Let me address your practical question about sex toy safety. You don't necessarily need to throw away sex toys after STD treatment, but proper cleaning and sanitization are essential. Most high-quality sex toys can be thoroughly disinfected using appropriate cleaning methods specific to the toy's material (like medical-grade silicone, glass, or stainless steel).

For best practices:
- Clean toys thoroughly before and after each use
- Use appropriate cleaning solutions made for sex toys
- Consider using condoms on toys
- Follow manufacturer cleaning guidelines
- Store properly in clean, dry conditions

If you're concerned about specific cleaning methods, consult the toy manufacturer's care instructions or speak with a healthcare provider for personalized guidance. Remember that different materials require different cleaning approaches to ensure safety.
