    A review of what’s new!

    Recent research advances have made available extremely accurate urine tests which make testing of males more feasible and less uncomfortable than older tests. In addition, single-dose antibiotic therapy promises to substantially enhance the likelihood of successful treatment -- especially in adolescents -- as compared to commonly used 7-day oral medication. Seek help from your doc!

    Prevention is the best bet; condoms for penetration are not new, however, flavored or flavorless condoms for oral sex (fellatio) do exist! Dental dams, or a sheet of latex used to cover the female external genitalia may be used to practice safe cunnilingus and are more widely available than in the past. Visit your local pharmacist or condom shop.
