Sexually transmitted diseases remain rampant in the USA. The most common are chlamydia, human papilloma virus, gonorrhea, syphilis and HIV.

Why no sexual activity during the critical 3 days?

EPD FAQ (Enzyme Potentiated Desensitization FAQ)
The EPD patient may become sensitized to body fluids from their partner. Women, in particular, may become sensitize/reactive to their spouse's semen. This may jeopardize the relationship over the next months. Better three days abstinence than three months. Body fluids from the EPD patient can carry the EPD serum and hence "treat" the unsuspecting recipient with an uncontrolled dose. The recipient has not followed EPD rules and may get a severe reaction to EPD.
