What are the main hazards of sexually transmitted diseases?

1, endangering personal venereal diseases has great influence on personal health. If the treatment is not timely and thorough, it will cause various complications and sequelae. Sexually transmitted diseases will cause great harm to adults, men, women and children, including acute diseases, chronic diseases, complications, sequelae, tumors and even death. For example, advanced syphilis can cause nerve, cardiovascular and bone damage; Gonorrhea and nongonococcal urethritis (cervicitis) have not been completely cured. Men can cause epididymitis, spermatic cord inflammation and prostatitis, while women can cause endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, salpingitis, tubal obstruction, ectopic pregnancy (ectopic pregnancy), abortion and even infertility.

In addition, sexually transmitted diseases have great psychological trauma to patients, especially after being subjected to pressure, discrimination and intimidation from family and society, which may cause serious psychological burden, affect normal work and life, and even make people lose confidence in life.

2. Sexually transmitted diseases that endanger the family will be transmitted to the spouse at any time. The contaminated daily necessities of patients can also be transmitted to family members, thus causing the spread within the family, leading to marital discord or marriage crisis.

3. Mothers who suffer from sexually transmitted diseases endanger their offspring and may transmit the pathogens of sexually transmitted diseases to their fetuses or babies. Pregnant women with syphilis can be transmitted to the fetus through the placenta, leading to abortion, premature delivery, stillbirth and congenital syphilis. Neisseria gonorrhoeae can infect the newborn through the mother's birth canal, causing the baby to suffer from gonococcal ophthalmia ("pus leaking eyes"). Chlamydia trachomatis can cause neonatal conjunctivitis or pneumonia and increase neonatal mortality. Pregnant women with genital herpes and condyloma acuminatum can also infect newborns.

4. Harmful to society Diseases are also extremely harmful to society. The prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases is closely related to the existence of social phenomena such as whoring, prostitution, multiple sexual partners and drug abuse, and it is also a potential factor causing social instability. The spread of sexually transmitted diseases not only damages patients' physical and mental health, but also affects their working ability, increases the country's economic expenditure and hinders social development.
