The transmission of Gonorrhea is strictly direct contact, most commonly transmitted through sexual contact with an infected person. Transmission of this contagious sexual disease also includes having direct contact with infected bodily fluids. For example, a mother could pass on the infection to her newborn during childbirth. Gonorrhea is an infection of the reproductive system in either women or men. The invading pathogen enters the body through the spaces
You can only get STDs, like herpes, if your partner is having an outbreak. False. Herpes does not always have symptoms and outbreaks are not always visible. That does not mean you cannot contract the disease. STDs are only spread from bodily fluid like semen, not just skin to skin contact. False. Bodily fluids can spread some STDs herpes and syphilis can be spread by skin to skin contact. You cannot get an STD from oral sex. False. Oral sex is sexual contact and STDs can be contracted from any type of sexual contact. All STDs are curable. False. Sexually transmitted diseases caused by bacteria can be treated with antibiotics but diseases caused by viral infections are incurable. These diseases include AIDS/HIV, herpes, and human papillomavirus. You cannot get an STD if you only have sex once. False. Sex is sex, first time or not. Chlamydia Chlamydia is a bacterial infection passed through sexual contact. It is the most commonly spread STD in America affecting about 3 million men and women, most often under 25. Planned Parenthood reports that it is three times more common than gonorrhea and 50 times more common than syphilis. Chlamydia can affect the penis, vagina, cervix, urethra, eye, or throat.75% of women and 50% of men have no Chlamydia symptoms. Women may experience abdominal pain, painful intercourse, a yellowish discharge with a foul
The most common sexually transmitted infection is Chlamydia. About three million people are infected yearly (Shoquist & Stafford, 2004). It is especially common among teens and young adults. As is the case with many sexually transmitted infections, Chlamydia often has no symptoms and over half of the people infected have no idea they have anything to worry about (Shoquist & Stafford, 2004). Chlamydia can infect the genitals, eyes, and throat (Friedman & Skancke, 2009). Symptoms, when present, include painful or burning urination, discolored discharge, and uncomfortable swelling (Sutton, 2006). If Chlamydia is left untreated, it can lead to the inability to produce offspring in both males and females (Shoquist & Stafford, 2004).
In this service announcement we will learn about the health risks of chlamydia. Chlamydia is an STD caused by sexual interaction. Sexual interaction includes anal, vaginal, and oral. You get chlamydia in the eyes, vagina, penis, and the lips. This health risk can affect your behavior by not being able to reproduce because nobody is going to want these STD. The dangers chlamydia has is getting infected and not telling your doctor to get a cure. You can reduce your chances of getting chlamydia by using a condom and/or being sexually absent. Chlamydia can cause serious health problems if it’s not treated at all.

Bacterial Vaginosis, Candidiasis, Chancroid, Granuloma Inguinale, Lymplhogranloma Venereum, Mucopurulent Cervicitis, Molluscum Contagiosu, Nongonococcal Urethritis, and Trichomiasis are more STDs that not as common and not generally discussed. Chlamydia is a bacterial STD and can be contracted through vaginal and anal sex. 75% of women and 25% of men are asymptomatic. The symptoms may include abnormal genital discharge, and burning during urination. Chlamydia can be cured with antibiotics, but the antibiotics can not undo the damage done prior to treatment. If left untreated in women, up to 30% will experience pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) which often causes ectopic pregnancy, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain. In men, causes epidiymitis, an inflammation of the testicles, which causes sterility. Infected individuals are also at a greater risk of contracting HIV. Gonorrhea is a bacterial STD that can be contracted through vaginal, anal, and/or oral sex. Though some cases may be asymptomatic, when symptoms do appear, they are often mild and usually appear within 2-10 days after exposure. The symptoms include discharge from the penis, vagina, or rectum and burning or itching during urination. Gonorrhea can also be treated and cured with antibiotics but they cannot undo the damage done prior to treatment. IF left untreated, gonorrhea can cause PID, eptopic pregnancy, infertility, and chronic pelvic
Christmas is the annual festival celebrating the birth of Jesus on the 25th December, at least that is what it began as initially. Since it has expanded into an international phenomenon for consumption, taking priority over our everyday practices of life (Michel De Certeau, 1980). Our time we spend divided between work and leisure in accordance to the codes and conventions of society shifts, Christmas derails these expectations. Yet surprisingly Christmas gains little attention in terms of social research, despite the fact that it can be explored diversely. The inquiry ‘What is Christmas?’ links to multiple aspects of social research. The aspects of Christmas can be subdivided into the following; religion, commercialism, gift-giving, social relationships, sensualism and mythology. This essay will analyse these fundamentals of Christmas through both psychological and sociological perspectives, as the theories among these two social sciences are best suited to the elements which make up Christmas itself.
Other vaginal infections such as bacterial Vaginosis; common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) like gonorrhea, Chlamydia and Trichomoniasis; Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections that cause genital warts and can lead to cervical cancer; Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)

Vulvovaginitis: If you develop an infection or excessive inflammation of the vagina or vulva tissues, you can be diagnosed with a common condition called vulvovaginitis. This condition has a number of causes, including poor hygiene, bacteria, viruses, yeasts and sexually transmitted diseases. Symptoms of vulvovaginitis can include vaginal itching and inflammation, abnormal vaginal discharge, urinary discomfort or unpleasant vaginal odor. Treatment of this condition typically involves the use of antifungal or antibiotic medications (oral or
Cultural diversity is defined as “the different combinations of cultural and subcultural minorities (e.g. ethnic, racial, national, religious, generational, marital status, socioeconomic, occupational, health status and preference in life partner orientations) coexisting in a given location” (Estes, 2014). The Mexican and Chinese cultures are two cultures from separate geographic continents that I will be analyzing in this paper. The Chinese culture has numerous different cultures. Hans Chinese will be the focus here.
A person can get some STDs, such as herpes or genital warts, through skin to skin contact with an infected area or sore. Another myth about the spread of STDs is that you can’t get it if you have oral or anal sex. It is also wrong because the viruses or bacteria that cause STDs can enter the body through tiny cuts or tears in the mouth and anus, as well as the genitals . STDs also spread easily because you can’t tell whether someone has an infection. In fact, some people with STDs don’t even know that they have them because infections often do not cause any symptoms. Medically, infections are only called diseases when they cause symptoms. These people are in danger of passing an infection on to their sex partners without even realizing it.
