A member asked:
How dangerous is it to have sex with a condom only?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A condom: Can significantly improve safety of sexual intercourse but it is not a guarantee that one will not develop an std. For instance, skin that is not covered by a condom could still be impacted by herpes (through viral shedding) or human papilloma virus through direct contact.
