Answer: No!!
The only way to completely prevent STDs or pregnancy is to not have sex. You can reduce your STD risk if you use latex condoms faithfully, nothing but abstinence is 100%. Avoid any contact with sores on the penis, vagina, or elsewhere on the body. Prevent any exchange of semen, blood, and vaginal secretions between you and others.
Douching does not prevent pregnancy and may even make it easier to get pregnant by pushing the sperm further up into the vagina and cervix. The best way to prevent pregnancy is to talk to your doctor or nurse about what would be right for you in addition to using condoms. Remember only complete barriers such as latex condoms or female dams can help to prevent STDs. Other forms of birth control can not prevent STDs.
