STDs

Infectious Disease Unit

STD Clinical Care

Early detection and specialized treatment for bacterial and viral infections. Protecting reproductive health through advanced diagnostics and patient confidentiality.

STD Pathogen Diagram
Fig 9.1: Viral & Bacterial Pathogens Microbiological Reference

HIV / AIDS

HIV attacks the body’s CD4 (T cells), weakening the immune system. Without treatment, opportunistic infections or cancers take advantage of the weak system, signaling the progression to AIDS.

Variant: HIV-1
Variant: HIV-2

Chlamydia

Caused by C. trachomatis. Can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), tubal factor infertility, and fatal ectopic pregnancies.

Gonorrhea

A highly contagious infection of the mucous membranes. Often asymptomatic but can cause serious complications in the urethra or cervix.

Syphilis

"The Great Imitator"

Painless sores can be confused for harmless bumps. If left untreated, the second-stage non-itchy rash appears on palms and soles. Ocular Syphilis can lead to permanent blindness.

01

Genital Herpes

Characterized by a prodromal stage of burning or tingling before blisters form. Contagious even without visible sores.

02

HPV (Human Papillomavirus)

A DNA virus infecting keratinocytes. Types 6 and 11 cause genital warts, while others may cause abnormal cervical growths.

Bacterial Vaginosis

Characterized by "clue cells" and a fishy odor. Caused by an overgrowth of normal bacteria and fewer lactobacilli. Risk includes premature labor.

Trichomoniasis

Caused by T. vaginalis. Symptoms include frothy greenish-yellow discharge and painful urination. Men are often asymptomatic carriers.

Viral Hepatitis

Inflammatory liver disease (A through H). Transmitted sexually and through blood. All variants except Type A have chronic forms.

Safety
& Prevention

Unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sex significantly increases risk. Responsibility and protection are the only barriers to infection.

Risk Reducers

  • ✓ Consistent Condom Usage
  • ✓ Mutually Monogamous Relationships
  • ✓ Regular Clinical Screening
  • ✓ Early Prodromal Detection

Clinical Warning

Some STDs cause permanent damage before symptoms ever appear. If you have multiple sexual partners or a history of previous infections, seek immediate testing.
