Herpes

Herpes

Herpes is caused by a virus, not by bacteria. As such, antibiotics have no effect. There are two herpes viruses that are labeled sexually transmitted, herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2). HSV-1 is the virus that is generally associated with cold sores around the mouth and the lips. It can be spread to the genitals. HSV-2 is generally spread via genital contact.

Trichomoniasis

A single celled parasite is the cause of trichomoniasis. CDC calls it a common sexually transmitted disease. There are about 5 million new cases each year. Women tend to be infected in the vagina, men in the urethra. Men seldom have symptoms but may experience slight discomfort after urination. Women will have a yellow-green discharge that has a strong odor.

What is STD

What is STD

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that can be transferred from one person to another through any type of sexual contact. STDs are sometimes referred to as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) since they involve the transmission of a disease-causing organism from one person to another during sexual activity. It is important to realize that sexual contact includes more than just sexual intercourse (vaginal and anal). Sexual contact includes kissing, oral-genital contact, and the use of sexual "toys," such as vibrators.

Codom use

Condoms are one of the best ways for people who are sexually active to help avoid sexually transmitted diseases (also known as sexually transmitted infections) as well as help prevent an unwanted pregnancy. However, it is important to know how to properly use a condom, and to use them consistently, in order for them to be the most beneficial.

Candidiasis

A fungal infection (= mycosis) is an infection caused by a fungus. Fungi consist of yeasts or moulds according to their appearance and means of growth. Candida species is a well known example of yeast-like fungi involved in infections.

Genital warts

Genital warts

Genital warts are very common. There are many strains of the wart virus and they tend to affect specific parts of the body. Genital warts are usually spread by sexual contact. Some people have obvious warts, but others carry the virus and pass it on without having any obvious signs of warts. Genital warts may not appear for months, or even years after infection has occurred. Treatment involves removing the warts by "freezing" or applying a lotion.

Gonorrhea

Gonorrhea

Gonorrhea is caused by a type of bacteria called Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It easily grows in the mucous membranes of the body and other warm moist places. The female reproductive tract and the urethra of both men and women are the most common places infected, but not the only ones. There are cases of eye and throat infections caused by the bacteria.

Syphilis

Syphilis is caused by a type of bacteria called Treponema pallidum. It causes sores and those sores are the way the disease is passed on during sexual contact. It does take direct contact however. The bacteria can be passed on by an infected woman to her unborn child, resulting in death for the fetus or the child soon after birth. Over 30 thousand people are infected each year.
