STDs are as fierce as tigers. STDs can cause irreversible damage to the body and have a certain psychological impact. Therefore, many people become pale when talking about STDs. Chinese people are quite shy when it comes to the word sex, especially when it comes to sexually transmitted diseases. Many people are shy about speaking out. So in fact, everyone still knows relatively little about sexually transmitted diseases, especially the knowledge about the transmission of some sexually transmitted diseases, and there are even some misunderstandings.

Four misunderstandings about the spread of sexually transmitted diseases

1. Sexually transmitted diseases can only be transmitted through sex

Many people think that STDs are only transmitted through sexual contact, but in fact, although STDs are mainly transmitted through sexual contact, they can still be transmitted through other ways, such as through contact with secretions, which are more common in families. infection within. For example, genital warts are a sexually transmitted skin disease. In most cases, they are sexually transmitted, but in a few cases, they are transmitted through indirect contact. The main one is that family members are infected when they come into contact with the patient's secretions.

2. Sexually transmitted diseases are all sexually transmitted diseases

It seems that everyone generally believes that sexually transmitted diseases are sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, there are many sexually transmitted diseases, about hundreds of them. For example, Helicobacter pylori may be sexually transmitted, and Some common bacteria may also be transmitted through sexual contact, but these are not STDs. Currently, there are only 8 types of STDs classified as STDs in my country, such as syphilis, gonorrhea, genital warts, AIDS, genital herpes, chancroid, etc.

3. If you have good personal hygiene, you will not get sexually transmitted diseases

Although the spread of sexually transmitted diseases is closely related to not paying attention to personal hygiene, paying attention to personal hygiene does not necessarily mean that you will not get sexually transmitted diseases. If the person you are having sex with has an STD, even if you pay attention to hygiene after sex, such as vaginal lavage or topical application of drugs, it will not be able to effectively prevent STDs. You must temporarily stop having sex until the STD is cured. Only then can you resume your sex life.

4. Those who get sexually transmitted diseases are sexual promiscuous

Most people believe that STDs are mainly caused by chaotic sexual life. As long as you pay attention to keeping yourself clean, you will not get STDs. However, in many hospitals, in addition to young people, girls, virgins and old ladies may get sexually transmitted diseases.

Everyone must pay enough attention to sexually transmitted diseases, and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases is indeed very widespread. You must understand the misunderstandings about these sexually transmitted diseases, practice good hygiene, practice scientific sex, and never give sexually transmitted diseases a chance to get close to you.
