so, does being sexually active, in a doctor's opinion (like they ask you when you go), specially mean HAVING SEX, or does it mean having any kind of sex (ex. manual or oral)?
Razhie answered Wednesday May 10 2006, 12:12 am: Sexually active tends to mean any kind of sexual activity involving another human being. Manual and oral sex can affect your health in a lot of the same ways that vaginal sex can even though the risk of STD's and pregnancy are lower. So, even though I am not a doctor, I would think that yes, sexual active means any kind of sexual activity, even oral or manual.
It's always good to be honest with your doctor and tell them any information they might need. You have no idea what might be relevant, they can't tell anyone else what you tell them, and they only have your best interests at heart, so just tell them what there is to tell.
