Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD’s) refer to many diseases and symptoms that are transmitted through the exchange of bodily fluids, such as: semen, vaginal fluid and blood. A few STD’s, such as Herpes and Human Papillomavirus (HPV), can be received by kissing and caressing, or direct contact with the infected areas. Most STD’s can be treated; however, if they are not treated or treated incorrectly they might have serious, long-term consequences. These consequences include sterility, chronic infection, scarring of a woman’s fallopian tubes, ectopic (tubal) pregnancy, cancer, and even death. STD’s can affect anyone. Age, gender, ethnic background, size, etc. does not matter. STD’s usually affect one in four sexually active people at some time. Nearly 65% of all those people are under the age of 25. The most common STD’s on college campuses now are chlamydia, genital herpes, and genital warts.
