Does frequent change of sexual partners lead to AIDS

Frequent replacement of sexual partners will indeed increase the probability of AIDS infection. AIDS is mainly transmitted through sexual contact, blood transmission and mother to child transmission, and unprotected sex is one of the main ways of infection. When there are a large number of sexual partners and insufficient protection, the probability of exposure to the virus will significantly increase.

AIDS virus exists in semen, vaginal secretions and blood of infected persons. When changing sexual partners frequently and not using condoms, the virus may enter the body through mucosal damage or direct contact. Having multiple sexual partners means being able to come into contact with more potential infected individuals, especially when the other party has high-risk behaviors or unknown infection status. Even if the probability of infection during a single sexual activity is low, repeated exposure can accumulate risk.

In a few cases, a fixed single sex partner may also be infected with AIDS, for example, the partner conceals the history of infection or has other high-risk behaviors. But compared to frequently changing sexual partners, the risk of long-term fixed and tested relationships is significantly reduced. The spread of the virus requires specific conditions, and not all unprotected behavior will lead to infection.

The most effective way to prevent AIDS is to insist on using condoms, reduce the number of sexual partners and conduct regular testing. It is also important to avoid sharing needles and choose reputable medical institutions for invasive procedures. If high-risk behavior occurs, blocking drugs can be used within 72 hours to reduce the risk of infection. Maintaining awareness of safe sexual behavior and timely understanding of one's partner's health status can effectively protect oneself and others.
