Vaginal Rejuvenation
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are a group of diseases caused by an infectious microbe and transmitted to humans mainly through sexual intercourse, including vaginal, anal and oral sex. Some diseases in this group can be transmitted through donating or drawing blood, through injections in drug addicts, through kissing, using the same container, using the same towel, hugging, during birth and breastfeeding. The disease is transmitted by an infectious microbe. Due to their anatomical structure, women contract diseases more easily than men. Since the disease is generally insidious, it can be difficult to diagnose.
Some of the Sexually Transmitted Diseases

HIV virus can be transmitted through any unprotected sexual intercourse. It manifests itself with infections and tumors by weakening the immune system.

Syphilis is caused by the microorganism called Troponema pallidum.
This disease, known since ancient times, can be seen in many parts of the body.
How is it transmitted?
Syphilis is most often transmitted through sexual intercourse. As a result of contact with the genital area, germs are transmitted from the wound on the body.
Oral and anal sex are the most important factors in the transmission of the disease. In rare cases, it can also be transmitted by kissing.
It is very likely that a mother with syphilis will give birth to a stillborn baby. The disease can also be transmitted when the blood of someone with syphilis comes into contact with someone else’s wound.
Symptoms
In stage 1, bacteria spread throughout the body through the blood. After 3 months, the patient experiences joint pain and rashes on his body. Loss of appetite occurs. The wounds in the genital area and lips disappear after 2 weeks.
If left untreated in the second stage, the microbe spreads throughout the body. Hair loss becomes evident. This period of the disease lasts more than 1 year.
Brownish redness begins to appear on the skin.
At the end of all these stages, if the microbe is still in the body, it can take up to 10 years. The disease is not contagious.
The disease can also damage internal organs such as the brain, heart, vessels, liver, and joints. Therefore, early diagnosis is very important.
The most important measures to protect against the disease are the use of condoms and monogamy.
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the herpes simplex virus. There are two types of the virus.
Symptoms

Slightly painful blisters around the genital area and anus
Along with these symptoms, symptoms such as fever, headache and cold are also observed.
Herpes occurs in the genital area after a period of about 2 weeks after infection with the virus.
How is Genital Herpes Transmitted?
Transmission of this virus occurs through oral or vaginal sexual intercourse. It is usually observed as herpes on the tongue and lips.
In case of contact in these areas, the disease is transmitted.
Is There a Treatment?
There is no permanent cure for Genital Herpes. The use of antiviral medication can prevent herpes from occurring to some extent.
Although condom use reduces the transmission of the disease to a certain extent, genital herpes can also be seen in areas not covered with condoms.
