Chlamydia

Chlamydia has also been found in the throat of a person practicing oral sex. Among women who were infected with chlamydia and was not treated, 40% resulted in pelvic inflammatory disease. Chlamydia can also infect the epididymis or prostate. The epididymis is a small organ attached to the testicle.

HIV

women infected with HIV who develop PID should be followed closely to hospital early and treated with IV antibiotic treatment recommended, if possible. HIV is a virus that is more complex. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is transported in the blood, semen and vaginal secretions. In addition to being transmitted sexually, HIV can also spread by sharing needles used to inject drugs intravenously during blood transfusions or from mother to child (during childbirth or breastfeeding).

Genital warts

Genital warts are not relegated directly to the genitals, strange bumps on any part of your body that you have participated in sexual activity warrant a trip to your primary care physician. Genital herpes can be transmitted even when you use a condom, because the lesions may develop in areas the condom does not cover. It is also possible to transmit herpes even if you do not have visible lesions.

Treatments

The treatment of genital herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV are more involved and complex. The treatment of the mother will be postponed until the child is born.
