A member asked:

My new boyfriend says he's tested negative for std's. should i require him to use a condom although i'm pregnant?

6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: Use a condom until you have actually seen his lab results on paper, including that for herpes and hpv. Also use a condom if there is any, even remote, chance that he is not monogamous with you. Some STDs affect the fetus.
