    How to prevent LGV transmission?

     

    • The systematic use of a condom ensures a good measure of prevention with respect to all sexually transmitted illnesses, including LGV. The condom must be used appropriately and must not be expired (check the date);
    • In the presence of a papule (pimple), ulcer or unusual redness, it is important to refrain from sexual activities and to consult a physician;
    • It is important to discuss issues of sexual health with all sexual partners. Ask current or new sexual partner about their previous sexually transmitted illness history (Have they ever done screening test?);
    • Ensure that all sexual partners (in the previous 90 days) are advised of an LGV diagnosis so as to break the chain of transmission and to ensure the prevention of reinfection.
