Syphilis as well as other sexually transmitted diseases, but is spread by sexual contact with an infected person. You can easily find out if after several days of having a sexual relationship appears in the genitals (penis, foreskin, sulcus balanopreputial in man or minor labia, vulva in women), a hard base painless ulcer accompanied by swollen glands in the groin. If this happens, quickly go to a doctor to make you a treatment that is one hundred percent effective: if you do not disappear the ulcer and the infection will spread throughout the body damaging it irreversibly. The painless ulcer that appears on the genitals disappear spontaneously, giving the false sense of healing. But not, as the disease spreads silently through the body, appearing several months after a series of spots on the skin and swollen glands in the armpit, neck and groin. This condition is called secondary syphilis.If you have sexual contact at this stage, inevitably rub off to your partner.

Subsequently, over the years, the disease begins to destroy major organs such as heart, brain and spinal cord occur in heart failure, dementia, paralysis and death. This state is known as tertiary syphilis. Currently it is very difficult to reach these levels, since treatment of syphilis is early and very good.  Venereal diseases are very common. Over 13 million new cases are diagnosed each year. Roughly between the ages of 15 and 55 will contract a venereal disease. Of the more than 20 STDs, the information below focuses on some of the most common, chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea and genital herpes, and in the most serious, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Infectious diseases that have as their common characteristic, transmitted through sexual contact. Here we present a number of diseases among these diseases are: Gonorrhea (Gonorrhea or Clap) Syphilis, Genital herpes, genital Herpes Venereal Warts Vaginitis these diseases are relatively common worldwide. Speaking of venereal disease or sexually transmitted refers to those infectious processes whose transmission is sexual contact. How do you get STDs?As the name implies, venereal diseases can be and usually are transmitted through sexual intercourse [sex], whether vaginal, oral or anal sex.

After a few years in the market, and their emergence has led to prejudice and false beliefs, which were eliminated. In the early stages of research and clinical use, has proven highly effective with few side effects. Today, sildenafil citrate, known as Viagra has become one of the most used drugs, and that in recent years, its worldwide sales rose a dizzying manner. Commotion by the appearance of the famous pill, which was originally developed Viagra (sildenafil citrate) as a treatment for heart problems. However, later studies showed that this pill also increased blood flow to the penis, so quickly was considered effective for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (impotence). Viagra was approved by the Agency of food and medicine in the United States in 1998. Since then it has become popular, and today is available in over 90 countries.  Has proven effective in treating impotence.

This may be caused by aging, vascular disease, diabetes, prostate operations, spinal cord injuries and even have psychological origins. Sildenafil, which is marketed under the name Viagra, favors the increase of blood supply to the penis, causing erection. But this drug only works when the man is sexually aroused. Despite the upheaval that brought the advent of Viagra, in the medical, media and popular at first sales were not expected and the acceptance by the patients was with some trepidation and reluctance. However, sildenafil is a drug, both in the stages of research and in clinical use, has proven highly effective with few side effects. It is important to note that this is a drug for a specific medical and psychological condition: erectile dysfunction. Although there are people who use it to improve sexual performance, and is even being considered for use in women.

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES (STDs)

GONORRHEA  GENITAL HERPES URETHRITIS OTHERS

Sexually transmitted diseases are contagious, ie q is infectious and is spread, are spread through contact or sexual intercourse. Usually no symptoms in the early stages of development. A sexually transmitted diseases are also known disease-STD, "but the World Health Organization (WHO) prefers to use the name of sexual transmitted diseases (STDs)  Currently, these diseases have a high incidence in the population and growing progressive despite scientific advances in this field, such as antibiotic use and the awareness that this is to instill in people about these diseases. Venezuela, does not escape this high incidence, so it is very important to know what these diseases, how they are acquired, how they heal and how they can be controlled, because the ignorance and fear are the main factors hindering the eradication of these sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).

Sexually transmitted diseases are not exclusive groups of people, but they do not distinguish race, sex, age, social class, religion and education, any person may have and therefore becomes important participation of all to eradicate this scourge ends with the entire populations.  Most times the spread of sexually transmitted disease occurs through ignorance, fear, lack of prophylaxis, which has Immediate consequence propagation. It is very important  to know what are the means of acquiring them and what are the symptoms and immediately seeking medical care or sanitarian specialist to indicate this treatment. Most times people do not complain to doctors, but by fear or grief q prefer to self-medicate, and that far from resolving the problem is making things worse. The uncontrolled and inappropriate use of drugs creates serious health damage.

In our country, the incidence of STDs is very high, although the data are handled in the Ministry of Health and Social Development (MSDS) are not completely accurate, since in this type of disease, people with " shame or fear, not always by attending specialized centers. In other cases, attend private clinics, these cases generally are not taken into account in developing the statistical data. Either way, the data indicate q handled in recent years have seen a dramatic increase in sexually transmitted diseases, possibly due to increased population, the practices of sexual function at an early age, sexual variants used, the inappropriate use of antibiotics that have allowed these disease-causing organisms become resistant to them.  If you have any suspicion of a sexually transmitted disease, we should remember the following: Identification of the sexually transmitted disease, Possible source of transmission of FMD, Development and disease complications, Adequate treatment, Sexual implications...

