Recently, it was reported on the Internet that the US military's STD prevention propaganda pictures in World War II, which used all kinds of words, have temporarily attracted many friends' attention and topics. In fact, sexually transmitted diseases are a group of diseases with sexual contact as the main mode of transmission. Suffering from sexually transmitted diseases will seriously endanger the physical and mental health of patients. So, what are the transmission routes of sexually transmitted diseases? Today, experts will reveal the five main ways of sexually transmitted diseases for you. Let's see what sexually transmitted diseases are!
STD is one of the diseases that everyone hates. If a person has a sexually transmitted disease, everyone will think that he is not clean, and the men are said to be in and out of the sex scene, and the women are said to be narcissistic. The power of public opinion brought by sexually transmitted diseases is still great. Many people believe that sexually transmitted diseases are only transmitted through sexual behavior, and as long as they are clean, they can stay away from sexually transmitted diseases. However, the transmission route of sexually transmitted diseases is not only sexual behavior, but also many.
Uncover the five main ways of sexually transmitted diseases, as follows:
1、 Sexual behavior transmission: The so-called sexual behavior mainly includes kissing, touching, hugging, sexual intercourse, etc. Sexual intercourse is the main route of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases. The reasons for the spread of sexually transmitted diseases caused by sexual intercourse are as follows: 1. The genitals are directly exposed to pathogens. 2. The genitals of both sexual partners are in hyperemia, and the increased pressure in the tissue is easy to cause damage.
2、 Indirect contact transmission: the non-sexual contact transmission between people is relatively small. However, some sexually transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhea, trichomoniasis and fungal infection, can be transmitted through towels, bathtubs, clothes and other supplies. Especially in areas with poor economic conditions and low sanitation level, transmission through indirect contact often occurs.
3、 Blood borne transmission: Syphilis, AIDS and gonorrhea can all have pathogen blood. If the recipient receives such blood, transmission infection can occur. Blood borne infection has the following characteristics: high incidence rate, rapid onset, spanning the course of disease, occurrence of disseminated diseases, and severe systemic symptoms.
4、 Mother-to-child transmission: The placenta transmits the fetus. Syphilis and AIDS are mostly at risk of mother to child transmission. There are three ways of mother-to-child transmission of sexually transmitted diseases: the first is primary infection; The second is retrograde infection; The third is acquired infection.
5、 Iatrogenic transmission: The main reasons are as follows: 1. Poor protection, which mainly occurs to doctors and nurses. 2. Disinfection is not strict. Check the equipment used by the patient, soak and disinfect it after use, and then wash it repeatedly and sterilize it under high pressure. If the disinfection is not strict, the pathogen is not killed and can infect others when used again.
