2. Types n Viral n Bacteria n Protozoa n Parasites n Fungi

3. Types of Viral STI’s n HPV/Genital Warts n Genital Herpes n Advanced HIV disease/AIDS n Hepatitis

4. HPV/Human Papaloma Virus/Genital Warts n Skin to Skin n Symptoms occurs 1 -6 months after exposure n Small, bumpy warts on and around genitals n Itching & burning around sex organs n Precursor to cervical cancer in women. n No cure & No Vaccine n Highly contagious

5. Genital Herpes n Symptoms begin 2 - 30 days after infection. n Small painful blisters on sex organ, mouth and anus. n Blisters can last 1 - 3 weeks. n Blistering can reoccur n Contagious while blisters are active! n No cure - No Vaccine n Flu-like feeling/fever

6. Advanced HIV Disease n Several months to several years up to 15. Tests can convey a false negative for up to 6 months. n Attack t -cells, which allow the body to recognize other infections. n People eventually die from it. n No cure - No vaccine! n ELISA blood test. n Patients die of “opportunistic” diseases.

7. Hepatitis n Inflammation to the liver. n Can be spread by intimate contact such as kissing, sharing toothbrush, razors, washcloths, or drug needles. n Yellow skin, nausea, fever and abdominal. n Can be contagious even after signs disappear. n Exchange of body fluids n Vaccine is available.

8. Viral STI’s n Once infected always infected n A vaccine is available for Hepatitis B only, others are possible, but genetic mutation complicates this treatment. n They attack host cells so they can replicate themselves, then attack more health cells. n Cannot live on their own n Immune system produces antibodies, but immune system cannot always prevent an outbreak. n Cannot be treated with Antibiotics

9. Types of Bacteria n Syphilis n Gonorrhea n Chlamydia Produce toxins and enzymes that damage human cells. Most are controllable with antibiotics Neglected, can cause sterility, major organ deterioration, and death.

10. Syphilis n Less common, most deadly of the bacteria. n Primary stage-symptom is a chancre; a painless sore on the infected part. Treatable/Contagious n 2nd Stage: 2 wk. to 6 months-rash can last for up to 6 months. Without treatment it will go away. Treatable/Contagious n Latent Stage-1 to forty years; attack major organs. Permanent damage occurs. Treatable/Contagious n Late stage-health problems like heart damage,blindness, paralysis mental disorders and death. Untreatable, no longer contagious.

11. Gonorrhea n Bacterial infection that attacks the urethra in men and the internal reproductive organs of the female. n 1-14 days after infection- painful,burning urination. n Both males and females will have a discharge- yellow green discharge from the penis; females discharge from the vagina. n If untreated it will cause permanent damage to reproductive organs - causing sterility.

12. Chlamydia n The most common STI. n Bacterial n inflammation of the urethra is called NGU. n It is the leading cause of non-voluntary sterility n Symptoms appear 1- 2wks. After exposure. n Symptoms include painful urination in males; females vaginal discharge, pelvic pain, bleeding, fever, & nausea.

13. Yeast - Protozoa - Parasite n Yeast - imbalance in the healthy bacteria of the vagina. n Protozoa / Trichomonas: Single cell, animal like organism. n Pubic Louse/Crabs and Scabies Tiny insect and mites that live as external parasites on the body.

14. Scabies/Crabs-Pubic Lice

15. Skin to Skin contact; Shared linens; sexual intercourse with an infected person - oral, anal, and vaginal; exchange of body fluids Release enzymes and toxins that destroy human cells or feed off human blood Symptoms - itching, discharge, odor, painful urination, pelvic pain, fatigue, fever, and skin conditions. Treatment - special antibiotics from a doctor and/or over the counter medication. Prevention Strategies - education, abstinence, communication with partner, early detection, and complete medical care. Transmission/Effect/Symptoms/Treatment