Usually the source of infection is person to person:

Sexual contact*

By oral contact

Through the mother's placenta

Birth, ie at birth

Blood transfusions or plasma

For syringes, by contaminated needles or sharp objects (knives, blades, etc.)..

All these ways of acquiring sexually transmitted diseases are very important to know and thus may be taken precautionary measures to prevent these diseases.  The development of sexually transmitted diseases is highly variable. Usually the symptoms do not appear at the contact, but after several days and in other cases, several months after infection. STDs can damage body organs, affect the person's nervous system and cause severe alterations in behavior, such as neurosis, which if not treated on time can be fatal, since individuals are socially isolated, damaging the integrity and welfare family and community. The aim of the report then is to analyze some of the sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) which are:

Gonorrhea

Genital herpes

Urethritis

So we are aware of the development of these diseases at national level, taking into account their Definition, symptoms, studies done to end the  Spread of these diseases, and treatment should be used to cure the body of them. SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES (STDs)  They tend to get directly from person to person through sexual contact. However, it also can be transmitted by kissing or close bodily contact. Some pathogens can also be transmitted via food, blood transfusions, medical instruments or syringes used by drug addicts.

GONORRHEA. This disease is caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It infects the lining of the urethra, cervix, rectum and throat or conjunctiva of the eye. The bacteria can spread to other parts of the body through the blood. Suffer equally men and women, and can pass both in the same way. It does not give immunity to the sufferer, which means that, once healed, the subject can get it again.

GENERAL SYMPTOMS. Symptoms in the case of men begin with mild discomfort in the urethra followed by a pain intensity varies with urination. The opening of the penis can acquire a reddish hue and suffer swelling. Women usually have no symptoms at first. The former usually appear  after several weeks or even months after infection. The disease is detected only after

Habérsela discovered their partner. However, there are women who do have symptoms, such as an increased urge to urinate, pain during urination, vaginal discharge and fever. They can also be infected, ovaries, fallopian tubes and the urethra, causing intense pain in the pelvis. If infected fluids come into contact with eyes, may occur outside of the eye infection called conjunctivitis gonococcal. In most infected men is diagnosed by analyzing a sample of urethral discharge. While there is no specific blood test to detect gonorrhea, can however take a blood sample to see if the person has syphilis or infection with the AIDS virus, since it is common in some people have more than one STD at a time.

SYMPTOMS

In Women:

Vaginal discharge
Pain or burning during urination
Difficulty starting urination
Sore throat
Painful intercourse
Oral ulcers

In Men:

Increased urinary frequency or urinary urgency
Incontinence
Urethral discharge
Painful urination
Erythematous and edematous lesions on the penis (urethra).
Testicular tenderness

TREATMENT  Gonorrhea is usually treated with intramuscular ceftriaxone single injection or a cure of antibiotics. If the infection has spread through the blood, the patient is usually hospitalized for intravenous antibiotic therapy.
 
GENITAL HERPES It is a sexually transmitted viral infection characterized by repeated episodes of eruptions of small blisters, painful on the genitals, around the rectum, or covering adjacent areas of skin. SPREADING They are transmitted through direct skin contact with skin. This happens when the infected area comes in contact with mucous membranes, mouth to genitals usually Most of the skin on the body is too thick for the virus can enter. If a person with oral herpes has sex, the couple was probably infected with genital herpes  If a person with genital herpes has sex, perhaps your partner will be infected. The herpes can be transmitted even when no symptoms are present, this is because the virus enters a phase called asymptomatic reactivation, but contagious. There is evidence that the virus is transmitted by sitting in a bath, using towels of someone infected, and so on. The virus is very fragile and can not survive for long periods.

SYMPTOMS  It may have some symptoms, days after being infected, or after weeks, months or years. Some people may have a severe outbreak, days after being infected or may be so slight as not knowing. It is difficult for a person who keeps sex with multiple partners, knowing when, where or who was the one who caught it. Symptoms can last from 3 to 4 weeks, but usually are relieved from 2 to 12 days. May occur: blisters, pimples, bumps, pain, itching, burning in the genital area and these can be very annoying and painful. Flu-like symptoms (headache, fever, sore throat, swollen lymph glands near the groin.

Painful urination Some people confuse these outbreaks, mosquito bites, irritation, some hair buried, and so on.

AREA APPEARANCE When a person has genital herpes, the virus remains asleep at the base of the nerves in the spine. When it reactivates, travels down the nerves to the surface, sometimes causing an outbreak. All the nerves in the genitals are connected, so that a person can have outbreaks in areas such as vagina, vulva, penis, testicles, anus, etc..

