Q: Is it necessary to use or wear a condom while having sex in a hot tub?
A: There are urban myths that having unprotected sex in a hot tub prevents pregnancy and STDs. These are definitely myths. Having sex without condoms can result in pregnancy or an STD regardless whether your in a hot tub or not. The chlorine in the water does not protect you. If possible, have a condom on when you have sex. Know your partner and also ask their “history.” It may help make a better decision on whether to have sex in the hot tub or at all.
Also, hot tubs have a lot of bacteria. Sometimes when women have sex in hot tubs they might develop a urinary tract infection.
