Sexually transmitted disease
Sexually transmitted disease (STD) is a disease that is transmitted through sexual activity including sex. It used to be called “sexually transmitted disease” until a long time ago, but now it is called “sexually transmitted disease” or “STD” (an acronym for “Sexually Transmitted Diseases”) due to a revision of the law. It was.

Glossary
Gonorrhea (gonococcal urethritis)
The incubation period is 3 to 7 days. In men, symptoms often appear 2 to 5 days after the opportunity for infection, but sometimes symptoms do not appear until 30 days later. [Men] ・Feel a slight itching or heat in the urethra. ・Yellowish pus comes out of the urethra. ・Feel strong pain when urinating. If left untreated, you may experience frequent urination, difficulty in urination, and bleeding at the end of urination, and inflammation may spread to the prostate and epididymis, and may cause infertility. [Women] ・Symptoms may be mild, such as pain during urination or frequent urination, and the person may not notice it. If left untreated, the infection may progress to the uterus and fallopian tubes, causing pelvic infection and infertility. ・Increased vaginal discharge. It is said that pharyngeal gonorrhea is transmitted to the pharynx (throat) through oral sex. When the gonorrhea bacteria (gonococcus) infect the pharynx, symptoms such as swelling, pain, and fever in the pharynx may occur, but there are also cases where no symptoms appear. Treatment for gonorrhea, whether it is the urethra or pharynx, can be completed with one week of oral antibiotics or one infusion. Oral antibiotics may be ineffective if there is a possibility of resistant bacteria infection, in which case intravenous treatment is used.

syphilis
This can be determined by a blood test.The test does not become positive until three weeks after infection.
symptom
Stage 1 (from 3 weeks after infection) - Painless red lumps the size of azuki beans or peas appear on infected areas such as the genitals, anus, and mouth.This becomes latent but resolves spontaneously in 4 to 6 weeks.Most women don't notice it.Stage 2 (from around the end of stage 1) - Red spots appear sparsely on the skin all over the body.- Papules (bumps that rise from the skin) and hair loss on the back of the head are seen.・There is no itching or pain, and if left untreated, the symptoms will disappear on their own in 2 to 6 weeks.At the end of the second incubation period, the disease enters an asymptomatic incubation period that lasts from several weeks to several years.At this stage, it can only be diagnosed through blood tests.Of these, a few 2% progress to the later stage.Late stage (approximately 10 years after infection) Lesions called rubber tumors (hard lumps or bumps that form, destroy surrounding tissue, and leave scars after healing) occur on the skin and internal organs.-Arthritis and loss of sensation in the limbs.・Damage occurs in the heart, blood vessels, brain, etc., making it impossible to carry out daily activities.
Treatment of syphilis
●Administration of antibiotics As a general rule, intravenous drips are not used, and treatment is limited to oral medications.Early syphilis is easily treatable.You may develop a fever of around 38 degrees during the initial period of drug administration.Even if symptoms disappear, there is a risk of recurrence, so treatment is continued until the pathogen is gone. (1-2 months)

Chlamydia
It is the most common sexually transmitted disease. Women often show almost no symptoms, but it can cause infertility in both men and women. The incubation period is 1 to 3 weeks. [Men] - About half of the patients experience difficulty urinating, pain, and discomfort when urinating. - A creamy pus that is thin at first and gradually thickens comes out of the urethral opening. - It can also cause prostatitis and epididymitis. [Women] - About 2% experience increased vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain. - Symptoms are extremely mild, with only one in five infected people showing symptoms. - As it progresses, inflammation progresses to the uterus and fallopian tubes, and it can cause infertility.
Chlamydia treatment
Treatment is completed with one administration.Oral antibiotics are used as the first choice drug.A chlamydia recurrence test is performed one week after taking the medication, and if it is negative, the patient is considered to have been completely cured.

