Hello Doctor,

 

I’m a virgin and planning to have sex for the first time. What steps can I take to ensure it’s safe for both me and my partner?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

It's important to discuss your options with a doctor to ensure you're making informed decisions. One option could be to start low-dose oral contraceptives, which can help prevent pregnancy and regulate your menstrual cycle. However, it's essential to have a consultation to address any concerns or health conditions you may have before starting any medication.

 

Thanks
