  What are STD’s? Sexuallytransmitted diseases (STDs), are infections that spread from one person to another through sexual contact. They have become common among teens and can affect anyone. STDs are a serious health problem that when left untreated, can result in infertility and even death. STDs can be spread through vaginal, oral or anal sex, as well as through skin-to- skin contact with an infected area or sore.

  Risk Factors 01 Startingsexual activity at an early age Statistically, a person that starts having sexual intercourse at a early age is more likely to get an STD. 02 Having multiple sex partners People that participate in any type of intimate activity with many different partners are more likely to get an STD. 03 Having unprotected sex The only form of birth control method that protect you againts STD’s is the latex condoms.

  STD’S CAUSED BY VIRUSES

  Acquired immunodeficiency syndromeor AIDS Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or AIDS, one of the most serious, deadly diseases in human history. Is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus HIV. The immune system weakens and people can get serious infections that they normally wouldn’t get (Hirsch, 2014). Homosexual men make up the largest portion of people with AIDS in the U.S., but the fastest rate of increase is now seen in heterosexuals, and over half of all new HIV infections are occurring in people under the age of 25 (Mader, 2011). HIV can be transmitted from an infected person to another person through blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. Babies born to HIV infected mothers may become infected before, during or after birth (Hirsch, 2014). When a person first becomes infected with HIV, the virus rapidly replicates itself and spreads throughout the lymphoid tissues of the body. Even though the person’s blood has a high “viral load” at this point, the results of an HIV test would probably come back negative because the test is for the presence of anti-HIV antibodies, which are not detectable for about 25 days. This means that in the earliest stage of an HIV infection, a person can be highly infections while still testing negative for the presence of HIV antibodies (Mader, 2011).

  Risk factors foracquiring an HIV infection include the following : Having unprotected sexual intercourse. Unprotected means not using a latex condom. Sharing needles such as those used for injecting drugs or for tattooing. Having another STD. These people are at greater risk of getting HIV during sex with an infected partner. Being pregnant with an HIV infection can pass the virus onto the offspring before, during, or after birth. Because AIDS is fatal, it is important to diagnose it early so that treatments with medications to delay the onset of AIDs can begin. There is no cure for HIV, and that is why prevention is so important. Combinations of antiviral drugs and drugs that boost the immune system allow people with HIV to resist infections, stay healthy and prolong their life, but they are not a cure, and at present, there is no vaccine available to prevent HIV and AIDS.

  Genital Herpes Thereare two types that can cause genital herpes, HSV-1 and HSV-2, with HSV-2 being the most common cause. HSV-1 is the virus responsible for cold sores of fever blisters around the mouth but it can be transmitted through oral sex to the genitals of the other person. In genital herpes, sores are present in the genital area and the virus that causes it can be transmitted through vaginal, oral or anal sex when infected skin touches the genitals. Sometimes it can cause sores in the mouth, and can be spread by saliva. Since the virus can’t live long outside the body, an object such as a toilet seat can’t spread genital herpes.

  Symptoms of GenitalHerpes The first symptoms to appear are itching or pain in the genital area, followed by sores that appear about 2-20 days after being infected with the virus. The sores may open up, secrete fluid, or bleed. 01 The first outbreak of herpes can take from one week to several weeks to heal. The entire genital area is painful, and the person may have flu-like symptoms such as fever, headache, and swollen lymph nodes. 02 Future outbreaks tend to be shorter and less severe, with sores healing faster. After the herpes blisters disappear the virus stays hidden in the body until the next outbreak when the virus reactivates itself and the sores return, usually in the same area. 03 The number of outbreaks per year varies among individuals from none to as many as five, and usually the number decreases over time. 04 There is no cure for herpes; it remains in the body and is passed on to others through unprotected sex, even when blisters are not present, but more likely if they are. Taking antiviral medication lessen the chance of spreading the infection to someone else. Having genital herpes increases the risk of a person getting HIV.

  Genital warts Genital wartsare flat or raised growths found on or near the genital areas such as the vulva, vagina, cervix or anus in females; and the penis, scrotum or anus in males. They are caused by a group of viruses called the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are over 100 types of HPV, and most of them cause the warts such as those seen on the hands and feet. Currently, there is no cure for an HPV infection, and although warts can be removed by different techniques, the virus still remains inside the body and can be transmitted to others through sexual contact. Most HPV infections have no signs or symptoms, which means that a person can be infected and pass it on to others without knowing. A vaccine named Gardasil now exists that is effective against four of the most common types of HPV in the U.S.

  Women symptoms Sample02 Sample 03 Men symptoms GONORRHEA What is it? Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by infection with the Neisseria gonorrhoeae bacterium. N. gonorrhoeae infects the mucous membranes of the reproductive tract, including the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tubes in women, and the urethra in women and men. An unusual vaginal discharge, which may be thin or watery and green or yellow in colour. pain or a burning sensation when passing urine. pain or tenderness in the lower abdominal area An unusual discharge from the tip of the penis, which may be white, yellow or green. pain or a burning sensation when urinating. inflammation (swelling) of the foreskin. pain or tenderness in the testicles – this is rare. Gonorrhea can be cured with antibiotics, typically a combination of ceftriaxone and azithromycin, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. It's important to complete the full course of treatment to ensure the infection is completely eradicated.

  Primary syphilis Secondary syphilis Latentsyphilis Tertiary syphilis Syphilis Syphilis is an STD caused by the bacteria Treponema pallidum, and the disease occurs in different stages: primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary syphilis. The first stage of the disease, where red, firm, painless sores called chancre, appear in areas such as the vagina, rectum, penis, or mouth. After a few weeks the chancre will disappear. The person will breakout in a rash in areas like the soles of the feet and palms of the hands. And may also present flu-like symptoms such as aches and fever. Syphilis is still contagious during this stage. All signs of the disease have disappeared but remains present. Syphilis can remain latent for years. The final stage of the disease. The bacteria have spread all over the body and can affect the brain, eyes, heart, spinal cord and bones. Symptoms can include difficulty walking, numbness, gradual blindness and even death.