Azalea Condyloma
The main causative viruses are HPV types 6 and 11.
It is treated with an antiviral ointment. It is not painful or itchy. It is necessary to treat it immediately because it can be transmitted to others.
【male】
-Many warts appear on the glans of the penis, coronal sulcus, inner and outer foreskin, and scrotum.
【Woman】
-Many warts can appear on the labia majora and minora, vaginal vestibule, perineum, vagina, and uterine vaginal area.
symptom
There is an incubation period of about 1 to 2 months, and sharp "warts" form on the foreskin and glans.There are no noticeable symptoms, pain, or itching, and warts form and proliferate one after another in a short period of time, often recurring.This is also caused by the fact that the glans is not exposed in many people with phimosis.In rare cases, the virus can be transmitted from saunas and public baths.Even if infected, autoimmune forces may heal the disease naturally in about a year.The incubation period can be long, ranging from 1 to 1 months, and the source of infection may be unknown.
Identification
Some patients develop warts around the glans and are asked if they have warts, but most of them are called Fordyce or pearly penile papules and are not a disease.Fordyce is a spherical wart that is approximately less than 1 mm in size and develops from the penis to the glans constriction, and is an independent sebaceous gland.It is a physiological change that occurs in 65% of adult men and is not related to the virus.Pearl-like penile papules are a condition in which a number of uniformly sized bumps are lined up along the edge of the penis (the so-called bulge on the glans penis).It is a completely harmless physiological change that occurs in 20% of adult men.Foredice is not harmful, but its appearance is bothersome, so it is often treated.Because it is not a disease, it is not covered by insurance, and the average treatment cost is 2 to 8 yen.Even if it looks more like Fordyce or pearly penile papules than warts acuminata, a diagnosis by a specialist is required.Vestibular papillae, which are fold-like or papillary growths at the entrance to a woman's vagina and its surroundings (vaginal vestibule), are sometimes misdiagnosed as genital warts, but these are normal changes that are also called "fairy folds." .Differential points include the fact that it occurs symmetrically on the inside of the labia minora, the nipples are regular, and no blood vessels are visible inside.
test
Generally, genital warts primarily infect the mucosal epithelium, so there are no special tests required, but since they can be accompanied by syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases, general STD tests are recommended.
Treatment
・Drug treatment・Surgery・Liquid nitrogen cryosurgery・Electrocautery excision surgery・Laser beam ablation surgery There is a risk of infecting your partner, and the symptoms often last for a long time with repeated recurrence and waxing and waning, so be sure to receive treatment. It's better.Until now, cryotherapy, surgical excision, and vaporization treatments were the main treatments, but it is now possible to treat it with topical medications.It is a drug that activates the immune system to treat the virus.It suppresses virus proliferation by promoting the production of cytokines, and has a cytotoxic effect against virus infection by activating cellular immune responses.It takes advantage of the patient's own defense mechanism against virus infection. It is thought to cause the lesions to disappear.Although it takes more than a month to heal, it is an effective method.If treated properly, the recurrence rate is low.

Genital herpes
It is caused by the herpes virus, and the first infection may cause fever.Women are more likely to become seriously ill and require prompt treatment.Men develop small blisters on their penis that become ulcer-like, but they will not be effective unless they are taken orally immediately after the onset.
symptom
・Red bumps, blisters, or ulcers (skin sores) appear on the genitals.・When you first become infected, you are often accompanied by severe pain and fever.- In the case of recurrence, the symptoms are often mild, such as small blisters or ulcers.
Treatment
There are three main antiviral drugs to treat symptoms of genital herpes.Preventive treatment with oral and topical medications is also possible.

Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B infection routes include sexual intercourse, blood transfusion, and mother-to-child transmission.The infection rate through sexual intercourse is said to be higher than that of the AIDS virus. Hepatitis B is commonly found in Asia and Africa, so there are many cases of people being infected overseas and bringing it back to their country.There may not be any obvious symptoms, but a blood test can reveal the details of the infection.
symptom
- Along with fatigue and fatigue, you may also experience insomnia, loss of appetite, nausea, slight fever, diarrhea, etc.-Feeling a dull pain around the liver.・As the symptoms progress, it may lead to liver cirrhosis and liver cancer, so be careful.

Hepatitis C
The infection is caused by the hepatitis C virus.It is mainly transmitted through blood contact, but it can also be transmitted through contact with mucous membranes, such as during sexual intercourse.It is not as contagious as hepatitis B.There are often no symptoms, so you won't know if you're infected unless you get tested.
symptom
General malaise, slight fever, loss of appetite, jaundice, dark urine.

