In today's world and very unfortunately at that, people seem to be only concerned about the more publicized STDs – HIV/AIDS, Genital Herpes, Gonorrhoea, Genital warts, Syphilis, etc – and aren’t even aware of a number of STDs and/or STIs they may currently be living with, posing a serious risk to their health.
This is because, some STDs are asymptomatic and many sexually active individuals are unaware that they have become infected. That is why routine testing is so important. If you know your status, you can seek treatment and/or become cured as well as take the necessary precautions to prevent further spread of the infection. On the other hand, remaining undiagnosed allows these infections to proliferate among your sexual network(s), and this may eliminate viable treatment options, and result in disease progression which can cause other serious illnesses.
In order to mitigate this scourge in our society, below is my short list of generally ignored STDs:
- #Lymphogranuloma venereum: also known as LGV, Lymphogranuloma venereum is a sexually transmitted bacterial infection of the lymphatic system. It is caused by 3 different types (Serovars) of bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. The infection is not caused by the same bacteria that cause genital chlamydia. And it is more common in men.
Symptoms include blood in the stools, genital sores or ulcers, swelling of lymph glands in the genital area and tenesmus - painful bowel movement.
LGV can be treated with antibiotics like erythromycin. And proper use of condom can be adopted as a prevention measure.
- #Trichomoniasis: also known as trich, Trichomoniasis is a very common STD that is usually difficult to feel or detect as it's mostly asymptomatic. It affects more women than men. Trich is caused by a parasitic microbe known as Trichomonas vaginalis. It is passed between penis and vagina. And can also occur in lesbians.
In women, infection occurs in the vulva, vagina, cervix or rarely urethra, while it occurs in urethra and less commonly in the prostrate in men.
Symptoms in men include irritation when urinating or ejaculating. In women, symptoms include smelly yellow-green discharge, itching and discomfort when urinating or having sex.
Treatment is done with an oral antiprotozoal antibiotics like metronidazole or tinidazole.
3)#Moluscum contagiosum: this is a skin infection by a virus known as Molluscum contagiosum virus, which cause lesion on skin surface.
Molluscum contagiosum is spread by direct contact with the lesion of an infected person or by contact with a contaminated object, such as a towel or a piece of clothing. In teens and adults, however, infections are on usually by sexual contact.
The condition is usually asymptomatic but can be very significant in immuno compromised individuals.
There are a wide range of treatment options including cryotherpy, curettage, and laser therapy. Doctors may also prescribe imiquimod, podophyllotoxin, trichloroacetic acid and cantharidin.
In CONCLUSION, it is important to pay attention to the symptoms of these generally ignored STDs and also be very mindful of STDs generally, more especially Chlamydia and gonorrheae to ensure early treatment and avoid complications. If STDs are left untreated, it can result in PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE, which is a precursor to permanent infertility.

一般超过死亡的STDs：知道他们，并采取措施避免感染！
在今天的世界，非常不幸的是，人们似乎只关心更广泛的性传播疾病 - 艾滋病毒/艾滋病，生殖器疱疹，淋病，生殖器疣，梅毒等，甚至不了解一些性病和/或者他们目前可能生活的性传播感染，对他们的健康构成严重威胁。
这是因为某些性病是无症状的，许多性活跃的个体并不知道它们已被感染。这就是为什么常规测试如此重要。如果你知道你的身份，你可以寻求治疗和/或治愈，并采取必要的预防措施，防止感染进一步传播。另一方面，尚未确定的这些感染可能会在您的性网络中增殖，这可能会消除可行的治疗方案，并导致可能导致其他严重疾病的疾病进展。
为了减轻我们社会中的这个祸害，下面是我的一般被忽视的STDs的简短清单：
1）淋巴肉芽肿性状：也称为LGV，淋巴肉芽肿性淋巴肉芽肿是淋巴系统的性传播细菌感染。它是由3种不同类型（Serovars）细菌沙眼衣原体引起的。感染不是由导致生殖器衣原体的细菌引起的。而且在男性中更常见。
症状包括粪便中的血液，生殖器疮或溃疡，生殖器区淋巴腺肿胀和肠胃 - 排便性疼痛。
LGV可以用红霉素等抗生素治疗。可以采取适当的避孕套作为预防措施。
2）滴虫病：也被称为trich，滴虫病是一种非常常见的STD，通常难以感觉或检测，因为它主要是无症状的。它比男性影响更多的女性。 Trich是由称为阴道毛滴虫的寄生微生物引起的。它在阴茎和阴道之间通过。也可以在女同性恋中发生。
在妇女中，外阴，阴道，子宫颈或很少尿道发生感染，而发生在尿道中，而在男性的前列腺中较少发生感染。
男性的症状包括排尿或射精时的刺激。在妇女中，症状包括黄绿色排出物，排尿或发生性交时发痒和不适。
用口服抗原虫抗生素如甲硝唑或替硝唑进行治疗。
3）传染性粘膜炎：这是一种被称为软体动物传染性病毒的病毒的皮肤感染，其导致皮肤表面的损伤。
传染性软疣与感染者的病变直接接触或通过与受污染的物体（例如毛巾或衣服）接触来传播。然而，在青少年和成年人中，感染通常是通过性接触。
该病症通常无症状，但在免疫受损个体中可能非常显着。
有各种各样的治疗选择，包括冷冻，刮宫和激光治疗。医生也可能服用咪喹莫特，鬼臼毒素，三氯乙酸和斑ar素。
结论重要的是要注意这些普遍被忽视的STD的症状，并且还要特别注意STDs，特别是衣原体和淋病，以确保早期治疗并避免并发症。如果STD未经治疗，可能导致PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE，这是永久性不孕症的前兆。
请重新启发更多的人来确保一个更健康的世界。
