STD: Ejaculation not necessary to transmit diseases

First, let’s dispel three two misconceptions regarding STD.

• The sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are not broadcast through mere physical contacts.
• The STDs are not caused by the causative agents identified as bacteria, viruses, protozoa and fungi.
• If an uninfected person has sex with a partner who is also not infected, then one cannot have STD

SEX NOT THE ONLY MEANS THAT TRANSMIT STDS

Then how are the STDs transmitted?

• The STDs do get broadcast from one affected person to another through the body fluids. The body fluids that transport the agents that cause the infection during sexual contact are present in the vagina, anus, and even the eyes, mouth and throat. All these regions of the human body remain moist. In fact, the viruses, protozoa, bacteria and fungi which cause the sexually transmitted infections (STIs) breed in such moist areas.
• In other words, STD can be passed on from one infected person to another even if there is no sex between them. What matters is the body fluid.
• When body fluids of an infected person mix with that of another, STIs can take place. The newly infected partner remains unaware of the STD symptoms which reveal only after the infections have taken roots.

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS & DISEASES ARE SILENT INVADERS

• More often than not, even after the person notices or experiences any of the symptoms that are associated with STD the patient mistakes these signs to be that of other common diseases. This is because at the initial stages, the symptoms of STD resemble those of other common ailments. This dithering allows the infections to spread.
• In fact, the patient must consult the physician the moment any of the symptoms become evident. This helps to keep the infections from spreading further. If they are detected at their early stages the infections can be also cured.
• The most important thing about the treatment is that the patient must take and complete the medications prescribed by the doctor. This goes a long way in neutralizing the infections.
• However, the medications cannot cure any permanent damage that may have been already done by the infections.
• Besides, the infections can return with a vengeance if the treated person again has intimate contacts with an infected person. Simple mixture of body fluids, for instance while kissing, is enough to again infect the treated person.
• The reappearance of the infections is dangerous as the viruses, fungi, bacteria or protozoa develop immunity against the earlier medications. Moreover, the symptoms will conceal themselves for a longer period. By the time the signs reappear, the infections will be already striking at the immunity system of the patient. With time, the STDs will develop.
