Due to communication about use of contraceptive, the risk for unwanted pregnancy and contracting STIs is dramatically lowered. This has become the most important aspect in use of contraceptive because without a discussion before sexual encounters, assumptions can be made that may be off course. If a male partner assumes that a female partner is on birth control without affirming, an unwanted pregnancy could occur. If a female partner assumes that another female partner is STI-free simply because there are no outward symptoms of one, then an STI could be spread. Communication prior to intimate physical activity is certainly key to having a healthy, safe sex life. ]]> 2022-07-07 07:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2238774328 https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2241033179 "Research has demonstrated that couples who are able to communicate effectively about contraception are more likely to use contraception consistently and are therefore at lower risk of unwanted pregnancy and contracting STIs" (Hock, 2016, p. 146). Communication is essential to relationships especially when it develops into a more intimate relationship. This factor is most important because when there isn't communication about contraceptive methods it can possibly lead to pregnancy which can destroy a relationship if they both weren't trying to have a baby. Another important factor to mention if communication isn't occurring about contraception is personal responsibility. It is an individual's responsibility to protect themselves from pregnancy and STIs by using a contraceptive method. This is important because even if communication hasn't occurred it can prevent pregnancy and STIs from occurring.

Communication is the key to any relationship, let alone a sexual one. Transparency is especially important when taking into account not only your body but someone else's, and putting the possibility of a baby into the mix adds an immense amount of responsibility. The use of communication in a sexual relationship ultimately decreases the possibility of an unwanted pregnancy through the use of contraceptives. ]]> 2022-07-11 23:33:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2241305898 https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2242179590 I believe that communication and teamwork are both hand and hand the most important things in a relationship. Having a true partner in life is something that is effective in a relationship. When being a parent, it is especially important that teamwork and communication is happening in the relationship. In my marriage, we work together to get things done around the house and I believe that we will work very well one day when we have children. ]]> 2022-07-13 00:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2242179590 https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2242872945 In any relationship, communication is key to so many things and that includes being able to talk about contraceptives. If you are in a relationship where you are able to openly discuss how and what contraceptives you will be using, studies find that the risk of unwanted. If you decided to be intimate with someone, being able to communicate about contraceptives should come pretty easily, and if it doesn't, maybe you are not at that step in the relationship yet, or maybe you never will be. Trust is such a huge component of communication and I think it plays a huge role in knowing you can count on the other person to be responsible and talk with you about their feelings, contraceptive choices, and even STI's.

When it comes to preventing unwanted pregnancies and avoiding STIs it is important for partners to communicate about several different aspects. For example, communicating when the last time one was tested and informing a partner if one is positive for any STIs. If someone knows that they are positive for an STI and they don't communicate that to their partner and they decide not to use protection, that partner is now at risk and they run the risk of infecting future partners. In the case of unwanted pregnancies, it is important for women to disclose whether they are on birth control. If they do not inform their partner and they decide not to use any other form of contraceptive, then there is higher risk of unwanted pregnancy.]]> 2022-07-13 23:53:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bawarner07/3ii0o66y9g3o/wish/2242904552