Hair lice
Hair lice prefer apocrine sweat glands and live in the pubic hair area. They feed on blood several times a day and lay 1 to 1 eggs a day.Eggs are laid in the pubic hair and are observed as white dots.Adults die if they cannot feed for 2 hours, but eggs remain viable for 3 days.Hair lice, which live on the hairline, suck blood, causing intense itching and blood spots on underwear.
symptom
Itching in areas infested with hair lice.
Treatment
Shaving the hair at the infected area.They will need to be shaved repeatedly to match the egg hatching cycle.The incubation period for lice eggs is around one week, so repeat the process 1 to 3 times every 4 to 3 days.

AIDS (HIV)
AIDS is an abbreviation for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.When infected with the AIDS virus (HIV), the immune system in the body is destroyed, so even weak pathogens such as mold, bacteria, and viruses can cause illness. HIV can also cause encephalitis-like symptoms.Because the immune system is weakened, children become ill because they are unable to suppress the symptoms caused by weak pathogens that they were unknowingly infected with as children. HIV is present in the blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk of infected people.Blood-borne infections are transmitted through blood transfusions and sharing of syringes, and infections through semen and vaginal secretions are transmitted through sexual intercourse. HIV is also present in urine and saliva, but the amount is so small that it is not contagious. The transmission route for HIV is limited, so if you understand how you can become infected and take precautions, you will not infect others in your daily life.
symptom
・In the early stages of infection, symptoms similar to a cold may appear, but in many cases there are no symptoms for a long period of time (on average, about 10 years).・You won't know if you're infected unless you get tested.- After a period of asymptomatic conditions, symptoms such as rapid weight loss, severe night sweats, and diarrhea may appear.・As the disease progresses, the immune system weakens, leading to infections and malignant tumors that would not occur when healthy.

Candita
Candidal vaginitis is caused by the proliferation of mold. It is a disease caused by the proliferation of Candida albicans (a fungus/mold) in the vagina, which everyone has. It is a parasitic fungus that lives in the intestines and is mixed with stool, from which the bacteria often attach. It is said that about 1% of people have Candida bacteria in their vagina. If you are healthy, you will not develop the disease even if the bacteria attaches to your vagina, but if your immune system is weakened due to fatigue or pregnancy, or if you have diabetes or have taken antibiotics for a long period of time, you are more likely to develop the disease. It is more likely to develop when your body is in a state of abnormality such as the change of seasons, when you are taking antibiotics, when you are feeling unwell, or when your immune system is weakened, and is accompanied by itching of the vulva. It can also be transmitted through sexual intercourse.
symptom
- White, cottage cheese-like, crumbly vaginal discharge.
It causes inflammation and severe itching.
As the symptoms progress, a large amount of vaginal discharge may occur, the vulva may become red and inflamed, and severe itching may occur.
[Women] Vaginal tablets, ointments or creams, and oral tablets may be prescribed as treatment.
Treatment will be continued for about a week, and if the effect is not sufficient, additional treatment will be administered or tests will be conducted to see if there are other causes.
[Men] Keep your genitals clean and apply ointments or creams. Men are less likely to get candidiasis, but the risk of infection increases if the penis is uncircumcised.
If symptoms recur, circumcision may improve the condition.

Trichomonas
Although it is transmitted through normal sexual intercourse, Trichomonas is very susceptible to dryness and remains infectious for a long time in water, so it is known to be transmitted on toilet seats and baths.
symptom

【male】
・Most cases are asymptomatic, and even if symptoms are present, they are only mild and cause some discomfort when urinating.

【Woman】
- A foul-smelling white or yellow discharge that contains foam or pus.
I have severe itching in my vulva.
・You may experience pain when urinating or having intercourse.
・If the condition worsens, the vulva will become red and inflamed.

Incubation period

The incubation period for trichomoniasis is said to be as short as three days and as long as one month, with an average of around 3 days.
If there are no symptoms, the incubation period may not be clearly determined.
It is highly contagious and can be transmitted by just one sexual encounter.
It is said that approximately 20-50% of women are asymptomatically infected, but the incubation period varies widely, with one-third of them showing symptoms within six months.
If you are infected with the Trichomonas protozoan, even if you have no symptoms, you may be able to transmit the infection to your partner through sexual intercourse. It has become clear that the increase in vaginal trichomoniasis, especially among young women, is due to sexual intercourse during the incubation period.
Because it is highly contagious, it can be transmitted by sharing the same bath, towels, toilet, etc. as an infected person during the incubation period.

Treatment

・Oral medicines will be prescribed.