PERIOD OF OCCURRENCE This depends on many factors and varies from person to person may occur from 1 to 5 outbreaks a year. The first outbreak may be the strongest will. May occur with any disease, poor nutrition, physical or mental stress, some medications, surgeries, etc..

PREVENTION

Outbreaks can be controlled in some way taking a healthy diet, manage stress, exercise and enough sleep. If you have any discomfort or symptoms in the mouth is important to avoid oral sex until the signs and pains have disappeared or healed If you have symptoms in the genital area, you should avoid having sex until discomfort or symptoms disappear. When there are no symptoms, you should use a latex condom for each sexual intercourse to reduce the risk of spreading The use of microbicides or spermicides do not reduce the risk, if you use, you must also use a latex condom. If you have symptoms and discomfort, you should discuss it with your partner, to take precautionary measures. In the first symptoms, consult your doctor It is important to remember that prevention and early detection can help you live better.

URETHRITIS

Is an inflammation (irritation with presence of extra immune cells) of the urethra.

CAUSES, EFFECTS AND RISK FACTORS

Urethritis may be caused by the same organisms that cause urinary tract infections (eg Eschericchia coli and Klebsiella) and some sexually transmitted diseases (eg, chlamydia, gonorrhea, and Ureaplasma urealyticum infections). Viral causes of urethritis include herpes simplex virus and cytomegalovirus. Similarly, urethritis may develop because of a chemical irritant (such as condoms and spermicides in jellies, creams or foams) and can also be caused by trauma. The greatest risk is associated with men between 20 and 35, multiple sexual partners and those who pose a high risk sexual behavior (such anal sex without condoms).

INTRODUCTION

Gonorrhea is defined as a man of infectious disease transmitted by sexual contact that primarily affects the mucous membranes of urogenital tract. It is characterized by a purulent discharge and is caused by bacteria, the gonococcus (Neisseria gonorrhoeae). The incubation period is two to seven days.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

Gonorrhea is most obvious in males, in which there is a significant purulent urethral discharge. The pus, which at first is small, it becomes thick and abundant, and causes frequent urination usually accompanied by a burning sensation. If the infection reaches the prostate the passage of urine is partially blocked. In women, the infection is located in the urethra, vagina or cervix. Although the discharge and irritation of the vaginal mucosa can be serious, it often has no symptoms at first or are minimal.

The diagnosis of gonorrhea is made quickly by staining a smear of the exudate reveals causing bacteria. In the early stages is usually effective treatment. If untreated, the man early symptoms may decrease although the infection may spread to the testicles causing sterility. In untreated women, infection usually spreads from the cervix into the uterus and fallopian tubes, causing pelvic inflammatory disease. There may be pain or persisting infection with few or no symptoms, gradually wounding and causing tubal infertility. In both sexes the gonococcus may enter the bloodstream, causing infectious arthritis, myocarditis, or other diseases. In pregnant women gonorrhea can be transmitted to the infant during delivery and, if untreated, cause a serious eye infection.

Treatment

Penicillin is the treatment that is often used against gonorrhea, although over the years have developed an increasing number of strains resistant to penicillin. Other effective antibiotics are tetracyclines, spectinomycin, and the latest called cephalosporins, one of which, ceftriaxone, can be solved with a single injection of uncomplicated gonorrhea, including infections resistant to penicillin.

In most large cities in the United States and Europe have created clinics where young people can receive treatment for gonorrhea. One of the most difficult to control the disease is the location of all recent sexual partners of an infected person to prevent the spread of the disease.

Gonorrhea in men:

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (also known as gonorrhea) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae (or gonococcus).

Causes and risk factor insidencias

Gonorrhea is one of the most common bacterial diseases, and transmission usually occurs during sexual intercourse, both vaginal and anal or oral sex. Gonorrhea is a highly contagious disease, and all countries require disclosure to health authorities.

The incidence is 1 in 687 inhabitants per year.

Although gonorrhea is found in all geographical areas and social classes, no uniform distribution because the population has a greater impact in:

*

Major urban areas.
*

People with lower levels of education.
*

People of lower socioeconomic status.
*

Persons aged between 15 and 29.
*

Persons with multiple sex partners.
*

Risk factors also include having a partner with a past history of any STD, and practice unprotected sex (sex without a condom).

In adolescents and children, transmission can occur through nonsexual contact, but is rare. Among boys the risk of acquiring gonorrhea vaginal after an exchange with an infected woman is about 20% (1 chance in 5). In women the risk of acquiring gonorrhea from a male infected is higher.

The average incubation period of gonorrhea is between 2 and 5 days after sexual contact with an infected partner. Symptoms may not appear until after 2 weeks.

The most common initial symptom is a discharge urethral mucosa (white or light) or purulent (thick, yellowish). Appears at the opening of the penis and may stain the underwear. Other symptoms include painful urination and burning sensation in the urethra. A small number of men do not have symptoms.

