Do you have any STD's or other infectious/transferable diseases at the moment?

Disclosing current STIs (sexually transmitted infections) or other communicable conditions is a crucial aspect of negotiating safer BDSM interactions. This information allows all parties to make informed decisions about activities, protection methods, and risk acceptance levels.

Honest communication about your current health status demonstrates respect for partners and responsibility within the community. If applicable, you might include information about what condition you have, how it's managed, transmission risks for different activities, and what precautions you take. Remember that many STIs are manageable or curable, and disclosure is about safety rather than judgment.
