STD - Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are infections that are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. They are usually spread during vaginal, oral or anal sex. But sometimes they can spread through other sexual contact involving the penis, vagina, mouth or anus. This is because some STDs, like herpes and HPV, are spread by skin-to-skin contact. Some STD can be passed to the fetus during pregnancy or during childbirth. Other ways that some STDs may be spread include during breastfeeding, through blood transfusions, or by sharing needles. Most STIs affect both men and women, but in many cases the health problems they cause can be more severe for women. If an STI is passed to a baby, it can cause serious health problems.

Antibiotics can treat STDs that are caused by bacteria or parasites.