Anorectal Gonorrhea is more common in gay men (it is also about 50% of women with gonorrhea). Most of the people with anorectal gonorrhea no symptoms but, if you have any, the most typical is proctitis.

A small percentage of people with gonorrhea have only a throat infection (gonococcal pharyngitis).

10% to 25% of homosexual men (10 to 20% women) with gonorrhea also develop gonococcal pharyngitis.

Gonococcal conjunctivitis (eye infection) is very rare in adults. Usually only occurs in infants born to mothers with gonorrhea, and is called ophthalmia neonatorum.

Gonorrhea is often associated with the presence of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)

Prevensión

Sexual abstinence is the only absolutely safe method to avoid gonorrhea, but not practical or reasonable for many people. Safer sex behaviors can reduce risk. Sexual intercourse with one person free of any STD is currently the most acceptable preventive measure.

The use of condoms for both sexes significantly decreased the likelihood of contracting an STD if used properly: the condom must be placed from the beginning to the end of sexual intercourse and should be used where sexual activity is practiced with a partner in which is suspected of an STD.

The treatment of the two components of the couple is essential to prevent reinfection, and is one reason why this disease is notifiable. Gonorrhea is a relatively easy to cure and eradicate, as the causative germ is found only on human mucus.

Symptoms

*

Increased urinary frequency or urgency.
*

Urinary incontinence.
*

Urethral discharge.
*

Painful urination.
*

Redness and itching of the opening of the penis (urethra)
*

Swollen testicles.

Analysis and Test

An immediate preliminary diagnosis of gonorrhea can be done during the physical examination. A sample of urethral discharge and examined under the microscope (using a technique known as Gram stain. Germs Neisseria appear in red (Gram negative) and in areas grouped in pairs (diplococci), within the cells in the sample. The appearance of these Gram negative diplococci is sufficient for a presumptive diagnosis of gonorrhea.

The crops provide absolute information of infection. Neisseria organisms can grow on any mucous membrane. The choice of cultivation site is determined depending on the person, sexual preference, and sexual practices. Generally, crops are obtained from the urethra, anus, or throat. Laboratories can provide a preliminary diagnosis often within 24 hours and confirmed within 72

hours.

Treatment

There are two aspects to be covered in STDs, especially if it is as contagious as gonorrhea. The first is to cure the affected person. The second is to locate all sexual contacts to try to prevent further spread of the disease.

During the Vietnam War found that gonorrhea is resistant to penicillin and tetracycline. This resistance has increased in recent years. Therefore we have designed new treatment guidelines for several types of antibiotics last generation, more powerful:

*

Ceftriaxone, 125 mg intramuscularly, once.
*

Cefixime, 400 mg oral, once.
*

Ciprofloxacin, 500 mg oral, once.
*

Ofloxacin, 400 mg oral, once.
*

Spectinomycin, 2 g intramuscularly, once.
*

Cefuroxime Axotal, 1 g orally once.
*

Cefpodoxime proxetil 200 mg orally, once.
*

Enoxacin, 400 mg oral, once.
*

Erythromycin 500 mg orally four times a day for a week.

It is important to follow-up visit at 7 days after treatment to new crops and to confirm the cure of the infection.

prognosis

When gonorrhea is treated immediately from the start, the result is good: there is no permanent scars on the urethra and spread of infection to other parts of the body.

complications

Untreated gonorrhea may spread to other parts of the body, causing various complications:

*

Periurethral abscess.
*

Gonococcal arthritis.
*

Gonococcal pharyngitis.
*

Gonococcal conjunctivitis.
*

Infection or inflammation of the male reproductive system:

*

Epididymitis
*

Prostatitis.
*

Seminal vesiculitis.
*

Coperitis.

when you see a doctor

If you have symptoms of gonorrhea should contact your doctor immediately.

Inform the health authorities allows precise statistics on the number of cases, and treat other infected contacts who may transmit the disease.

If you engage in risky sexual practices (multiple partners, unknown partners, couples at high risk, ...), etc. should be periodically examined to detect the possible presence of asymptomatic disease.

Gonorrhea in women

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (also known as gonorrhea) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae (or gonococcus).

Gonorrhea is one of the most common bacterial diseases, and transmission usually occurs during sexual intercourse, both vaginal and anal or oral sex. Gonorrhea is a highly contagious disease, and all countries require disclosure to health authorities.

The incidence is 1 in 687 inhabitants per year.

Although gonorrhea is found in all geographical areas and social classes, no uniform distribution because the population has a greater impact in:

*

Risk factors also include having a partner with a past history of any STD, and practice unprotected sex (sex without a condom).

In adolescents and children, transmission can occur through nonsexual contact, but is rare. Among boys the risk of acquiring gonorrhea vaginal after an exchange with an infected woman is about 20% (1 chance in 5). In women the risk of acquiring gonorrhea from a male infected is higher.

