Takeaways
- 😷 STDs are infectious diseases primarily spread through sexual contact but can also be transmitted in other ways.
- 🌐 Over 110 million people in the US and an estimated 400 million worldwide are living with STDs.
- 📈 In the United States, approximately 19 million new infections occur annually, with young people aged 15 to 24 accounting for nearly half of these new cases.
- 👩❤️👨 Prevention methods include abstinence, monogamy, correct condom use, and regular pelvic exams.
- 📊 Common STDs include HSV-1 (oral herpes), HSV-2 (genital herpes), HPV, HIV, hepatitis A, B, C, chlamydia, thrush, syphilis, and gonorrhea.
- 💉 There is no cure for HSV, but symptoms can manifest as blisters or sores on or around the mouth, genitals, or rectum.
- 🛡 HPV vaccines are recommended for individuals under the age of 26 who have not yet contracted the virus, given in a series of three shots over six months.
- 😷 HIV attacks the immune system and can lead to AIDS if not treated; early symptoms may appear within weeks of infection but can disappear and reappear years later.
- 🟡 Hepatitis B and C are viral infections that affect the liver, with symptoms ranging from jaundice to fatigue and abdominal pain, or may be asymptomatic.
- 🤔 Chlamydia often goes unnoticed due to a lack of symptoms in many cases, but can cause abnormal discharge and pain during urination or sexual activity.
- 🦠 Thrush is a fungal infection causing creamy white lesions in the mouth and difficulty swallowing, and can be spread through kissing.
