Viagra can lead to an increased risk of STIs


According to a new Business Week article, people using products such as Viagra and Cialis show triple the chance of incurring issues involving sexually transmitted infections.

Men taking the drugs, in a study conducted by the Annals of Internal Medicine, were found to have triple the number of STIs than men who continued without any drugs for sexual potency.
“Younger people have more sex partners than older folks,” said Jena, a medical resident in internal medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston, in a June 29 telephone interview. “But per sexual encounter, the actual safeness of the sex is probably lower among older folks in the sense that they don’t use condoms,” he said.
So, basically - you're saying that older people like do 'do it raw' (in the 'with it' jargon). Gross!
