Chlamydia 2. Gonorrhea 3. Syphilis 4. Herpes genital 5.Trichomoniasis 6.HPV - Human Papillomavirus 7.Genital Warts While they are all bad, I would say the worst one is # 1. This STD is called the SILENT KILLER. Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease that affects over 3 million Americans each year. Approximately three out of four cases of chlamydia occur in people under age 25. By the time women reach age 30, an overwhelming 50 percent of sexually active women are likely to have had chlamydia. Although chlamydia is a serious disease that is easily treated with antibiotics, it often has no or only mild symptoms. Women with undiagnosed chlamydia often suffer reproductive health consequences such as damage to the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. most of the time, there are no symptoms so a person can easily pass it on to their partner or partners without detection. fifty percent of infected women, and twenty-five percent of infected men, may not experience any symptoms , but some of the symptoms are: 1.abnormal discharge 2.pain during urination Others white proiddge Syphillis - if left untreated - rots your brain with little wormies. which ever other one can kill you. HIV/AIDS Chlamydia It can infect the penis, vagina, cervix, anus, urethra, eyes, or throat. In women, it usually infects the cervix and can spread to the urethra, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It can cause bladder infections and serious pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy, and sterility. In men, chlamydia infects the urethra and may spread to the testicles, causing epididymitis, which can cause sterility. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) PID is a progressive infection that harms a woman's reproductive system. PID occurs throughout the pelvic area, in the fallopian tubes, the uterus, the lining of the uterus, and in the ovaries. Especially if untreated, PID can lead to sterility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pain. The more episodes of PID a woman has, the greater are her chances of becoming infertile. PID is not always the result of a sexually transmitted infection 鈥?but in most cases it is. The sexually transmitted infections that most commonly cause PID are gonorrhea and chlamydia. More than one million U.S. women have an acute episode of PID every year. It is believed that millions of other cases go undiscovered. THose two would be aulful to get they are all pretty bad and most if left untreated can kill you. |