The causative germ can infect the throat, causing intense pain (gonococcal pharyngitis), the vagina, causing vaginal irritation with drainage (vaginitis). Can also infect the anus and rectum, producing a condition called proctitis. In addition, the germ can spread to other parts of the female reproductive system, through the cervix and uterus to the fallopian tubes (the tubes between the ovaries and uterus)

In tubal infection called PID (pelvic inflammatory disease), which occurs between 10 and 15% of women with untreated gonorrhea. If the disease spreads beyond the fallopian tubes into the peritoneum, there is a generalized infection in the abdomen (peritonitis). The bacteria can also spread through the bloodstream, causing a gonococcemia and finally (more in young women) settling in the joints (gonococcal arthritis).

In rare cases of gonorrhea is transmitted by nonsexual. An infected woman can transmit the infection to her baby during childbirth, causing ophthalmia neonatorum (gonococcal conjunctivitis). Girls can acquire the disease through close contact with a contaminated object (like a wet towel), then developed a severe infection called vulvovaginitis.

Unfortunately, 50% of women with gonorrhea have no symptoms. They can be, well, totally unaware of their disease and not treated, which increases the risk of contagion.

The average incubation period of gonorrhea is between 2 and 5 days after sexual contact with an infected partner.

The most common initial symptom is a vaginal discharge and increased urinary frequency and urinary discomfort (dysuria). The germ spread to the fallopian tubes and abdomen may cause pain in the lower abdomen, shrinkage, fever and generalized symptoms of bacterial infection.

Finally, gonorrhea can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes and permanent sterility (inability to get pregnant). This scar formed around the uterus and tubes may cause pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)) and chronic pelvic pain.

Gonorrhea is often associated with other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Almost half of women with gonorrhea are also infected with chlamydia, another very common bacteria that can cause infertility. Women with gonorrhea should request testing of other STDs, including HIV

When you see a doctor

If you have symptoms of gonorrhea should contact your doctor immediately.

If you engage in risky sexual practices (multiple partners, unknown partners, couples at high risk, ...), etc. should be periodically examined to detect the possible presence of asymptomatic disease.



Gonorrhea is a very common STD and is very easy to detect in humans as it produces a purulent discharge from the urethra quite painful urination. However in women, is much more difficult to detect because it usually does not give themselves the trouble and not very specific and may mimic other genital infections (there is a purulent discharge from the vagina).

The infected woman, who no symptoms and has a promiscuous sex life is very dangerous since it will infect all the man who has sex with her.

If you have her go immediately to a doctor who will indicate appropriate treatment. On no account must automedicarte, using either an antibiotic.

In addition you must tell the doctor with whom you had sexual intercourse, because these people you have infected or infected thou hast. They must also be addressed.

Do not feel fear or shame. You have to trust the health professionals who respect your privacy.

What happens if gonorrhea is not treated? Undoubtedly will infect others.

When not fighting the bacteria, it will infect and destroy the internal genital organs of women, such as the uterus and fallopian tubes, causing a disease called pelviperonitis, very similar to appendicitis, requiring hospitalization and is difficult diagnosis and treatment.

It is a cause of infertility for many women, ie they have difficulty or can not conceive in the future.



Venereal Diseases.

If you suspect an STD, you should immediately consult a doctor. If the diagnosis is confirmed, it is important to share this information with the sexual partner. In all cases of STDs, it is recommended to abstain from sex until complete elimination of infection.

Produced by the herpes simplex virus, usually type 2. Symptoms appear 2 to 7 days after exposure. Itching or burning is followed by vesiculation and ulceration. These appear in the vagina or on the lips of the vulva, buttocks and anus. In men, they do so on the penis, scrotum, buttocks, anus and thighs. The virus remains dormant in infected areas and periodically reactivates, producing symptoms.

Syphilis.



Syphilis as well as other sexually transmitted diseases, but is spread by sexual contact with an infected person. You can easily find out if after several days of having a sexual relationship appears in the genitals (penis, foreskin, sulcus balanopreputial in man or minor labia, vulva in women), a hard base painless ulcer accompanied by swollen glands in the groin. If this happens, quickly go to a doctor to make you a treatment that is one hundred percent effective: if you do not disappear the ulcer and the infection will spread throughout the body damaging it irreversibly. The painless ulcer that appears on the genitals disappear spontaneously, giving the false sense of healing. But not, as the disease spreads silently through the body, appearing several months after a series of spots on the skin and swollen glands in the armpit, neck and groin. This condition is called secondary syphilis.


