Some Thoughts About the Role of Sexually Transmitted Diseases in Everyday Life

Sexually transmitted diseases and infections (STDIs)have for centuries been a big concern all around the world. Since they were recognized, many groups have thought how to provide care for those affected with STDIs. They are most prevalent among teenagers and young adults. Nearly two-thirds of all STDIs occur in people younger than 25 years. The incidence of STDIs is rising. STDIs exist in three different forms, viral, bacterial, and parasitic. Screening is recommended in all young people who may have been sexually abused or who have been found to have an STDI. Risk prevention must not be a singular occasion but continuous task. Preventive and curative medical measures must be combined with social and psychological assistance. The prevention and counseling methods together with effective public education are recommended to decrease the spread of STDIs.
