PULSE Tips for The WET Season
It is rainy or the monsoon season in Thailand and everywhere else in South East Asia. These lovely shower of rains not only bring people closer together indoor but may also bring unwanted illnesses and diseases. So let's take a closer look on what to lookout for during one of wettest months, so you can prepare your gears right, and be on top of everything perfectly!
Pack your Equipment Appropriately
Let us tell you something. Rains here are quite different from the ones in Europe and the States (unless you're from somewhere that's tropical) as they are heavily influenced by the monsoon winds that can be very intense, often leading to flash floods and landslides. Though usually heavy but brief.
If you're planning to travel during these heavy rainfalls, it is wise to bring your favorite and stylish waterproof jacket, boots, and umbrella.
Or if you do not want to pack all these things into your limited space of the luggage -- Buy all of them here, and we promise you that the fashions here can get super funky and colorful. Check out local shops in your area for the best deals and don't forget to throw in bargaining for some fun.
Dry Off Quickly!
Get yourself into your Best Condition before Visiting!
Rain itself doesn't directly lower the immune system, but the conditions and behaviours associated with these downpours can have an impact on your immune health, so staying fit by staying hydrated and boosting your immune system through a healthy balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals can fortify yours stronger.
Stay Proactive and Positive
The lack of sunlight during the wet season can significantly affect your mood. Keep your spirits up by engaging in activities you enjoy. Try arts and crafts, such as painting, to express yourself and stay busy. Maintain social connections by sending funny reels and memes to friends. Incorporate home workouts like yoga, pilates, and strength training, which are perfect for small spaces. Practice mindfulness through meditation and deep-breathing exercises to stay calm. Start a journal or write poetry to inspire and reflect on yourself. Mixing up these activities and staying flexible can make them more interesting and encourage you to stick with them. Don’t hesitate to switch from one activity to another based on your mood each day!
Embrace the season by finding joy in a rather cozy environment, changing your outlook can make a big difference in how you experience!

Our focus is to improve the quality of people's well-being, with the aim of normalizing sexual health awareness and reducing HIV disease burden across the region. Our ultimate goal is to make more people aware of their status by promoting the benefits of testing, prevention, treatment, and continuous care.
Over the past 10 years, we have been providing quality care to over 100,000 clients globally. After our first years in business, we realized that HIV and sexual health burden is due to stigma and judgmental environment. We came to the understanding that there was a huge demand for not only MSM to have access to a safe and discreet sexual health clinic, but there was a need from all people. Because of this, we expanded our services to more locations in Thailand and internationally to Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Philippines. Pulse looks to continue to expand throughout Asia, as it is one of the biggest hubs of international travel.
We remain committed to being a leading international organization in comprehensive modern sexual health and global research initiatives, while facilitating a non-judgmental environment. PULSE wants to encourage and empower people to live healthy, happy, and be proud of their sexual lifestyle.