If you have sexual contact at this stage, inevitably rub off to your partner. Subsequently, over the years, the disease begins to destroy major organs such as heart, brain and spinal cord occur in heart failure, dementia, paralysis and death. This state is known as tertiary syphilis. Currently it is very difficult to reach these levels, since treatment of syphilis is early and very good.  Venereal diseases are very common. Over 13 million new cases are diagnosed each year. Roughly between the ages of 15 and 55 will contract a venereal disease. Of the more than 20 STDs, the information below focuses on some of the most common, chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea and genital herpes, and in the most serious, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Infectious diseases that have as their common characteristic, transmitted through sexual contact. Here we present a number of diseases among these diseases are: Gonorrhea (Gonorrhea or Clap) Syphilis, Genital herpes, genital Herpes Venereal Warts Vaginitis these diseases are relatively common worldwide.

Speaking of venereal disease or sexually transmitted refers to those infectious processes whose transmission is sexual contact.

How do you get STDs?

As the name implies, venereal diseases can be and usually are transmitted through sexual intercourse [sex], whether vaginal, oral or anal sex. In some cases in which a venereal disease has infected the throat or mouth, it is possible that the disease could spread to another person through a deep kiss in which saliva is exchanged.  Certain sexually transmitted diseases, including syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and the virus that causes AIDS, can be carried in the blood, therefore no risk in regard to handling contaminated needles and syringes. Various tests are performed on donated blood to minimize the risk of patients receiving blood transfusions. Some STDs can be transmitted from an infected mother to her child in the uterus (womb), during delivery and through breast milk.

How can STDs be prevented?

A person can take several steps to avoid contracting or transmitting a venereal disease venereal disease to another person. Here are some important facts to know:

*

A monogamous sexual relationship between two uninfected people is the best way to avoid contracting an STD.
*

Newborn babies can get some STDs from an infected mother, including AIDS, gonorrhea, syphilis, genital herpes and chlamydia.
*

When performing sexual activity, correct and consistent use of a new latex condom with every sexual act is a highly effective method for preventing transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) the virus that causes AIDS and it reduces the risk of getting other STDs, including gonorrhea, syphilis, genital herpes and chlamydia.

The person diagnosed with a venereal disease must notify all sexual partners he or she may have inadvertently infected, and insist that the person or people to seek professional medical attention.

Once a person has been cured of a venereal disease, is not immune to this venereal disease-in other words, it is possible to be reinfected.

Regular checkups by a family physician or a gynecologist can help detect and diagnose sexually transmitted diseases.

How are STDs diagnosed?

When a doctor suspects a patient may have contracted a sexually transmitted disease, the diagnosis is made through blood testing or analysis of fluid cultures or tissue taken from the site of infection.

When there is reason to suspect gonorrhea, syphilis or chlamydia, or exposure to any of these diseases, doctors typically conduct tests for the detection of the three. You can have more of a venereal disease at a time.

Can STDs be cured?

If treatment begins early, most STDs can be cured with little or no serious or permanent effect on health.

Two exceptions are herpes simplex and AIDS. Herpes simplex can not be cured but can be treated and managed through medication and changes in lifestyle.

AIDS, venereal disease more serious than the world faces today, as it is ultimately fatal, described below (and if you want more detail under the heading AIDS.)

The AIDS-related illnesses such as pneumonia, are treated with specific drugs for those diseases.

AIDS

AIDS is preventable and easily avoided, however, we are witnessing a global epidemic of the disease as severe.

If recent estimates are correct, the number of people infected with the virus that causes AIDS may increase tenfold over the next eight years from 13 million to 130 million men, women and children worldwide.

Unfortunately, many of these people may die from the disease. Ten years ago, AIDS was primarily a disease contracted by homosexual men. This is no longer the case.

Signs and symptoms of HIV infection and AIDS

After contracting HIV, a person can continue to enjoy good health for a year or two years to 10 years. Over time, however, the virus begins to weaken the body's immune system and, therefore, its ability to fight disease.

People infected with HIV can present a variety of symptoms, including: loss of appetite, weight loss, fever, night sweats, skin rashes, diarrhea, fatigue, lack of resistance to infection or swollen lymph nodes .

Signs that a person infected with HIV has contracted AIDS appear after the patient's immune system is severely weakened, and then diseases such as Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, meningitis or cancer can occur.

CHLAMYDIA

Chlamydia infections caused by different strains of the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis, if treated early with antibiotics, the disease can be cured. If left untreated, chlamydia can spread to the reproductive organs, leading to infertility in women and possibly in men.

Signs and symptoms

Chlamydia can cause a variety of signs and symptoms, according to stage of disease. In women, these signs and symptoms may include thin vaginal discharge, painful urination, vaginal bleeding between periods or after intercourse and lower abdominal pain.

In men, these signs and symptoms may include a burning sensation during urination, the feeling of having to urinate frequently and a pus discharge from the penis. Men are more likely to notice early chlamydia. Signs and symptoms of chlamydia usually start about 21 days after contracting the disease.

