Sexually Transmitted Infections

A sexually transmitted disease (STD), also known as a sexually transmitted infection, is an illness that is primarily passed on through sexual contact 윈도우10 rs4 iso. The term sexually transmitted infection (STI) is a more accurate term because a person can be infected, and infect others, without showing any symptoms of disease Download the rainy sound.

STI’s can happen at any age, including among the elderly. All it takes is sexual intimacy with one infected partner to contract a disease. Careless sex with different partners is probably the fastest way to acquire many serious infections Download graphics software.

While STI’s are largely transmitted through bodily fluids including vaginal fluids, semen and saliva, some such as Herpes Simplex and Human Papillomavirus (HPV), can be transmitted by direct skin contact alone 넷버스 1.7 다운로드.

Some germs, such as HIV, can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy or through breast milk 어도비 에어.

Any infection such as Epstein Barr Virus, a chronic fatigue virus, can be passed on through simple physical contact between people. However, the infections primarily passed on through sexual relations that are of the greatest concern include: Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Hepatitis B Virus, Herpes Simplex Virus (can be passed on with or without visible blisters), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Human Papillomavirus (HPV), Syphilis, and Trichomoniasis 인크레더블 2 무료.

Suggestions to reduce STI’s:

  • Never reuse injection or tattoo needles.
  • Never come in contact with other people’s blood without immediate cleanup Pandora.
  • Cover up any cuts or abrasions of your own and get those around you to do the same.
  • Avoid sexual contact when any blood is involved Download eclipse kepler.
  • At the very least, avoid any sexual contact without using condoms. Condoms only reduce the danger when used properly, and only to and from the area that they cover 리눅스 tar.gz 다운로드.
  • Avoid condoms made of substances other than latex or polyurethane, as they do not protect against HIV. Some germs are small enough to pass through the pores in natural skin condoms vpn client 다운로드.
  • Avoid the use of oil-based lubricants or any form of oil with latex condoms, as oil can eat holes into the condoms.
  • To prevent a lifetime of disease, both potential sexual partners must get tested and proven negative for STI’s before any intimate contact. If after those tests are run, one of the partners has intimate contact with someone else, these tests must be rerun. Many infections are not detectable immediately after exposure to the germs, so consult your lab about the time that must elapse for the tests to be accurate.
  • Consider whether the pleasure of careless physical contact is worth the potential of a lifetime of serious infection.
  • Consider whether you really want to have a relationship with a person who would risk you or themselves.
