Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDS)
They encompass a wide range of bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV/AIDS, herpes, and more. Symptoms can vary, from mild or asymptomatic to severe, and can lead to long-term health complications if left untreated. Preventative measures such as condom use, regular testing, and vaccination where applicable are essential. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial to manage and prevent the spread of STDs, promoting sexual health and overall well-being. Open communication and safe sexual practices are key in reducing the risk of infection.
