sex

According to Healthline Hands-on affection is a common practice among young people and sometimes even adults. A simple definition of manual intimacy is touching a woman's genitalia with one's finger.

When it comes down to it, many couples, including those who are not married, engage in copulation under the false assumption that no disease can be transmitted in this way.

In light of a recent article posted on Very Well Health, we'll take a look at the potential health problems that can arise from this kind of relationship. This article will shed light on the topic for anyone who has been partaking in it under the false impression that it is harmless.
What kind of health dangers might there be if you let a man put his finger on you while you're copulating?

The possibility of catching syphilis is a major drawback. This is because syphilis can be transmitted through the fingernails of an infected person, so it's best to avoid having any physical contact with your partner if you have any doubts about his health. Syphilis is a serious illness that, if left untreated, can cause severe complications and even death.

Human papillomavirus infection is caused by a virus that is spread or caught through direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person.

Research also shows that HPV can be found in the fingernails, making it a disease that could be transmitted if you let a man touch you.

Third, letting a man use his finger during intimate contact is a known risk factor for acquiring gonorrhoea.

The simple reason is that engaging in such behaviour can expose you to the risk of contracting gonorrhoea, and as a result, you should be selective about who you allow to engage in such behaviour with you.
