SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES

Sexually transmitted diseases are usually spread by sexual contact. They have early signs

Some STDs are:


1. AIDS
2. Syphilis
3. Gonorrhea
4. Sores on the genitals.
Let's look at them one after the other.

AIDS(Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome).

AIDS is a very dangerous disease that is spread from one person to another by the help of a virus. It reduces the body's ability to fight disease. Somebody with AIDS can get sick easily because the ability of the body to fight diseases is no longer there. AIDS are spread when the blood, vaginal fluid or sperm of someone with the virus enters the body of another person.

AIDS can  be spread through:

Blood transfusion
Having sex with someone who has the AIDS virus
Using the same needles or syringe without sterilizing it
An infected mother can pass it to her unborn child

Symptoms of AIDS

Severe fever
Gradual loss of weight
Skin Rashes
Tuberculosis
Diarrhea
Constant feeling of tiredness
A severe cough


Treatment

AIDS as we speak, have no cure. People who are diagnosed with AIDS#, however, should not necessarily be made to sleep alone due to fear of transfer of the virus.  Contact with infected person skin or breath cannot transfer the infection

Ways to prevent AIDS

AIDS can be prevented by:

Having protected sex(the use of condoms)
Avoid having sex with prostitutes
Avoid sharing of syringe or needles except it is sterilized
Not accepting transfusion of blood when it hasn't been tested
Having sex with just one partner. If you have more than one sexual partner, use condoms, though it is not 100% safe.

SYPHILIS
This is a common and dangerous disease spread from one person to another through sexual contact.



Symptoms of Syphilis

One symptom is that you find the person having sore which may look like blister, pimple or an open sore. This sore usually appears in the genital area of the man or the woman and it is full of germs. This sore appears two to five weeks after sexual contact with a person that has the disease. The sore is also usually painless.
The sore can last a few days and goes away without any treatment but the disease continues spreading throughout the body
The person may develop swollen joints, milf fever or mouth sores.
The infected person may develop ring-shaped welts, a painful rash or pimples all over the body or an itchy rash on the feet or hands. All these signs may go away by themselves but it doesn't mean that the person is well and without adequate treatment, syphilis can move to any part of the body to cause paralysis, heart disease, insanity, and other sicknesses

You must be careful with your sexual partner. Anyone who has more than one sexual partner has a higher tendency of having these diseases. Prostitutes and sexual workers stand a high risk. It is advised to maintain a sexual partner to reduce the risk of having these diseases.
Condoms could help, but they are not 100% reliable
