An STD is a problem posted by on July 8, 2011

We hope to accomplish this by providing useful and up-to-date important STD list information. Since 1999 the number of annual cases of Chlamydia has more than doubled. This bacterium can infect the cervix in women and the urethra and rectum in both men and women. Among the symptoms there are: abnormal discharge from the penis or vagina, pain in the testicles, and burning with urinating.

PID and “silent” infection in the upper genital tract may cause permanent damage to the fallopian tubes, uterus, and surrounding tissues, which can lead to infertility. In general HSV-1 is acquired orally, causing cold sores and HSV-2 is acquired during sexual contact and affects the genital area. Not everyone infected with HPV will develop genital warts.