SYPHILIS

Syphilis is a complex disease, but generally curable caused by a spirochete called Treponema pallidum. If untreated, syphilis will progress through several different stages. Some of the signs and symptoms of syphilis go away on their own, without treatment, this does not imply that the disease disappeared. Syphilis can be cured only by medication, so it is very important to see a doctor, but you seem to be feeling better.

Signs and symptoms primary cover


About ten days to six weeks after exposure to the spirochete, a wound or red sore called a chancre appears where the disease was introduced to the body. The most common site is the genitals, but may be affected other body areas such as language. May enlarge the lymph nodes near the side of infections (in the groin or neck, for example).

Secondary Stage


Two to 12 weeks after the chancre disappears, a rash [skin] of cotrosos and small red bumps that do not cause itching appears, usually on the palms and the region of the soles of the feet. Pink or gray lesions can appear on the mucous membranes of the mouth, vulva and penis. Both the rash and the lesions are highly contagious. The symptoms of flu, including fever, aches, headache, nausea and weight loss may also be present. Without treatment, these signs and symptoms disappear, but the patient is not cured.

Latent stage


Over time, disappear rashes and other signs and symptoms. Although infection is still present, the person is no longer contagious. Almost two thirds of people with untreated syphilis remain in this latent phase, lasting 20 years or more, until his death.

Final Stage


About one third of untreated patients with syphilis reached that stage. The disease erupts again without warning. It can attack any organ, causing paralysis, blindness, insanity and death.

GONORRHEA

Gonorrhea is a curable disease caused by a bacterium, Neisseria gonococcus. If not treated with antibiotics, gonorrhea can become chronic, lead to a variety of serious health complications, including permanent infertility in both men and women.

Signs and symptoms


The signs and symptoms of gonorrhea usually appear two weeks after exposure. The early gonorrhea often goes undetected in women. The most common site of infection in women is the cervix (the canal into the uterus). An infected woman may notice a yellow or white vaginal discharge.

In men, the most common site of infection is the urethra (the tube that carries urine and semen through the penis). An infected man may have pain during urination, more frequent need to urinate and a yellow or white discharge from the penis. If infected the urethra of a woman, she may also experience uncomfortable and more frequent urination and a pus discharge from the urethra.

If you are infected anus, men and women may develop inflammation of the anus, painful bowel movements and anal discharge pus appears. If infected throat will be sore.

GENITAL HERPES

Genital herpes is caused by a virus known as HSV-2. The virus is incurable and not responding to antibiotics. You can control the disease, however, with medical assistance. The drug acyclovir [acyclovir] can be prescribed to ease discomfort and reduce the length of the first and recurrent episodes of genital herpes.

Herpes is a disease that remains hidden for long periods, reappearing sporadically. In people with frequent episodes of genital herpes (six or more episodes per year), acyclovir is sometimes prescribed to help prevent breakouts. Herpetic eruptions are generally unpredictable, but in some patients appear to be triggered by factors such as stress, illness or injury.

Signs and symptoms


Within two to 20 days of exposure, small red bumps appear in the area of infection [breakout area]. In a few days are filled with clear liquid blisters, which are usually extremely painful and can cause itching. The flu-like symptoms, including fatigue, headaches and muscle pains may precede the outbreak of the bulb. When the blisters burst, forming ulcers that heal over time when new skin is formed. When wounds are completely healed, it is believed that the virus is not contagious.

In women, herpes blisters are most common in the area inside or outside of the vagina, buttocks or anus. In men, commonly found on the penis, scrotum, buttocks or anus. Herpes can also be present in the cervix of a woman or a man's urethra, where an injury would not be visible.

Conclusion

We see that over 12 million people will get a sexually transmitted disease this year, this statistic leads us to reflect.

Most do not they will realize. "One of the worst problems with STDs is that many no symptoms," "As the name implies, sexually transmitted diseases are contracted during sexual intercourse, whether vaginal, oral or anal sex.

People at increased risk of contracting one of the more than 20 venereal diseases are those with multiple lovers or not using condoms to protect themselves.

Venereal diseases are caused by bacteria or viruses. Sexually transmitted diseases caused by bacteria include chlamydia, syphilis and gonorrhea.

These can be treated and cured with antibiotics. Those caused by viruses include HIV (the virus that causes AIDS), genital herpes and genital warts.

Virus infections have no cure.

"In the case of bacterial STDs, both partners must be checked and treated before returning to have intimate relations."

Sexually transmitted diseases mainly affect young people. Nearly 2 / 3 of these diseases occur in women under 25 years.

"Of course, the best way to avoid contracting an STD is to not have sex."

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES

The famous Henry VIII, King of England, founded the Anglican Church to marry and divorce as often as you want. However, the powerful king who had more wives and lovers than any ruler of his time could not do anything to not get syphilis and die prematurely from this disease.  If it is necessary that sexuality is a fundamental part of human nature, the practice of this irresponsible and thoughtless as you can bring severe health consequences and sometimes even death.

