The Ugly Truth About Sexually Transmitted Infections...staphylococcus etc by DrEldorado(m): 11:41am On Dec 22, 2014 |
"Sexual disease". This topic seems to be very fragile but really considered a gray area, as almost 68 percent of Nigerians suffer from either one sexually transmitted disease or the other.which is never so in most advanced countries like India, Malaysia and most asian countries. Over here in India, I discovered this difference based on research. Sexually transmitted diseases (STD), also referred to as sexually transmitted infections (STI) and venereal diseases (VD), are infections that are commonly spread by sex, especially vaginal intercourse, anal sex and MouthAction. Most STDs initially do not cause symptoms.[1] This results in a greater risk of passing the disease on to others.[2] Symptoms and signs of disease may include: vaginal discharge, penile discharge, ulcers on or around the genitals, and pelvic pain. STDs acquired before or during birth may result in poor outcomes for the baby. Some STIs may cause problems with the ability to get pregnant.[1] More than 30 different bacteria, viruses, and parasites can cause STDs.[1] Bacterial STDs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis among others. Viral STDs include genital herpes, HIV/AIDS, and genital warts among others. Parasitic STDs include trichomoniasis among others. While usually spread by sex, some STDs can also be spread by non-sexual contact with contaminated blood and tissues, breastfeeding, or during childbirth.[1] STD diagnostic tests are easily available in the developed world, but this is often not the case in the developing world.[1] The most effective way of preventing STDs is by not having sex.[3] Some vaccinations may also decrease the risk of certain infections including hepatitis B and some types of HPV.[3] Safer sex practices such as use of condoms, having a smaller number of sexual partners, and being in a relationship where each person only has sex with the other also decreases the risk.[1][3] Circumcision in males may be effective to prevent some infections.[1] Most STIs are treatable or curable.[1] Of the most common infections, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomoniasis are curable, while herpes, hepatitis B, HIV/AIDS, and HPV are treatable but not curable.[1] Resistance to certain antibiotics is developing among some organisms such as gonorrhoea.[4] In 2008, it was estimated that 500 million people were infected with either syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia or trichomoniasis.[1] At least an additional 530 million people have genital herpes and 290 million women have human papillomavirus.[1] In the United States there were 19 million new cases of sexually transmitted infections in 2010.[5] Historical documentation of STIs date back to at least the Ebers papyrus around 1550 BC and the Old Testament.[6] There is often shame and stigma associated with these infections.[1] The term sexually transmitted infection is generally preferred over the terms sexually transmitted disease and venereal disease, as it includes those who do not have symptomatic disease.[7] So many herbal remedies have been introduced by really i must admit...there are several Nutrition Requirements which are not revealed to this Sufferers,...Doctors end up administering one drug or the other without giving the Nitty-gritty of the aspect. Unlike the Indian Herbal Remedies. which are made purely from natural plants and Ayurveda Herbal Remedies. Http://www.drpotentherbs.info Http://www.creativeideasconcept.org |
