These infections can be obtained by sexual contact involving your vagina, penis, mouth, or anus. It is important to be educated on prevention, signs and symptoms, and treatment, as STDs are very contagious and can have serious effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common types of sexually transmitted infections include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chlamydia&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gonorrhea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Genital warts&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Herpes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hepatitis B<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIV\/AIDs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HPV<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pubic lice<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Syphilis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trichomoniasis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Prevention<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>STD\u2019s occur when viruses or bacteria infect you from bodily fluids such as semen, blood, vaginal fluid, or saliva. As they can be very contagious, it is important to protect yourself and others. Using protection such as condoms is an important way to avoid infection, as well as regular screening. It is also important to talk with sexual partners about any diagnoses or history and ask if they have been tested. The HPV vaccine is also a way to prevent HPV. It is most effective when given before becoming sexually active but can benefit people up to 45.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"960\" data-src=\"https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047-1200x960.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4108 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047-1200x960.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047-320x256.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047-768x614.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047-15x12.jpeg 15w, https:\/\/umedoc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/AdobeStock_225684047.jpeg 1280w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1200\/960;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Red aids ribbon on doctor\u2019s hand.National Blood Donor Month in January.