What is a sexually transmitted disease? Sexually transmitted diseases are often called venereal diseases, the name given to them in reference to Venus, goddess of love. Are those that are acquired by sexual contact after the common cold, are the most contagious.
Preventive mechanisms Most of us, especially when we are young, we care for our body until something is malfunctioning. Unfortunately, with sexually transmitted diseases can not wait for it to present a problem, since it could be fatal such as AIDS.

You may think that this is never going to happen, but if you have practiced or have sex are in imminent danger of becoming infected.

Having a "safe sex" means to prevent problems before they arise.

Mechanisms for preventing sexually transmitted diseases:

*

Always use a condom during sexual intercourse. If your sex partner refuses to do so, leave for another time, recalls that one time is enough to infect you.
*

Do not have sex with several people. Having them does not mean that you are very popular or you're getting a lot of experience, what you're doing is increasing the chances of infection, because by having sex with someone you're also taking with other people with whom he or she has had sex.
*

You-fulfillment medical examinations at least twice a year or every time you have some strange symptoms on your genitals, especially if you've had sexual contact and following him these symptoms arise.
*

Women, once started their sexual life, should see a gynecologist once a year, to conduct a review were known as Pap smear, which is a "smear" of cells of the cervix, through which can diagnose conditions such as infections by fungi, bacteria or cancer.
*

Avoid sex with people who have "fires or thrush" in the mouth or genitals, milky penis or vagina, burning in the penis or vagina while urinating, or an unpleasant odor emanating from her genitals .

Health consequences of sexually transmitted diseases (AIDS, syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes)

*

Gonorrhea is transmitted by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrohoeae; infection occurs by direct sexual contact, although there are cases of indirect transmission with towels or contaminated toilet seats. Between 2 and 31 days after infection, bacteria produce an exotoxin that causes redness and swelling of the infected site. In humans, infection usually starts in the urethra. The infection can spread to the prostate, seminal vesicles and epididymis. When the epididymis becomes infected, can cause infertility. In women, no symptoms are apparent, so infection can spread to the fallopian tubes, causing the closure of the same and, consequently, infertility. In severe cases extends to the heart valves, meninges and joints. The treatment involves giving antibiotics such as penicillin and tetracycline, but unfortunately in the last decade, reported the existence of a "strain" resistant to both drugs.

*

Syphilis. It is less common than gonorrhea, but much more serious. Transmitted by the bacterium Treponema pallidum, is spread through direct sexual contact, is an infectious disease whose first phase is a widespread invasion of the bacteria through the bloodstream and then infect various organs or tissues, slowly. If not treated properly can result in death.

The woman with syphilis transmitted to the fetus during pregnancy. Fetal infection usually occurs after the fifth month of pregnancy and comes to cause spontaneous abortion or premature labor. It also runs the risk that the product is born dead or dying. Among children of mothers silifiticas live births, one in five suffers from congenital syphilis and later may become blind, deaf, paralyzed or have mental or nervous, sometimes die young.

*

Genital herpes. It is a venereal disease becoming more widespread than is caused by herpes simplex virus type II (HSV-2) (do not confuse this with the herpes virus simplex type I, which causes cold sores fire calls)

Symptoms usually appear within one week of infection. The first infections often are light, are more aggressive when tiny painful blisters appear in the genital structures. It also occurs in some people fever, swollen lymph nodes and other symptoms similar to influenza, in general, ulcers heal within a few days or weeks. In some people, the disease goes away permanently, but in others is repeated from time to time over many years. Genital herpes is not curable, although some drugs such as acyclovir decreases the duration and severity of infection, also oral forms of the product used to prevent relapses. Since it has been shown that there is a relationship between genital herpes and cervical cancer, women affected by herpes should perform a Pap smear every year.

*

AIDS. It is a disease transmitted by a virus. It is considered a health problem that the virus that causes disease does not manifest immediately, but after a lag of five years. It attacks the immune system, destroying the body's defense mechanisms, so getting it is exposed to all types of infections. During latency, the infected person is a carrier of the virus capable of infecting others.

The AIDS virus, called human immunodeficiency, is very fragile and can not survive outside the body cells. Located in the infected individual's bodily fluids (blood, semen and vaginal fluids). It is transmitted from one individual to another when the body fluid of an infected person comes into contact with a healthy person, through sexual intercourse, blood transfusions or syringes. It is not transmitted through air or by shaking hands with an infected person is spread not in the seats of the toilets, not to kiss an AIDS patient and not by the bite of a mosquito that has previously bitten a victim AIDS. The main sources of infection is sex. Both the semen and the vaginal sick individuals have very high levels of HIV.

Because AIDS is a disease of viral type, there is currently adequate medical treatment for cure or a vaccine for its prevention, although there are some treatments that improve the quality of life of patients.

There are groups called "high risk" such as homosexuals, drug addicts and prostitutes, because in them is more often the disease is present.
