The first signs of HIV, called Acute Retroviral Syndrome (ARS), may feel like the flu, with body aches and a fever. It can last a up to a few weeks.
Millions of people are diagnosed with at least one sexually transmitted disease (STD), or infection (STI) in the United States each year.
Bumps in the genital area might be STDs, but are usually not serious. Treatment is usually for possible infection or to manage symptoms.
STIs are the most common cause of genital sores, but allergic reactions, autoimmune disorders, fungal infections and many other conditions may, too.
Syphilis is an STD that is transmitted by oral, genital and anal sex. Condoms greatly reduce the chances of transmission, but do not eliminate them.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is medication that people who are at risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) may take to prevent infection.
Condoms, when used correctly and consistently, are the most effective way to prevent HIV and STDs.
Normal vaginal discharge varies in color, smell, consistency and amount. If there is a change in the discharge, an infection may be present.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is short-term antiretroviral medication that may help prevent HIV infection if taken shortly after exposure.
Genital herpes can spread through direct, unclothed, skin-to-skin contact, including oral, vaginal and anal sex.
