Genital herpes is the name for an STD caused by the two varieties of herpes simplex virus (HSV). Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) causes oral herpes, a disease of the lips and mouth often called either “cold sores” or “fever blisters.” It has started to infect people with genital herpes as well, especially sexually promiscuous youth. Herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) is still the usual cause of genital herpes. Transmittal via direct contact with the sores and secretions of an infected person is common to both types of herpes simplex virus.
Syphilis – Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR) Blood Test
A treatable disease, syphilis is spread through sexual contact such as vaginal intercourse. Though its symptoms are not easily detected because it shares symptoms with other diseases, it can lead to severe and even fatal damage to crucial body organs. However, this disease is treatable with proper medical aid in the form of a penicillin based treatment.
Hepatitis C Blood Test
Although hepatitis C generally shows no symptoms, it is a serious illness with the potential to lead to liver failure. Fortunately, the disease is treatable if detected early enough. It is believed that the disease is transferred via bodily fluids and that about 200 million people in the world are infected.
Chlamydia Test
Sexual contact such as oral, anal and vaginal sex can lead to a transmission of chlamydia, the most reported bacterial STD in the United States. It is an asymptomatic diseases, leaving detection up to standard STD tests. Having a higher number of sexual partners among those that are sexually active increases the risk of contracting the disease.
Gonorrhea Test
Gonorrhea is a bacteria which often grows undetected in the eyes, mouth, throat, anus, and especially the reproductive tract and urethra of its carriers. It has been estimated that as many as 10% of all men and 50% of all women who carry the disease do not know it, as it often presents no symptoms. If it is not treated, the host – regardless of gender – may experience a wide variety of very negative effects.
