What are the physical manifestations of women contracting sexually transmitted diseases? The six major signals for women contracting sexually transmitted diseases should be vigilant
We all believe that only men can be infected with sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, if sexual activity is not clean, women can also be infected with sexually transmitted diseases. Let us understand the six signals of female infection with sexually transmitted diseases.
Indications 1. Increased vaginal discharge, yellow or green pus, often accompanied by pain during urination, increased frequency of urination, and insufficient urine.
Reminder: Gonorrhea
It is worth reminding that some women infected with gonorrhea have no symptoms or mild symptoms, often leading to delayed treatment. But male gonorrhea patients have obvious symptoms, and male gonorrhea is more easily transmitted to males than females. If there is sexual contact with gonorrhea patients, the likelihood of infection in women is 40-60%. Therefore, women should learn to protect themselves and avoid sexual contact with men with symptoms of gonorrhea. If dangerous sexual activity occurs, even if a woman has no symptoms, she should go to the hospital for examination for early diagnosis and treatment.
Leucorrhea increases, appearing as tofu residue, white, caked, and significantly increased in quantity. Often accompanied by internal factors,
The external genitalia is itchy, and the itching is often very strong.
Reminder: Candida (fungal) vaginitis
This disease can be sexually transmitted to others, so it belongs to the broad category of sexually transmitted diseases. Unlike other sexually transmitted diseases, candidal vaginitis is a common vaginal inflammation in women. 75% of women have experienced it once in their lifetime, and 40-50% have experienced it more than twice. From the age of onset, the age of sexual activity around 20 years old is the best age of onset, and the incidence rate above 50 years old is the lowest.
Some women are infected through unclean behavior, such as not paying attention to external genital cleanliness or using unclean toilet paper or sanitary napkins; The widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics kills normal bacteria in the vagina, leading to dysbiosis of the bacterial community and promoting fungal growth; Because of the high blood sugar content, patients with diabetes are prone to be infected with candidal vaginitis.
Vulva itching, leukorrhea increased, can have foam, underwear often has yellow liquid.
Reminder: Trichomonas vaginitis
This disease can also be transmitted to the other party through sexual behavior, and belongs to the broad category of sexually transmitted diseases. Most women suffer from trichomoniasis vaginitis, mainly due to the destruction of the natural acidic environment of the vagina. But the probability of male infection is low, and most of them have no symptoms.
Sign 4. There are ulcers on the surface of the genitalia. The main manifestation is a large shadow with a diameter of about 1 centimeter or a small labial induration, with slight surface rupture. Women usually do not have any discomfort, and ulcers will disappear within about a month.
